Minneapolis Excluded from 2027 Sundance Festival Finalists

Minneapolis did not make it to the list of six finalists to host the Sundance Film Festival from 2027 onwards. Despite submitting a bid emphasizing its arts scene and cultural heritage, Minneapolis was not selected. The finalists include cities like Atlanta, Boulder, and a joint bid from Park City and Salt Lake City. Sundance will continue in Park City, Utah until 2026. While disappointed, Minneapolis officials expressed gratitude for the opportunity and hope to host future festivals.
