Reel Paddling Film Festival - Barrie, Ontario

This event is hosted by the Barrie Canoe and Kayak Club. Due to popular demand, we are again including a special Saturday matinee. This will be a shortened presentation of films for the younger crowd with a reduced admission. Children 10 and under will be admitted free to the matinee.

Once again, local vendors will be participating and giving door prizes at the evening performances. Note that different films will be shown Friday and Saturday evenings.

Rapid Media's 8th annual Reel Paddling Film Festival showcases the world's best paddling films to audiences in Canada, United States and around the world. The festival inspires more people to explore rivers, lakes and oceans, push physical and emotional extremes, embrace the lifestyle and appreciate the heritage of the wild places we paddle.

The Reel Paddling Film Festival is a film contest awarding winning films in 10 categories. The winners and other shortlisted films are then toured to more than 100 cities around the world, screening for an audience of more than 30,000 outdoor adventure enthusiasts and their friends and families.

The Reel Paddling Film Festival is produced by Rapid Media. Rapid Media also publishes four leading paddlesports magazines: Rapid, Adventure Kayak, Canoeroots and Kayak Angler magazines. Your ticket to a Reel Paddling Film Festival World Tour stop includes a free one-year digital edition subscription to one of the above magazines.
