Site Selection for the 2002 Worldcon was conducted by Aussiecon 3, the 1999 Worldcon. On the ballot was Bay Area in 2002 and a Roswell in 2002 hoax bid. (Berlin in 2002 and Seattle in 2002 dropped out of the race before filing, in Seattle's case, because they lost their facilities.)

Bay Area in 2002 won and went on to run ConJosé. The results were:
