Vancouver Festival of Ocean Films

Ocean Films

May 24, 2016

Join us on June 5th, 2016 at the Vancity Theatre from 4pm-11pm for another great day of ocean films.

In its 7th consecutive year, the Vancouver Festival of Ocean Films (VFOF) inspires audiences to consider their relationship with the ocean through regional and international documentaries that focus on adventure, sport and the global issues that our waters currently face.

Through experiences with our oceans, the VFOF aims to educate, motivate and excite audiences.

Find out what’s in store and what’s new this year by following updates on Facebook and Twitter or search using the hashtag #VFOF.

This year’s festival is presented by MEC, with support for Vancity (Pender Ave Branch), Shelter Island Marina and the Georgia Straight.
