  The PADDLING FILM FESTIVAL has arrived in Australia for its first national tour! The PADDLING FILM FESTIVAL is like other touring film festivals in that it includes a selection of short films, however, this tour is dedicated entirely to paddle sports such as whitewater, sea kayaking, canoeing, SUP and more.

  The PADDLING FILM FESTIVAL has been running for 13 years based out of Canada and tours more than 120 cities annually around the globe. Audiences will see hairy whitewater action, sea kayakers exploring remote coastlines, northern river canoe expeditions, international river travel films, motivating environmental documentaries and gruelling kayak fishing battles.

  Attracting paddlers and outdoor enthusiasts, audiences can expect a fun, social and entertaining event inspired by compelling films. Join us for the inaugural season of the PADDLING FILM FESTIVAL in Australia.
