Founded in 2001, the Whistler Film Festival Society (WFFS) is a registered charity committed to celebrating, promoting and developing a strong film industry in Western Canada, and to showcasing the best films from Canada and around the world.
Each year, the Whistler Film Festival presents a selection of 60+ films from Canada and around the globe, including premieres from some of North America’s top directors, and awards over $45,000 in prizes and commissions. The five-day extravaganza also features lively festival celebrations, tributes to distinguished filmmakers, a free outdoor screening and the annual Celebrity Challenge ski race.
