SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH
FilmQuest will take place in Salt Lake City, Utah well into the foreseeable future. Founded by Mormon Pioneers in 1847, Salt Lake City is the largest city in Utah and the state’s capital.
HISTORIC TEMPLE SQUARE
The headquarters for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Temple Square sits in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City. There, one can visit the Salt Lake Temple, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, or take a tour to discover the history and origins of the Church. Temple Square is one of the most visited attractions in the United States, and a trip to Salt Lake City wouldn’t be complete without a visit to Utah’s most historic landmark.

WHERE TO STAY?
We recommend to the filmmakers who plan on attending the festival to book a hotel in downtown Salt Lake City near the Salt Palace convention center and the Gateway Mall. We are currently making arrangements with local hotels for discounted rates, so check back regularly for info regarding accommodations.
RENTAL CAR & TRANSPORTATION
The Salt Palace and hotels in downtown Salt Lake City are all in relative walking distance from each other. Utah also has a highly efficient TRAX car system, making foot and rail transport in the city a breeze. However, we do recommend looking into booking a rental car if you plan on exploring the sites that Utah has to offer outside of Salt Lake City.
