The Sundance Film Festival has announced six finalists, including Park City and Salt Lake City, for its future host location starting in 2027. Other contenders are Atlanta, Cincinnati, Boulder, Louisville, and Santa Fe. Finalists were chosen based on their ability to support the festival's growth, infrastructure, and alignment with Sundance's values. Each city will undergo evaluation, with site visits planned, to determine the best fit for the festival's sustainable future. Notable cities like San Francisco, Minneapolis, and Savannah did not make the final round of selection, as the festival explores potential relocation after its contract with Park City ends in 2026.
