Following years of speculation as to a new location for the American Film Market, organizer IFTA and its Board of Directors have confirmed Las VegasPalms Casino Resort as its venue for the 45th edition.

Held in Los Angeles and Santa Monica for over four decades, the indie market moved away from his longtime Santa Monica home The Loews last year, though its relocation to the Delfina was beset with issues.

The decision to move to Las Vegas comes after a multi-city search and careful consideration of the needs of AFM’s Exhibiting Sales Companies and Buyers. “After extensive research, discussions with the Board and invaluable feedback from stakeholders, this move underscores our determination to evolving AFM to meet today’s industry needs,” said Clay Epstein, IFTA Chairperson and President of Film Mode Entertainment. “The strength of the AFM lies in its ability to create community and present a sophisticated platform for all our participants’ activities in one convenient location. The Palms enables us to do all of that and beyond.”
