VENUE

Our films are usually shown at The Metro Cinema, located inside the historic Garneau Theatre. In light of the pandemic, please stay tuned for updates on future screenings.

VOLUNTEERS

Our festivals would not run without the help and time donated by our volunteers. When we are able to meet in person again, we will have an application form available here.

“If you’re a documentary fetishist looking for any flavour of cinematic journalism, Edmonton’s NorthwestFest is the absolute best festival of the year — full stop.”
