A FILM festival showcasing ocean-themed films is set to arrive in Dorset this autumn.
The Ocean Film Festival World Tour will be coming to Christchurch, Poole and Weymouth with a collection of short films from above and beneath the waves.
Tour director Nell Teasdale said: “Dive into a night of wild seafaring voyages and astounding marine life – without getting your feet wet.
“We’re so excited to be bringing this brand-new collection of captivating films to ocean-loving audiences around the UK – and we guarantee you’ll be inspired to have an ocean adventure of your own too.”
For 2022, the Ocean Film Festival have partnered with PADI, the world’s largest diver organisation.
Rachel Croft, marketing manager at PADI, said: “Both PADI and Ocean Film Festival are advocates of the ocean and we both strive to bring people together to celebrate and protect our amazing ocean planet.
"Partnering with likeminded organisations like Ocean Film Festival enables us to unite our passions and work together towards a healthy future for people and planet.”
The tour will be visiting the Weymouth Pavillion on September 20, the Regent Centre in Christchurch on October 20, and the Lighthouse Theatre in Poole on November 16.
