Washington, D.C. — Colorado U.S. Senators Michael Bennet and John Hickenlooper celebrated the announcement that the Sundance Film Festival will move to Boulder, Colorado in 2027.
“I’m pleased by the news that the Sundance Film Festival is moving to Boulder,” said Bennet. “This annual film festival is the largest of its kind in the U.S. – I’m so glad it will be calling Colorado home.”
“As mayor and governor, we worked to make Colorado an economic and cultural powerhouse,” said Hickenlooper. “Sundance is an iconic festival, and Boulder is the perfect backdrop for such a cultural force.”
Sundance Film Festival is the largest independent film festival in the U.S. It will center around the Pearl Street Mall and CU campus in Boulder and will involve a number of venues in the region, potentially including the Stanley Film Center in Estes Park.
