We are evaluating if we are able to provide Festival lodging, but it is unlikely at this time and volunteers will not be placed until they secure their own Festival lodging.Volunteers that find their own lodging are encouraged to find housing with flexible cancellation options in the event that conditions do not allow for robust in-person activities. Please email volunteers@sundance.org with any lodging updates.
Sign-Up volunteers and Utah residents *are not* eligible for Festival provided lodging.
