About TMFF

Motorcycles bring us together.

TMFF exists to celebrate motorcycle culture through exceptional films and unforgettable shared experiences.

Founded in Toronto in 2017, we've grown from a single weekend of screenings into a touring festival that brings riders, filmmakers, artists, builders, and curious newcomers together across Canada and beyond.

Every event begins with great films. What people remember, though, are the conversations afterwards, the filmmakers they meet, and the feeling of sharing a room with people who understand why motorcycles matter.

Stories move us.

At its heart, TMFF is about stories.

Stories of adventure. Craft. Friendship. Identity. Loss. Resilience. The people who choose to experience the world on two wheels.

Films tell us why.

Motorcycles have always brought people together. Films help us understand why.

They reveal the friendships formed on long rides, the obsession behind a custom build, the quiet moments between adventures, and the resilience that riding often demands.

Every film we select reflects the values that define motorcycle culture. That's why we spend months reviewing submissions from around the world, choosing only the stories that deserve a place on the big screen.
