The CALL Film Festival brings film stars and Reinhold Messner to Bad Hofgastein.
From May 28 to 31, the CALL Film Festival will take place in Bad Hofgastein for the very first time. Featuring numerous national and international stars and legends, the festival is built around a clear theme — “Movies with a Cause,” cinema with a stance and films driven by a purpose — and will present the world’s first cinematic retrospective dedicated to trailblazer Reinhold Messner.
It promises to be a star-studded event unlike anything the Gastein Valley has seen in years. Two highly relevant program focuses will take center stage at the inaugural CALL Film Festival 2026: “CALL for Nature” and “CALL for Peace,” addressing two of the most pressing issues of our time. Bad Hofgastein will welcome a wide range of prominent personalities who will present films and engage with audiences on stage, in discussions, and in masterclasses.
Further information, tickets, festival passes, hotel bookings (including discounts for festival guests), and press accreditation will be available online from April 30 at:
