2010 Sundance Film Festival Registration is taking place right now. You need to register for the opportunity to purchase tickets and/or passes for the festival before October 9th (Locals Oct 2nd). It is not first-come, first-served, so don’t worry if you haven’t registered yet – but make sure you do before Oct. 9th, 5:00 p.m. MST or else you may miss out on getting the tickets and passes you want. The Sundance Festival takes place on January 21-31, 2010.
And so it is clear, Sundance says, “Registration DOES NOT guarantee either a purchase time or specific pass/ticket package availability at time of purchase. Registrants will be randomly chosen for purchase times. Not all registrants may receive time slots.” No promises, no guarantees, but it is free, so go ahead and register! Also note, “Limit one registration per person. Duplicate registrations will be canceled without notification. NO name changes OR address changes will be allowed after registration. P.O. boxes are not accepted as primary addresses. Please add your mailing address P.O. Box in the second address line; the first address line should match your driver’s license. A credit card is required for registration, but will not be charged.”
Locals Only Sundance Festival Registration
Oh, and if you are a local Utahn, you can register twice – once for the public, non-locals registration for everyone and a second time for locals only registration. Locals Registration Ends October 2nd. The locals registration is further separated into how local you are. For example, if you live in these zip codes, 84017, 84024, 84032 84033, 84036, 84049, 84055, 84060, 84061, 84068, 84082 and 84098 you can register for the Locals Summit County. All others who reside outside those zipcodes register for Locals Non-Summit. As usual, you will be asked to show proof of residency at time of purchase. ID must match the address in the registration.
An Artist at the Table – Sundance Opening Night
In addition to registering for time slots, which is free, you can also at this time purchase “An Artist at the Table” which includes a cocktail reception with filmmakers, reserved seating at the first screening of the Opening Night Film at Eccles Theatre, and dinner with Sundance Institute artists for a cost of $1,250 per person. Go ahead, splurge, it’s tax-deductible!
