SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — Smith Entertainment Group (SEG) CEO Ryan Smith hosted a press conference and announced a partnership with Live Nation Entertainment and the development of a new indoor music venue for downtown Salt Lake City.
The venue will have approximately 6,000 seats, and it is planned to host 200 events annually, with 100 of those being concerts. This will be Live Nation’s only purpose-built, large indoor venue in the Salt Lake City area.
Delta Center will continue to host concerts and other events for 12,000 to 19,000 attendees, and so the new venue will serve artists looking for a mid-size venue option. The new venue is expected to host concerts, conferences, and community and corporate events.
