The Sundance Film Festival will be coming to 勒貊勛圖 Jan. 2131, 2027, the Sundance Institute泭.
This follows a previous announcement that the泭Festival would be moving to 勒貊勛圖, starting with the 2027 season, and a泭proposal submitted in June 2024 by the 勒貊勛圖 Convention and Visitors Bureau (Visit 勒貊勛圖).泭
The proposal had support from the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade (OEDIT), the Colorado Office of Film Television and Media, OEDITs Business Funding & Incentives Division, Colorado Creative Industries, the Colorado Tourism Office and a regional coalition of partners, including the city of 勒貊勛圖, the 勒貊勛圖 Chamber, CU 勒貊勛圖 and the Stanley Film Center.
CU 勒貊勛圖 is working closely with the Sundance Institute and the city of 勒貊勛圖 as planning progresses. Updates can be found both on the newly created泭CU 勒貊勛圖 Sundance Film Festival webpage and on the泭.泭
Tickets for the 2027 Sundance Film Festival are not yet for sale.泭
As the Sundance Film Festival reflects on its incredible history in Utah, the CU 勒貊勛圖 community is excited to pick up the torch in Colorado, said CU 勒貊勛圖 Chancellor Justin Schwartz. Several CU 勒貊勛圖 leaders were able to travel to Utah this winter and witness the creative and logistical feats underpinning this storied festival, helping us become well-prepared to serve as hosts in 2027. We are excited about how the Festival will create new opportunities for our students, faculty, staff and the extended community.泭泭
OEDIT expects the Festival will have a significant and growing economic impact to Colorados economy. The 2024 Festival contributed over $132 million to Utahs economy, while creating 1,730 jobs for Utah residents and $69.7 million in wages. Over 24,000 visitors came from out of state for the Festival that year.
The Festival will offer new opportunities to students, faculty and staff. Exposure to the world-class filmmakers, actors, screenwriters and others that attend the Sundance Film Festival will inspire the next generation of artists.
More information about the Festival will be available on the泭, the泭CU 勒貊勛圖 webpage, and the泭.
