\callupcities takes an argument, that is what is causing the
error message. But how it is supposed to work, I do not know.

You have to extend \sortprocess if you want something besides making
a bold inlined list of cities. Why? Consider this idiom:
\def\citylist{}
\def\makecitylist#1{\doglobal\appendtocommalist{#1}\citylist}
\setupsorting[city][criterium=all,command=\makecitylist]
