Sundance Film Festival Courting New Host City for 2027 and Beyond


The Sundance Film Festival announced it will court a new potential host city in the U.S., potentially leaving its longtime home in Utah.

The annual celebration of independent film announced on Wednesday that it is open for pitches from cities across the United States on becoming the new permanent home of the festival starting in 2027.
