Get your tickets for the Banff Mountain Film Festival

Once we get past today — assuming we do get past today — we're all going to need a break from the political campaigning that has been thrown at us for the past year or more. And you'll find no better break than the movies.

One annual movie event that attracts crowds to downtown Spokane is the Banff Mountain Film Festival. An array of short films, one that claims to offer "The World's Best Mountain Films," is the traveling version of the festival that is held each year in Banff, Alberta, Canada (this year Oct. 29-Nov. 6).

This year's event will be held over three days (Nov. 18-20) at the Bing Crosby Theater. For ticket information, click here.
