Festival Insiders

Festival Insiders are volunteers who have been specially trained to help you navigate the Festival. Have questions about buying tickets? Where to catch a shuttle? Grab a cup of cocoa? Find a restroom? Festival Insiders have the answers. These friendly folks hang out on Main Street and at other Festival venues sporting wide smiles and “Ask Me” buttons.

Daily How to Fest Tours

Have lots of questions? Festival Insiders lead personalized “How to Fest” tours on Main Street. Free one-hour tours leave each day from the patio of the Sundance House Presented by HP at 10:00 a.m. from January 20 to January 28. No registration required.

Tips for Being Green at the Festival

Here are a few simple things you can do to support Sundance Institute and our sponsor community in our shared efforts to make the 2012 Sundance Film Festival greener.

Getting Around

A system of walking paths throughout Park City takes you between Festival venues so you can save precious energy spent fighting traffic. Or hop on the free Festival shuttle bus.

Recycling

You can easily recycle your aluminum, plastic, glass, and paper at even more recycling bins this year at all of our theatres, venues, and shuttle stops, and throughout Park City.

Using Less

Instead of picking up a second or third printed Film Guide, utilize Sundance Film Festival’s interactive Online Film Guide which will launch in December. Also available in December for on-the-go Festival information, try our Sundance Film Festival iPhone app featuring the complete 2012 film schedule, venue and transportation mapping, exclusive videos, and more.

Reduce Energy Consumption

To help conserve energy, remember to lower the thermostat and turn off the lights when leaving your Festival accommodations.

Buying Green

Sundance Film Festival merchandise is repurposed, recycled, or reusable. In an effort to minimize our carbon footprint, we strive to support domestic manufacturers.

Winter in Park City: Discover Main Street

Park City is rumored to have more restaurants per capita than any other city. With over 100 restaurants, guests enjoy a sophisticated dining scene and can choose from a variety of cuisines including Thai, French, Italian, Southwestern, Continental, American and Asian Freestyle.

During the day, shoppers stay busy browsing in Main Street boutiques carrying clothing, ski gear, antiques, and jewelry, and bookstores and cafes offer quiet places to watch the world go by. When the sun goes down, plenty of clubs and wine bars guarantee a lively nightlife.

For visitors who prefer a cultural side to their vacations, The Egyptian Theater produces a variety of musicals and other programs, and a wide selection of artwork is on display at the Kimball Art Center’s three spaces and at galleries lining Main St.
