From January 21 to 31, 2027, the Sundance Film Festival will bring independent filmmakers, Hollywood stars, and movie lovers to Boulder. And while the premieres and celebrity sightings will draw plenty of attention, the festival is also making a point of welcoming locals, with brand-new affordable ticket options for students, young adults, and weekday moviegoers.

For nearly 50 years, the Sundance Film Festival has been showcasing excellence in independent filmmaking and crafting transformative experiences for filmmakers and audiences alike. This year, it finds a new home right here in Colorado.

Festival programmers from around the world have been confirmed as attendees at the second edition of NL Wave, the Dutch cinema showcase being held in Utrecht from September 30-October 2.

With the Sundance Film Festival coming to campus Jan. 21–31, there are several opportunities for CU Boulder students to get involved now.

When the Sundance Film Festival debuts in Boulder for the first time in January, tens of thousands of out-of-state visitors will need somewhere to stay. But some Boulder homeowners are hesitant to open their homes for short-term rentals; it can seem too inconvenient or require too much effort.
