🗓️ Tue 31 March 2026
For the 14th year running, the Aotearoa Surf Film Festival is rolling into towns across the motu — bringing with it a healthy dose of salt-water cinema, surf culture, and storytelling stoke.
Join us for a curated night of world-class surf films, featuring standout stories from Aotearoa and across the globe. From local lineups to far-flung coastlines, this year’s programme celebrates the art of wave-riding in all its forms.
