Joint Statement from Julie Calvert, President & CEO of Visit Cincy & Julie Kirkpatrick, President and CEO of meetNKY:
"We are, of course, disappointed that the Sundance Film Festival community will not experience our unique blend of hospitality by hosting Sundance in our community. Cincinnati is iconic, serving as a vibrant hub for the arts and culture, and we are in the midst of incredible developments.
Our entire film community is thriving; our storytellers are the future of this country, and our city continues to be a destination for innovation and talent.
We are incredibly proud of how our community came together to demonstrate our capability to tackle ambitious initiatives and host world-class events. This effort has proven that Cincinnati is a serious contender on the global stage, and we are excited for the more exciting opportunities that lie ahead."
