In-Person Utah Venues Announced; Redesigned Festival Will Provide More Access, Safety, and Flexibility to the Local Community Than Ever Before
Park City, UT - The Sundance Film Festival announced today the latest details on special locals-only opportunities in person and online for the 2022 Festival, taking place January 20-30. As part of its new Local Lens program, the Festival has planned a selection of free in-person and online screenings, ticket discounts, student screenings, and more. These in-person and online events and locals-only offerings will welcome new and returning film lovers across Utah with more flexibility in how they can participate than ever before, and show appreciation to the Festival's longtime home state.
To aid in planning the 2022 Festival experience, the Festival also outlined the Utah footprint of theater and non-theater venues. The 2022 edition features a tighter venue plan with fewer theaters as a measure to protect the health safety of the community.
With the return of an in-person Festival in Utah, we're looking forward to not only safely bringing together artists and local audiences, but also inviting Utahns to come together online to celebrate storytelling with some special custom perks, said Festival Director Tabitha Jackson. Our filmmakers value and enjoy the chance to get to know our local Festival community up close and personal. We are delighted that this year it will be possible both in person and online, giving Utahns a fantastic range of options in how they choose to participate.
Following are the Local Lens offerings with details on the specific film screenings (the films themselves will be announced in late December, after the Festival program is made public). Locals can prepare for the 2022 Sundance Film Festival by registering online at festival.sundance.org and sign up for Insider emails here. Once the films are announced, details for how to get tickets to the free screenings and how to take advantage of the discount offer will be on the locals page (and more on that below.)
In-Person Free Screenings
For residents in and around Summit and Salt Lake counties, the Festival will offer the following free screenings.
Thursday, January 27:
Two Summit County screenings at the Park City Library and Redstone theaters
One Salt Lake County screening at the Grand Theatre
Additionally, there will be two free Best of Fest screenings in Park City and Salt Lake City on Sunday, January 30, with each venue exhibiting an award-winning fiction and nonfiction feature
from the 2022 Festival.
Two films at the Eccles Theatre in Park City
Two films at the Grand Theatre in Salt Lake City
Online Free Screenings
Utahns from across the state can participate in two free Festival feature film screenings from the comfort of their homes.
On Saturday, January 22, catch a film during the first weekend of the Festival on the online Festival platform.
On Saturday, January 29, locals can log back in for a Best of Fest award-winner film.
Free Screenings for Students
As part of the Sundance Institute | George S. and Dolores Dor Eccles Foundation Student Screening Program, the Institute provides Utah high school students with the opportunity to watch three screenings of feature-length films and/or view a shorts program during the Sundance Film Festival, and then have a conversation with the artists who created it about the film's themes, storytelling, and production. These free screenings engage students with emerging and leading independent filmmakers, introducing them to new perspectives.
The screenings for high school students will be available through the online platform exclusively, allowing young film lovers in grades 9-12 to participate from anywhere in Utah. Educators interested in having their classes attend an online screening should contact studentprograms@sundance.org.
Discounted Access to the Festival
For a limited time only, the Salt Lake City Package can be purchased at an early bird 20% discount ($100 savings) for $400 starting on December 17, 2021, through January 3, 2022, after which the package price will return to $500. Created for Utah residents, this package offers 10 in-person tickets to feature film screenings at all Salt Lake City venues, with early access to ticket selection, and includes all the benefits of our Explorer Pass.
Beginning Wednesday, January 26, the Festival will offer a 25% discount on single tickets ($5 savings) for locals for in person screenings taking place on Wednesday, January 26, through to the end of the Festival. Utah residents can receive a $5 discount for up to four single tickets per person, based on availability. Utah residents who have created a Sundance account will receive the discount and tickets can be purchased online or in person at any box office location beginning January 26th at 8:00 a.m. MT.
Festival Venues
Festival venues for 2022 include both theater and non-theater locations. Non-theater venues will host conversations and events (including live music and panels) - an ideal spot for Utah artists to converge. The Festival's online platform will expand the reach by increasing accessibility for audiences across Utah (and beyond).
