What is this festival all about? Is it just for the celebrities? How does it work? The Sun Valley Film Festival brings together fans of film and festivals to unite them with the stars. This isn't just an industry event, but you might say it's intimate.

Gwyneth Paltrow will be one of the many celebrities in attendance including the recipient of the Vision Award.

The SVFF Vision Award pays tribute to an industry icon that has provided the keen insight, influence and initiative to fulfill their creative vision. We have already honored Clint Eastwood, Oliver Stone and Geena Davis and look forward to continuing this proud tradition at the SVFF 2018.

Sun Valley Is Our Close Neighbor
My #1 reason to visit the Sun Valley Film Festival is the location. It's about 2 h 45 m from Boise and that makes it easier to drive down without having to spend on lodging. You'll only need to worry about gas, food, and admission.
Trust me! That's enough.

Sun Valley has been forever known as a local spot where Hollywood's most elite frequent. You might even call it a "hotspot".
Visit the Sun Valley Film Festival and you might run into Oprah Winfrey, Demi Moore, Bruce Willis, Clint Eastwood, Tom Hanks, and more. This festival could have even more than that. There's no rush of paparazzi, it's a break from the city, and they love to hit the slopes.
