If you came last year, you'll remember that GIFF Weekend is your chance to watch the entire reel of all the films that have made the final of the 2017 Geocaching International Film Festival.

Over this weekend only, geocachers all over the world are hosting geocaching events at which these films will be shown publicly for the first time. So pop your popcorn, grab a friend, and get ready-it’s a global geocaching movie event!

The theme for this year's entries was 'The Art of Geocaching. 'The finalists will be announced on 15th September 2017

There will be an official Groundspeak virtual souvenir displayed on the profile page of each cacher who attends a GIFF event as well as a bespoke one for this particular event

The films themselves will be shown between 2pm and 3pm but come along at 1.30pm for pre-movie banter, trackable swapping etc. After the event there'll be time for discussions etc. Children are welcome with an accompanying adult.

There will also be a raffle to help cover the costs of hiring the venue. Prizes have been donated by North East Geocaching Supplies, The Podcache Show, The Yorkshire Mega Committee, BG Lincoln Ltd, UK Cache Mag, Boo Quilts & Crafts and several others. Any profits will go to the 2018 UK Mega in Yorkshire.

Snacks and drinks are available before and after the show in the University Refectory. Tables have been reserved for us from 3pm

Any unfinished geo-talk can continue there for those interested, and will continue after the event itself.
