MOFF has been bringing outdoor adventure and conservation films to Mainers where they are since the festival’s very first screening in The Forks back in 2012.

Our team is proud to partner with organizers in over 20 Maine towns to bring MOFF to Mainers where they are this late summer and early fall.

Head to our website to see where MOFF is headed on the Selects Tour following our Portland festival: https://maineoutdoorfilmfestival.com/selects-tour-2026/

Remember, all of these screenings will have a completely different set of films, so be sure to stay tuned for when the films are announced later in the year. See you out there friends!

Are those high 60s in the forecast?!

Soon we'll be reminded of the magic in Maine's summer evenings with pink sunsets, soft grass beneath our bare feet and the smell of salty air as we gather with our community on this extraordinary piece of coastline.

We hope you'll join us in spending time in the very nature that inspires our festival -- as we'll end every night of our 6-day run with an outdoor screening by the water of short adventure and environmental films.

Passes to our 2026 summer festival are available now: https://maineoutdoorfilmfestival.com/2026-passes/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=2026_pass_launch

Filmmakers! MOFF invites you to submit to the first-ever MOFF Pitch 🎥

The MOFF Pitch connects filmmakers with Maine organizations seeking to align their brands with films centered on nature, outdoor recreation, environmental conservation, education, and adventure travel, creating an avenue for meaningful partnerships and providing valuable support for independent filmmakers.

The MOFF Pitch is open to emerging and established filmmakers ages 18 and up. (Note: you do not have to be a Maine filmmaker to qualify). Projects must be in production or post-production. Projects should be 5-30 minutes in length including credit and should focus on character-driven or place-based stories centered on connection to nature, outdoor activity or education, conservation / environment or adventure travel. The winner will be awarded $2,000 to support the completion of their film.

The MOFF Pitch is supported by the Maine Film Office

🚨 UPDATE 🚨 Due to the forecast, this screening has been cancelled. The Hearts are still playing, but we had to call off the screening because our equipment doesn't compete well with rain! We'll be cheering them on from home nonetheless.

UP THE FRIGGIN' HEARTS! ♥️🌲

Portland's favorite footballers are playing away in Omaha at 8PM on Saturday, May 9, but that doesn't mean we can't gather to root them on.

Join MOFF and our friends OUTSIDE at the Payson Park Triangle for an (unofficial) watch party under the stars on the Back Bay.

- Saturday, May 9th
- Game begins at 8pm, but come early to get a seat.
- Bring a camp chair, blanket and snacks
- Please carry out all your trash
- No tickets required
- Thanks to Sarah Delisle at Portside Real Estate Group , Courtney Sweeton and Bryan Daley - Bangor Savings Bank for the help!

Happy Earth Day, friends. 🌏 We like this place!

We're sending Mother Earth an extra measure of love and positive energy today. It's a warm reminder to spend some time outside in the very places that inspire our festival and reflect on how we can care for this home we share.

In that spirit, we're looking forward to gathering with you this Friday at the Portland Museum of Art for Maine's Seaweed Moment, an evening of programming on the remarkable potential of seaweed and its environmental benefits for Maine and the world. We can't think of a better way to celebrate the earth than with the chance to come together for a night of community, learning, and inspiration around ways to support a healthier planet.

All of the proceeds will benefit our friends at the Maine Seaweed Council 🌿

Are you looking to get outside this summer? ☀️🥾

Our trails and outdoor spaces don’t green themselves!

Volunteering is a great way to get outside, to move your body and to help outdoor nonprofits across Southern Maine.

The Maine Outdoor Film Festival is joining a bunch of other local outdoor orgs at a casual happy hour at Bissell Brothers to connect with local outdoor and environmental organizations looking for volunteers (including trail work, events, committees, water monitoring, and more!). Learn about opportunities to lend a hand, meet like-minded folks, and find ways to get your hands dirty for a good cause.

All are welcome at this Outdoor Volunteer Opportunity Meetup! 🌲

Join us:
📍 Bissell Brothers (Thompson’s Point, Portland)
📅 Thursday, March 12, 2026
⏰ 5–7 PM

Outdoor orgs: Interested in representing your org at this event? This is meant to be a super light lift. DM or Email [email protected] for the link fill out our form.

See ya Thursday!
