Supporters Rally to Keep Sundance Film Festival in Utah


Utah leaders, locals, and longtime attendees are advocating to keep the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, its home for 41 years. With a final decision expected by early spring, discussions include a potential move to Salt Lake City, Cincinnati, or Boulder or staying in Utah with proposed state funding of $3 million. Colorado is offering tax incentives and Cincinnati has allocated $2.5 million to lure the festival. Concerns include the festival outgrowing Park City and becoming exclusive. Supporters argue for a more centralized, affordable, and accessible location for all independent film enthusiasts.

Donors, festival attendees, and industry professionals expressed mixed feelings about a potential move outside Utah, with many emphasizing the unique atmosphere in Park City. Advocates like Dr. Rhonda Taubin are distributing stickers to show the festival’s importance to the local community. Former festival director John Cooper stressed the importance of preserving Robert Redford’s vision for Sundance. While some argue that Sundance’s identity is tied to Park City, others believe it can maintain its spirit in a new location. Discussions continue as the festival considers its future home.
