The Sundance Film Festival is held each January in Park City, Salt Lake City, and Ogden, Utah. The festival began in 1978 as a means to attract more filmmakers to the state but has grown into the world’s largest international independent film festival, showcasing new films from American and international filmmakers.
Each year, the Sundance Film Festival selects 200 films for exhibition from more than 9,000 submissions. More than 50,000 people attend screenings in Park City, Salt Lake City, Ogden, and Sundance, Utah. In addition to discovering filmmaking’s newest talent through the Festival’s program of documentary, dramatic, and short films, Festival-goers experience live music performances, panel discussions with leading filmmakers and industry figures, cutting-edge media installations, parties celebrating the festival community, and more.
