Really impressed at how Kendal Mountain Player generously splits profits with the filmmakers it showcases. It’s rare to make much money from hosting a short film online, and so I was pleasantly surprised when KMF emailed me.
Duncan Cowles
Stories are the lifeblood of the outdoor community, and films capture them in a way nothing else can. Kendal Mountain Player not only shares these stories beautifully, but also stands out by supporting the filmmakers behind them.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I have a free trial?
Yes - we offer a 7 day trial to explore the platform between January - September.
From the 1st October, the annual subscription (£44.99) will be available for signups and will provide you with instant access to the Player platform and all the films. Alternatively, you can pre-order the 2025 Online Film Festival (£34.99) or Christmas Gift offer (£20).
What is included in a subscription plan?
A subscription gives you access to over 350 Festival films, archive sessions, and speaker events — plus the 2025 Online Film Festival. The Player spans more than a decade of adventure storytelling, with new films added regularly.
What is the 2025 Online Film Festival?
The Online Film Festival is your chance to experience the best of Kendal Mountain Festival from the comfort of your sofa -wherever that may be.
Between 20th November 2025 and 5th January 2026, we make the majority of our 2025 Festival film programme (approx 150 adventure, environmental, and mountain culture films from around the world) available to stream on the Kendal Mountain Player. Plus you will also have access to the existing 350 adventure films from short film collections to life affirming feature films.
While a small number of films may be unavailable due to filmmaker preferences, the Online Film Festival offers an incredible breadth of storytelling, plus full access to our Player’s wider film library throughout the Festival period.
It’s a great option if you can’t make it to Kendal in person — or want to keep the inspiration flowing long after the Festival ends.
Can I watch on my TV or phone?
Yes — stream across phones, tablets, laptops, and smart TVs — casting from your mobile or logging in via browser.
Can I cancel any time?
Yes. Monthly plans can be cancelled anytime; annual plans run for 12 months from signup.
