Corporate Partnerships

Sundance Institute builds multi-faceted collaborations with leading brands to engage with a creative community of artists and audiences. Our supporters enrich Sundance Institute’s film festivals and other public events, and help to sustain our year-round programs for independent artists.

Opportunities

Film Festival sponsorships, artist engagement, and underwriting Institute programs are just a few of the ways that Sundance Institute provides a global platform for brands to activate in unique and innovative ways throughout the year. We have a long history of successfully collaborating with brands that support the work we do as a non-profit and that share our values of independent spirit, creativity, innovation, and storytelling.

Corporate Sponsors and Partners

We offer several tiers of corporate engagement opportunities designed to support Sundance Institute’s mission while creating meaningful brand integration with the Sundance Film Festival and our year-round artist programs. These partnerships provide opportunities for both Festival activation (such as talks, events, and branded experiences), and ongoing support of Sundance Institute’s work championing independent storytelling. Many of our relationships are long-term and category-exclusive, offering brands a high level of visibility and integration within the Institute and Festival experience. 

Official
Providers

As a nonprofit, we welcome Official Providers. These are national and local companies that provide goods and services to the Sundance Institute and Festival as a tax deductible 501(c)(3) donation.

Corporate Hospitality Packages

Corporate Hospitality Packages offer large group access to the Sundance Film Festival, or better known as “group ticket sales.” These packages are ideal for client and executive entertainment, and they are designed to give attendees access to a larger quantity of tickets than could be purchased via public sale, complete with priority ticket selection. This subset also includes the sale of private screenings.
