Join us NEXT WEEK at Bicycle Film Festival
Madison, October 1, 6:30pm at The Barrymore Theatre.
One of the best things about Bicycle Film Festival is how it brings us all together.
We need to be together now more than ever.
We can’t wait to make new friends and reconnect with familiar faces.
The program is selling well. It is recommended to purchase tickets in advance.
Our program this year features short films celebrating adventure, love, and connection on the bicycle.
- Two rival cyclists face off in a grueling and surreal cross-Canada cycling race, Le Tour De Canada!
- América, a 10-year-old girl from a remote Andean village, dreams of buying a bicycle so she’ll never be late to class again. Oscar-Qualified Film.
- An Iranian teenager has her beloved bicycle taken away as she reaches puberty. She fights her family and society to get it back.
- Behind abandoned warehouses, BMXers transform forgotten industrial land into world-class trails for community. Sanctuary, Battleground, Redemption.
- Bayden Barrett-Hay, a world class freestyle MTB rider reflects on his journey: “I would rather fail at something I’m passionate about than find success in a career I hate.”
- Lea Davison, a two-time Olympian and one of the most decorated American women in mountain biking, has helped drive MTB beyond the inequities and barriers she encountered.
- And more!

About BFF
In 2001, Brendt Barbur founded the Bicycle Film Festival after being hit by a bus while cycling in New York City. What began as a personal journey became a global celebration of cycling through stories featuring leading voices in art, film, music, and advocacy. 26 years later, the BFF has reached over one million people in more than 100 cities from Paris, Tokyo, Mexico City to Cape Town, Istanbul, and beyond. Hosted in iconic venues like the Sydney Opera House and the Barbican in London, BFF shines a light on cycling culture. We are enthusiastic to bring it back to Madison this year.
Thanks to our sponsors who make our events possible!
