Aaron Paul
Kristen Stewart, Aaron Paul, Anne Hathaway and more stars will be in attendance for the 2014 Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah from Jan. 16-24 -- get the details on the parties and nightlife activities in store

It all began in 1981, when Robert Redford snagged a group of friends to help create the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. Every year, actors, directors, critics, reporters and movie executives head to the snowy mountains to recognize special performances in upcoming films — and, just maybe, find the next breakout hit or Oscar contender.

Here, Us Weekly rounds up just a few of Sundance's hottest parties, lounges and more that guests can expect to experience. The 2014 festival will take place from Jan. 16-24.
