The BFF Celebrates 10 Years of Bicycles, Art, Film, & Culture with Three Days of Events in Lisbon, October 7-10.
The Bicycle Film Festival is an arts and cultural event that celebrates the bicycle. The festival brings together many creative communities, including fashion, music and art, as well as various bicycling communities—road racing, mountain biking, fixed gear, BMX, and bike polo—over a shared passion for bike riding. 300,000 people are expected to attend globally this year.
We are proud to announce the Bicycle Film Festival’s second year in Lisbon, and the tenth anniversary of the international Bicycle Film Festival. In tandem with the growth in urban cycling, the BFF has spread all over the world to 40 cities from its roots in New York City into a multi- faceted, international event that travels from Milan to Tokyo, Minneapolis to Sydney.
In 2001, Brendt Barbur, Founder and Director, was compelled to start the Bicycle Film Festival after being hit by a bus while riding his bike in New York City. Instead of being deterred by this experience it inspired him to create a festival that celebrates the bicycle through music, art, and film. Now in its tenth year the festival is held in 37 cities worldwide.
Film Screenings in Lisbon will be held at Teatro CINEARTE, Largo Santos. Free bicycle valet parking will be provided at the screenings.
