2026 Surf Film Festival

2026 Surf Film Festival — Presented by Tidal Connections

Join us for a relaxed, inspiring evening of surf cinema, empowerment, and community.

This special Surf Film Festival brings together a beautiful selection of thought-provoking films that celebrate the ocean, connection, and collective wellbeing. Presented by Tidal Connections community, the event is a fundraiser for Groundswell Scotland SCIO, a Scottish registered charity delivering environmentally based surf-therapy programmes that enhance and restore wellbeing while helping to revive our coastal catchment areas.

Expect powerful storytelling and stunning visuals from filmmakers including Ciebo, @surfyonder and @seapeafilms generously sharing their work to support this cause. It’s shaping up to be a truly incredible night, curated by an amazing group of surf sisters who’ve poured their hearts into making it special.

Come along with friends, get cosy, and soak it all in.

Plus: a very special raffle with some amazing prizes!
