Vivint Arena
On May 10, Vivint Arena announced that comedian Jim Gaffigan will return to the arena on Dec. 11. Gaffigan previously brought his comedy to the venue in 2018.
- “There is something very unique about Salt Lake City. It’s one of those places that for me, I wish there were, like, eight more metropolitan areas like Salt Lake City,” he told the Deseret News in 2018. “And it’s not just because people like my stand-up. I think there’s also an appreciation for the type of comedy I do. We live in an age where people have a tendency toward outrage, but there’s a trust that the audience in Salt Lake has with me — like, “We know he’s not a jerk. We know that it’s not constructed on shock.”
Tickets go on sale May 14 at noon MT.
On April 7, Vivint Arena announced its first new, full-capacity show in more than a year. Country superstar Eric Church will bring his “The Gather Again” tour to the venue on April 30, 2022.
- “I just want to play shows,” Church recently told Billboard. “Politics’ job is to divide — that’s how you win elections. Those things that unite us are music and sports. The times when, whether you’re a Democrat or Republican or whatever, you throw your arm around the person next to you. We need that. I need that.”
Tickets to the general public go on sale May 7 at 10 a.m. MT.
