Northwestfest is an annual Canadian film festival in Edmonton, Alberta, which programs a lineup of documentary films.[1] Organized by Global Visions Festival Society, the event is staged annually at the Garneau Theatre.[2]

Originally launched in 1983 by the Edmonton Learners Centre, the event was known as the Third World Film Festival and concentrated primarily on documentary films about international development.[3] It was rebranded as the Global Visions Film Festival in 1998, expanding its focus to a wider selection of documentary films,[4] and it adopted its current name in 2015.

The event is a qualifying festival for the Canadian Screen Awards.[5]
