(Rick Egan | The Salt Lake Tribune) Cele Ruiz poses snaps a selfie with Cleopatra Coleman, on Main Street in Park City, during the 2023 Sundance Film Festival, on Friday, Jan. 20, 2023. More celebrities are expected to visit Park City for the festival's 2024 edition.
Part of the fun of the Sundance Film Festival is knowing there’s a chance that you’ll see a celebrity — either on the stage during a Q&A, or randomly in a Park City restaurant, or signing autographs on Main Street.
But which celebrities are coming to the 2024 Sundance Film Festival? With a little advance word from publicists, we’ve compiled a list of some familiar faces who are expected to come to Park City in support of their new project. Sometimes a few will make the trip down to Salt Lake City, but mostly they’ll be up in the mountains. (Also, actors tend to go back to L.A. and New York after the first weekend — because they have day jobs, too.)
We have given you the celebrity’s name, some titles of movies and TV shows you might know them from, what they’re at Sundance to support, and (where possible) where you can find them on Instagram — so you can follow along vicariously with their glamorous lives.
