ACT Natimuk is a not for profit arts organization based in the town of Natimuk. Every year since 2002 it has run a sellout event in the small town. The Goatfest climbing film festival. Created as a way to raise funds to support the organisation, it is open to all who wish to submit a climbing themed film. Be they amateurs or professional. Funds raised this year will contribute to the continuation of the popular Circus Jam program. And this year we are excited to add the Reel Rock film tour to the evenings presentation.
The festival is a much loved event on the climbing community calendar. It is an opportunity for climbers to create and view films and to enjoy the global camaraderie that is part of being a member of this great community. Goatfest is run by volunteers And the ACT Natimuk fundraising bar will be keeping you hydrated throughout the night. There are prizes for Jury Choice, Audience Choice and Kids Prize.

Sachi Style - Follow the philosophical journey of Japanese climbing phenom Sachi Amma, as he evolves from three-time world champion to traditional climbing purist, culminating in a visionary first ascent on the mythical Mt. Mizugaki.
Climbing Never Die - Climbing journalist Matt Groom journeys deep into war-torn Ukraine to discover a community held together by climbing and patriotism, but indelibly changed by war.  Jirishanca - Renowned alpinists Josh Wharton and Vince Anderson attempt a free ascent of the Jirishanca, an epic 20,000-foot peak in the Peruvian Andes. The duo will have to tackle 5.13 face climbing, horizontal ice roofs, technical mixed terrain and treacherous snow mushrooms as they reconcile the inherent risk of climbing with their love of alpine adventure.
