Mountainfilm on Tour North Lake Tahoe

Presented by Rab

As ardent supporters of Mountainfilm's mission, the Alpenglow Sports team travels to Telluride each May to take in the festival and select a compelling batch of films to bring back to North Lake each fall. Mountainfilm on Tour takes some of the best films from the festival on the road to share the sentiment of changing the world through visual storytelling with the rest of America.

In recent years, the team at Alpenglow Sports identified another aspect of their experience at Mountainfilm that they wanted to bring to North Lake Tahoe, in addition to the moving films they saw: hosting multiple nights of films in different venues. As such, we've organized two distinct nights of programming and two unique occasions for our community to engage with the films and each other. Welcome to Mountainfilm on Tour North Lake Tahoe presented by Rab!

Inspiring Films

We curate films that are thought-provoking, educational, and awe inspiring as they relate to themes including adventure, social justice, environment and the indomitable human spirit.

Schedule

Friday 11/1/24

Night 1: Social and Environmental Films

The two night film series begins on Friday 11/1, with an intimate 95-person showing at Alpenglow Sports in Tahoe City. This evening is focused on showcasing films that highlight some of the most pressing environmental, political, social justice, and cultural issues facing our global community. Told from diverse perspectives and voices, these films offer powerful lenses through which we can all learn from and engage with the stories being shared. 

The ultimate goal of this intimate and emotionally moving evening is to build a stronger community by inspiring discussion and fostering unity. Doors open at 6:15pm and the films start at 7pm. There will be a complimentary dinner available from MOGROG Rotisserie, that is included in the ticket price. Additionally, beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages will be available to purchase, and all proceeds from these sales will benefit the nonprofit beneficiary of the evening, Truckee Roundhouse.

Saturday 11/2/24

Night 2: Adventure Films

Mountainfilm on Tour North Lake Tahoe continues for a second night, on Saturday 11/2, at Palisades Tahoe Olympic Village Events Center. This evening will showcase primarily adventure packed films that aim to inspire local athletes to chase their own mountain dreams. A goal similar to that of Alpenglow Sport’s 19 year old Winter Speaker Series. While all of the films share a common adventure component, they also weave in themes of simply being human — resilience, perseverance, community, exploration, love of nature, and passion. 

In addition to the event itself, representatives from popular adventure, ski, and climbing brands will be in attendance for a festival-type atmosphere. Attendees are encouraged to arrive early to enjoy an evening of fun, games, and dinner before the show. Doors open at 5pm and the show starts at 6:30pm. Dinner will be available for purchase, courtesy of MOGROG Rotisserie. There will be a great giveaway with prizes generously donated from the brands in attendance, all to benefit the local nonprofit, Truckee Roundhouse.
