Whistler, BC, October 21st, 2023 - Following four days of premieres, parties and the gathering of the snow sports community in Whistler, British Columbia, Canada and beyond, the iF3 Festival concluded earlier tonight with the iF3 Movie Awards presented by Rossignol.
The gala, which took place at the Maury Young Arts Centre in the heart of
Whistler Village, was once again hosted by the Low Pressure Podcast’s Mark
Warner and professional snowboarder Leanne Pelosi, and broadcasted live on
festivalif3.com.
Over the course of the night, 25 awards were handed out to the year’s top ski
and snowboard films, which were watched and judged by the iF3
Jury—composed of Forecast Ski Magazine’s Jeff Schmuck, filmmaker Graeme
Meiklejohn and professional skiers Will Wesson and Amy Jane David on the ski
side of things, and industry veterans Guillaume Morisset and Hugues
Beauchamp alongside filmmaker Ralph Samson on the snowboard panel—after
a record-breaking 121 films were submitted to the festival for consideration.
