How can I get a Sundance Film Festival ticket?<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

There are two ways to get a ticket for the film festival. The ideal option is to buy the tickets prior via the festival\u2019s official website. The best thing to do is buy 2-3 tickets for different shows in a day. By this, you can save time standing in long queues and even have time to grab some bites between the shows. The second option is to buy the tickets directly from the venue. This option isn\u2019t recommendable as the chances are high that the seats may have got booked out earlier. Even if tickets are available, you may have to wait in the queue for hours. During the festival, the box office opens at 8 a.m. every day.\u00a0It will be easier to grab a ticket if you reach the venue as the box office opens.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
