Today, the nonprofit Sundance Institute announced the final phase of its Request for Proposal (RFP) process to host the Sundance Film Festival beginning in 2027.
Three cities will be moving forward into the concluding review process to determine a long-term host for the Sundance Film Festival. The decision will be announced next year, after the 2025 festival, in late winter/early spring.
All three finalists were assessed on ethos and equity values, infrastructure, and capabilities to host the Festival, in addition to demonstrating ways in which they will continue to foster the diverse Sundance community and inspire the next generation of independent filmmakers.
The Sundance Film Festival will continue to take place in Park City and Salt Lake City, Utah in 2025 and 2026. The Festival will transition to the host city in 2027 and subsequent years.
The finalists selected to move forward to the final phase are (in alphabetical order):
● Boulder, Colorado
● Cincinnati, Ohio
● Salt Lake City/Park City, Utah
