Welcome to the 8th annual Ombak Bali Surf Film Festival Good films – Good times!

World champions, local heroes, monster waves and gentle rollers from oceans around the globe are all set to light up the big screen on Seminyak beach this year. Surfing can inspire and fuel us. As well as providing adrenalin-soaked thrills, our specially selected films show how surfing can mobilize action and make real changes in the world.
Thanks to everyone for your support, big thanks to the filmmakers who trust us with their films - we know how much hard work and love has been put into them. We are very happy to welcome our new partner, Albens Cider on board, as well as our long time partners Rip Curl, Billabong, Balihigh, Jim Beam, Beach Hut and Bintang. It will be the 5th time La Plancha welcomes us and we can’t wait to kick off opening night.
See you out there
