The highlight of the two-day festival is the showing of ‘The Frozen Road’ following Yorkshireman Ben Page’s solo bike journey across the Canadian Arctic.

Tour Director Nell Teasdale said: “This is the first time we’ve topped 100 shows in the UK and Ireland, which is really exciting, so we’re delighted to be able to share these amazing films and their intrepid characters with wider audience.”
