Lodging in the Park City area during the Festival can be expensive and difficult to secure. Some Full-time volunteers are eligible for Festival provided lodging but it is not guaranteed. When selecting Full-Time volunteers for Festival provided lodging, we give preference to volunteers who have been with the Festival for a number of years. (Keep in mind Festival lodging is not glamorous - often it is a sofa sleeper in a common room.)

We do not provide any lodging for Half Fest or Sign Up volunteers.

All new volunteers that apply as a full time volunteer are not typically eligible for lodging. Exceptions do happen (although extremely rare) and are due to last minute cancellations and/or specialized volunteer roles that they have the necessary skills for.

Please note, volunteers are not allowed to stay with friends in Festival-provided lodging unless they are assigned to that lodging by the Festival.

* Do you have your own lodging in Utah during the Festival?

Yes No

* Please choose one of the following:

Yes I am local/area resident OR I have ALREADY arranged a place to stay

Yes I plan to find a place on my own and I will follow up with information once I have secured accommodations

No I would need the Festival to provide me lodging in order to be able to volunteer for the Festival (Only Full-Time volunteers are eligible for this)

* Please select which city you would be most interested in working:

* Are you interested in being considered for a Management or Specially Skilled Volunteer Position? These positions are full-time and limited in number, but applying for them will not cancel out your eligibility for a general volunteer position.

Yes No

Which Full Time Management position are you interested in?

Have you managed people in an event or festival-like environment in the past?

Yes No

Please explain the event/position you held as a manager. Be sure to include your responsibilities and how many people you managed:

Are there any skills you would like to tell us about? (This is your opportunity to provide additional skills not listed above or elaborate on the ones you selected)

* Why are you interested in volunteering for the Sundance Institute? (If you are alumni, what is that keeps you coming back?)-

* Are you willing to do physical labor as part of volunteering?

Yes No
