Denver, here is my list of things to do this weekend. [March 27th - 30th]

March 27, 2025

Hey Denver,

Sundance Film Festival is coming to Boulder.

I guess Park City Utah made Boulder look affordable! This is great news for my fellow film nerds and cinephiles who may have just one or two movies they want to see but could never justify thousands in airfare and lodging in Park City.

We’re also looking at some lovely warm weather on Saturday and there are plenty of reasons to get out of the house. It’s going to be great!
