There’s something for every taste! Choose from packages or individual tickets to tailor your Sundance adventure. Go all in or take it one film at a time—the choice is yours.
When & How?
Planning is key! Mark those dates: January 5th for package sales closing before the cinematic extravaganza kicks off on January 18th, and January 11th for single ticket sales. Pro tip: Plan and book your slots pronto. These screenings fill up faster than popcorn disappears at the movies!
Volunteering, Anyone?
Do the giving spirit? Becoming a Sundance volunteer might just be your ticket! Experience the festival from the inside track, catch screenings off-duty, and soak in the buzz. But remember, early birds catch the volunteering worm!
The Chase Sapphire Magic
Hold a Chase Sapphire Reserve® card? You’re in luck! Picture this: a cozy lounge at 573 Main Street in Park City—Chase Sapphire on Main. Flash that card and step into a world of musical performances, exclusive discussions, and a festival concierge. VIP treatment, anyone?
Tips for Your Epic Adventure
Don’t freeze up, literally! Park City in January can be as chilly as an ice queen’s palace. Layer up and don’t forget those sturdy boots. Also, brace yourself for the crowd—it’s a Sundance trademark. Arrive early, stay patient, and claim your spot.
And lastly, keep those energy levels up! Water, snacks, maybe a hefty coffee—or better yet, head to Chase Sapphire on Main if you’re a cardholder. Hydration and good vibes are guaranteed!
