Open Air – Outdoor Cinema
In 2025 8000 people came to the park, so much fun!
In 2026, we’re back with Banff Open Air at Azalea in Slottsskogen.
Kick back in the beach chair or on the picnic blanket and soak up the vibes at the Banff Mountain Film Festival under the stars. As summer winds down, we’ll bring back the crowd-pleasing favorites to the parks, giving you the ultimate outdoor experience. It’s a must-attend event for anyone who loves mountain culture, shredding the slopes, conquering cliffs, hitting the trails on a bike or simply enjoying a magical evening under the starry sky.
We’ll start screening the films once darkness falls, around 9:00 PM, but before that there’s an outdoor flea market, climbing tower, yoga, slackline, food trucks and the chance to make new buddies. The lineup may vary depending on the particular showcase. So come on down and join the fun!
