Patagonia is pillar of activism in the surf and outdoor industry. They build the best products, cause no unnecessary detriment to the environment and have a lot of fun while doing it! Climate crisis is an existential threat, and every part of Patagonia’s business is implicated. We must radically reduce carbon emissions by transforming how we make our products. We must also double down on our work to help communities get off fossil fuels and protect nature, the original climate solution.

Sawmill beers will be up for grabs at our screenings this year. They will also be sponsoring ‘Best Film Soundtrack.

YETI Coolers was founded with a simple mission: build the cooler you’d use every day if it existed. These coolers are built for the serious outdoor enthusiast rather than for the mass-discount retailers and today are the cooler of choice for outdoor enthusiasts and backyard barbecue kings.

About as iconic in Aotearoa as Manu Bay! Coastlines have been keeping surfers warm in the water since the mid 80's. Today they make premium suits for more than just the act of surfing. They're a silky smooth product designed for the diverse waters of Aotearoa. From the Sub-Antarctic waters of Southland to the Sub-Tropics of the Far North, Coastlines have a variety of wetties for all climates. Thanks to their support, one lucky viewer for each screening will head home with a Coastlines Wetsuit. Yeeha!
