Rise-Festival France merges with F3T for an explosive 2026 season

Rise 2026

The Rise-Festival France, the French adaptation of the prestigious International Fly Fishing Film Festival initiated by Nick Reygaert of Gin-Clear Media in New Zealand, has just sealed a major merger with the Fly Fishing Film Tour (F3T). This recently announced alliance guarantees cinematic evenings of breathtaking imagery, featuring renowned international productions.

Collective success at the heart of the project

Behind this success are the fly-fishing enthusiasts without whom nothing would be possible: filmmakers, spectators and local organizers turn every screening into a real party. The festival makes it a point of honor to promote French talent, favoring a predominantly French program and distributing grants to raise the quality of local films. Motivated local relays, backed by financial partners, ensure the eventâ??s influence and support for emerging creators.âeuros
