In 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 100% of the audience said they would come back again and recommend it to a friend.
Why?
Because we go the extra mile to make sure that it's the audience that is looked after first and foremost.
ShAFF is all about FILMS. We sometimes run lectures and panels, there are photo exhibitions, youth development projects, parties, live music and more, but above all, we concentrate on the films.
Without a shadow of doubt ShAFF manages to pull together the best line up of adventure films over a single weekend, anywhere, every year!
What's more, it takes place in the biggest independent cinema outside of London, recently voted best cultural venue in the region.
ShAFF Film Competition: The 50 or so films each year include award winners from Kendal, Banff, Graz, Trento, Telluride, Edinburgh, Vancouver, Llanberis and some that haven't even been screened yet. The programme is organised into blocks of films themed to suit your tastes. Simply watch as many blocks as you have the time for.
Other Stuff at ShAFF. The line-up changes from year to year, but you can rest assured that there will always be plenty to do as well as watching films. Just check out the 'Other stuff' page for details.
