Check this out: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFw1zWRRzaI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFw1zWRRzaI) The Ocean Film Festival World Tour 2026 is coming up!
"A breathtaking series of short films that take us through the world's most spectacular marine environments, capturing the raw beauty, untamed power, and majesty of our oceans."
We've gone the past 2 yrs & really liked it, so we're going again.

Note I was able to get a discount for our members. Msg me directly to get the discount code. If you haven't paid your 2026 member dues($5) yet & would like to, msg me for etransfer info.
We'll plan to meet by 620 pm-ish in front of the KFC located across the street, then we'll cross the road to lineup to get in the thtr. There usually are some interesting display tables in the lobby to look at. We'll aim to get seats in Row K &/or L on the West (left) side or middle of the thtre by 645ish.
If you arrive later & want to sit with the group, look for us in Rows K & L and read the Comments for an update re location.
***This event sold out last time & was very crowded***
Afterwards, if there's interest we'll walk down to a nearby casual cafe for a quick drink & chat if time allows(they close at 11)
This event will be a combo of speakers & films, not just films.
If you're driving, note that there is construction & the parking is limited near the thtr. I recommend parking on the West side of Lonsdale on W. 22nd, 21st or 20th St if you can.
More fun things:
