All the same films each night.The Paddling Film Festival kicks off its 2025 world tour with The Complete Paddler hosting the Premiere on February 20th, 21st and 22nd 2025. To make the Film Festival more accessible to all attendees, The Complete Paddler is choosing to host the event in house at our NEW LOCATION, over the course of three days where we will show the same winning films each night. We have loads of free overnight parking available. The Premiere is a special event on the tour as it reveals the winners of each film category, unlike other hosts showing the festival we only play the winners so the films will be a surprise!
We have some amazing door prizes this year included with each ticket! Door prizes will be handed out each night of the festival during intermission. We will also be offering a raffle prize this year, a brand new Prospector 15 SP3 canoe donated by The Complete Paddler and Nova Craft Canoes. The winner of the raffle prize will be announced on Monday February 24th on our website and social media pages! Raffle tickets will be sold separately for $5.00/each or $12.00 for x3 at the event or online.
One hundred percent of the night’s proceeds will be going directly to Project Canoe, a Toronto-based youth charity program which aims to foster a transformative environment for young people using the outdoors as a primary medium.
