The DC Adventure Film Festival (DCAFF) is a 3-day festival held in Washington, DC on September 9-11, 2016 at the Burke Theater of the Navy Heritage Center.  The Festival brings the world’s best adventure and action sports films, athletes, and speakers to the East Coast and our Nation’s Capital. 

We are proud to be the first and only adventure and outdoor film festival on the East Coast.  Not only do we curate films that showcase our region but we present award winning films from around the world.

The Festival weekend is much more than a film festival.  DCAFF is an adventure and outdoor celebration for everyone.  Throughout the weekend, we offer films, presentations, book signings, parties, outdoor retail, and daily adventure activities to create a one-of-kind experience.
