Puerto to host new RollFestival with films linked to extreme sports

RollFestival will turn Puerto de la Cruz into the “capital” of extreme sports in September. This international event wants to become a platform for the dissemination of all audiovisual creation linked to extreme sports. The festival will take place on September 7th and 8th at Playa de Martiánez and will distribute important cash prizes. “The new Extreme Sports Audiovisual Festival of Puerto de la Cruz, ‘RollFestival’, reaches the tourist city with a clear objective: to provide the Canary Islands with an audiovisual works exhibition platform related to extreme sports, risk and adventure,” said one of the organisers. “It will have the participation of some of the most important national and international athletes.” Along with the screening of films in different formats, complementary activities such as live music, tastings of international meals, exhibitions and activities for all audiences will be carried out, which will turn Puerto de la Cruz into the ‘capital’ of extreme sports. The streets, squares and public spaces of the Martiánez area will become the natural scenes of this international event, enhancing the environmental character as one of its fundamental purposes. In the words of the organisation, the festival aims to be “a platform for the dissemination of all audiovisual creation linked to risky and extreme sports; skydiving, bungee jumping, parkour, mountaineering, abseiling, paragliding, rafting, surfing, skateboarding, wingsuiting, kitesurfing and any type of sport that requires a large dose of adrenaline.” “This will be a unique opportunity to enjoy an international film festival, where extreme sports, leisure, adventure and strong emo-tions will meet in an in-comparable setting,” said sports councillor, Javier González. Tourism councillor, Dimple Melwani, valued the Roll-Festival as an opportunity to “promote Puerto de la Cruz from a unique tourist setting, the Playa de Martiánez and Avda. De Colón, from another facet, the audiovisual where the binomial of tourism and sports are once again protagonists, in line with the tourist positioning we are developing.” To consult the rules for the competition element, visit the festival website (www.rollfes-tival.com) or any of its social networks.
