Whistler Film Festival

Name: Whistler Film Festival
Start: 2020-12-01
End: 2020-12-20
Location: Whistler, BC

December 1 – 20, 2020

Canada’s Coolest Film Fest celebrates 20 years in 2020 with virtual events over 20 days, from December 1 to 20. The Whistler Film Festival will be presented as an online experience featuring film premieres, filmmaker and talent talks, and industry initiatives all scheduled for streaming convenience.

2020 Film Lineup

The lineup will include up to 30 new feature films and five short film programs and organizers are also exploring ways to combine the virtual aspects of its programs with plans for an adapted five-day physical edition from December 2 to 6 in Whistler to premiere its slate of films to a regional audience. All physical premieres would be physically-distanced screenings contingent on the province's reopening framework to ensure that festival venues and workplace practices meet and exceed public health guidelines.

WFF will begin announcing 2020 programming in September 2020, including confirmation of a physical edition if possible, with passes and tickets available for purchase at that time.

Whistler Film Festival's Content Summit industry programming will be delivered virtually over the three week period to connect filmmakers with decision-makers and the marketplace, and will feature interactive information sessions, practical workshops, intimate conversations and masterclasses, virtual “Whistler Aprés” networking opportunities and one-on-one meetings.
