2028 Democratic National Convention host selection

Overview

The Democratic National Committee has identified Philadelphia, Boston, and Denver as the three finalists to host the 2028 Democratic National Convention. This selection follows site visits conducted in the spring to assess logistical metrics and fundraising capacity. Atlanta and Chicago, the 2024 host, have been removed from consideration.

Denver officials have highlighted the city’s transit improvements, hospitality infrastructure, and venues like Ball Arena as competitive advantages. If selected, the convention—scheduled for August 7 to 10, 2028—could generate an estimated $400 million in economic activity for the local area. A final decision on the host city is expected later this year.
