  • NEW as of Feb 4th 2021!! Film Descriptions: SAPPHIRE Program (don't be dissuaded by "only" three films in this program! Piano to Zanskar won best film overall in 2019 and is a wonderful adventure / culture / inspirational film)
  • NEW as of Feb 4th 2021!! Film Descriptions: RUBY Program
  • Film Descriptions: ONYX Program
  • Film Descriptions: AMBER Program
  • Check out the 2020 World Tour virtual magazine! 

UPDATE as of Nov 9, 2020: As with many things in our lives, the Covid-19 Pandemic has impacted the 2021 World Tour. This year we will be working with the Banff Centre for Performing Arts to bring the World Tour to Grande Prairie on a virtual platform. Please see the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) above for full details on this year's World Tour.

As a not for profit society, the World Tour is Wapiti Nordic’s major annual fundraiser. And because we cannot sell out the GPRC theatre for three nights as we usually do, our fundraising is going to be greatly impacted in 2021. We hope that local Film Fest enthusiasts will continue to support Banff Centre Mountain Film Festival World Tour and Wapiti Nordic in 2021.

Watch for updates on this webpage and on our dedicated Facebook page (Grande Prairie Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour) as we receive more information from the Banff Centre. There will be ongoing Facebook competitions and challenges too!


Last year >>>> January 2020 Banff Centre Mountain Film Festival - it's a WRAP!
  • A BIG thank you to all attendees of the Jan 2020 event - whether it was 1, 2 or 3 nights - we appreciate you braving the elements to support our annual event!
  • The Stats: Saturday Jan 11th and Sunday Jan 12th shows were sold out 100%; Monday Jan 13th was 93% full
  • We showed 28 films over three nights: Saturday @ 9, Sunday @ 9 and Monday @ 10 films. Of the 100 Film Festival finalists, 37 films were approved for the World Tour, so Grande Prairie saw 76% of them. Phenomenal value for your $60 three night ticket!!
  • See the complete film line up (with directors information) for all three nights. Some can be found on YouTube, Disney Plus app, Netflix or Red Bull TV, including the full length version of some; others not.
  • Apologies for the tiny ticket numbers when it came to draw prizes - we will fix this for the Jan 2021 shows
  • All feedback welcome!
  • Things to consider for next year (as per our Facebook poll): Keep program the same length or shorten? Start shows earlier at 6:30pm or keep at 7:00pm? Offer a Sunday matinee instead of evening show that features more of the family / youth focus films? Invite local outdoor activity groups to set up booths in the foyer? Invite local sponsors? Sell the custom BCMFF limited edition Buff at our event? Assigned or premium seating? Or keep everything the same!! See the bullet above if you would like to share your thoughts & preferences.
