Ruidoso, it's your turn this Saturday, August 22, 2026. Wanderlust Running is presenting the Trail Run Film Festival at Downshift Brewing Riverside in Ruidoso, NM. Doors open at 2 PM, and the featured film begins at 3 PM. It will be held in conjunction with the Ruidoso Grindstone Trail Runs. (You do not have to run on Saturday to attend.)

ABOUT IT... A tradition of storytelling that celebrates the diversity, resilience, and spirit of trail running. The 2026 program features 7 exceptional short films from around the globe — a mix of powerful short works and compelling long-form stories that together reflect a broad spectrum of human experience on the trail.

TICKETS: Available for purchase from the Grindstone Trail Run registration website. Limited seating is available. (You do NOT have to run to attend the film festival.)
