Sundance 608 is a movie theater in Madison, Wisconsin owned by the Sundance Group. The first of the Sundance Cinemas in the United States,[1] Sundance 608's grand opening was on May 11, 2007.[2] The theater is located in the Hilldale Shopping Center, where it replaced the Hilldale Theater. The "608" is a reference to the telephone area code for the region.[3][4] Madison was selected as the first location for Sundance Cinemas because of the level of interest in independent film in the region.[1][5]

Sundance 608 contains six stadium-seated auditoriums, a cafe, rooftop bar, and Gallery 608, which sells Sundance-related arts and merchandise and artwork produced by local artists. The added activities were seen by the Sundance Group as a means of changing the way customers viewed going to the movies and to make the movie theater more of a destination.[1][3]
