It’s time again for the Sundance Film Festival, with 2020 marking the independent film festival’s 35th year. This year’s fest runs from Jan. 23 to Feb. 2 and will showcase 118 feature films from 27 countries, short films and documentaries, as well as 20 premieres of hotly anticipated movies.
Just as anticipated are the slew of Sundance pop-up parties, music events, dinners and more — there’s even a spa experience in the mix this year — that make the first long weekend of the festival a swirl of familiar faces wearing big parkas and sturdy snow boots. With a clear but cold forecast for the coming weekend, we’re expecting to see plenty of Hollywood’s hottest stars wandering the Wasatch.
Unless otherwise noted, all events are by invite only and are happening in Park City, so plan your dance card before you even get on the plane to ensure access.
