On behalf of the Whistler Film Festival Society, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the Whistler community for helping us celebrate the 24th annual Whistler Film Festival. This year’s festival was a true reflection of the magic that happens when creativity, collaboration, and community spirit come together.
As a charitable arts organization, we are deeply grateful for the enthusiastic support received from residents, businesses, and organizations that helped make this year’s event a success. A special thank you goes to our Whistler-based community partners whose contributions played a vital role in creating memorable experiences for our guests and audiences.
From the tireless efforts of local volunteers to the generous support of Whistler businesses that provided venues, accommodations, and services, your dedication to fostering a vibrant cultural scene is inspiring. Key partners helped us showcase the best in Canadian and international film and welcome industry and special guests (including this year the Irish Ambassador to Canada for our Country of Focus) while continuing to position Whistler as a hub for arts and culture (find a full list of sponsors at whistlerfilmfestival.com).
The festival relies on community support throughout the year and welcomes donations, particularly as the year draws to a close. Donations can be made via whistlerfilmfestival.com/donate.
A special shoutout to Ann Chiasson who was the driving force behind this year’s Rock the Fest Fun*raiser that raised more than $50,000 to support the Whistler Film Festival Society.
The festival’s success belongs to all of us, and we couldn’t be more proud to be part of such a supportive and passionate community. Thank you, Whistler, for joining us on this journey, and we look forward to celebrating our 25th anniversary with you next year!
