Throughout the ten day festival, Sundance filmmakers, actors, talent and VIPs will enjoy chauffeured transportation around town. Volkswagen will have over sixty vehicles present from its product line, ranging from the Touareg 2, a stand out off-road vehicle perfectly suited for the snowy Park City terrain, to the popular Passat. Additionally, On Sunday, January 20th, Volkswagen owners will be treated to a special Private Owner film screening of Udayan Prasad’s “The Yellow Handkerchief.”

The Sundance Film Festival is one of the most prestigious film festivals in the world. It is the largest independent cinema festival in The United States, with screenings, panels, workshops, and events held in Park City and Salt Lake City, Utah, bringing over 40,000 people together from around the globe for ten days of film and culture.
