It has now grown into the largest and most renowned international event for independent filmmakers, screenwriters, composers, writers, playwrights and theatre artists. This 10 day festival provides you an opportunity to get in on all the action in tinsel town.

The Sundance Film Festival is a star studded and popular event, locally as well as nationally. Previous years have seen Jennifer Aniston, Joan Cusack, Catherine Kreener and other celebrities. Therefore, it would be wise to make plans early to attend this unbelievable event since movie tickets, lodging and other
Park City accommodations sell out fast. As the world's largest independent film festival the Sundance Film Festival draws large crowds of movie aficionados, celebrities and artists alike.
Events and film screenings will take place around town and in Salt Lake City the Sundance House at the
Kimball Art Center shall serve as the hub of the festival. It offers Festival filmmakers and audiences a casual place to get together on Main Street.
