Did you know the Sundance Film Festival is coming to Boulder in 2027? To help residents get ready for this momentous cultural event, the Cultural Arts & Public Spaces (CAPS) advisory committee is launching a free monthly independent film series starting Friday, Dec. 19. Coined the CAPS "Boulder Film Friends in Superior" (BFFs), screenings will showcase independent films that have premiered at past Sundance festivals, the Cannes Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival, LA Film Festival, and others. The fun kicks off this month with a holiday favorite!
Best Christmas Pageant Ever Friday, Dec. 19 at 6 p.m. Superior Civic Space 2250 Main St., Suite 1001
The Best Christmas Pageant Ever is based on the popular 1972 children's book by Barbara Robinson and has been adapted into a stage play, a TV movie, and a major live-action film released in November 2024.
The movie (rated PG) follows the six rowdy Herdman siblings, who are known for lying, stealing, and bullying. When they decide to take over the annual church Christmas pageant, they disrupt the process with their outrageous behavior and interpretation of the nativity story.
Please feel free to grab food and non-alcoholic beverages from local Downtown Superior businesses to enjoy during the event.
Parking is available on Main Street and adjacent Downtown Superior streets. Find garage parking northeast of the intersection of Main Street and Marshall Road. For more information and a map, visit the Downtown Superior Parking webpage.
Questions? Contact Arts & History Supervisor Jennifer "JG" Garner by email or at 303-499-3675, ext. 167.
Can't make it? The next Boulder Film Friends in Superior events will be held on Jan. 23, Feb. 27, and March 27. The screening schedule is available on the event page.
