On the Calendar

Utah has a few annual events that are worth planning your trip around.

• Sundance Film Festival takes place annually over 11 days at the end of January (January 18–January 28, 2018).
• Utah’s Pioneer Day celebrations mark Brigham Young’s arrival on July 24, 1847. Statewide, you will find fireworks, rodeos, parades, and fairs.
• Ski season traditionally begins Thanksgiving week at many resorts. Plan to ski in late November, March, or April to avoid the biggest crowds. Prices spike and accommodations fill around major holidays like President’s Day.
