Kanab Music Fest

On July 24th and 25th Kanab will host the first two-day Kanab Music Fest, featuring 10 different Utah-based artists at the Jacob Hamblin Park from 5 p.m.- 10 p.m. each night. This first year, this family-friendly concert is FREE of charge.

This two-day music fest will facilitate social distancing, high hygiene standards and mask wearing when social distancing is difficult. There will be two stages and two large-screens to allow the attendees to spread out and sit with their family groups in the park and enjoy live music.

Friday will feature country, folk and bluegrass artists and Saturday will feature more rock bands. All bands are appropriate for a family audience, so all are welcome to come enjoy music in a beautiful setting.

The event will be held in the beautiful Jacob Hamblin Park (566 North 100 East), nestled in the iconic red rocks of Kanab.

The event originator, Ted Hinckley, came to Kanab with several student bands in February for the Balloons & Tunes Roundup and realized that Kanab would be a great location for a music festival, with protocol and infrastructure already in place to allow for a great outdoor concert under the new guidelines. Hinckley is integrated into the music scene and sees a pent up need for artists to perform after all of the restrictions and a great desire for live music for concert goers.

Kane County Office of Tourism and Kanab City Arts Council are events co-sponsors of the event.

Don’t miss the fireworks show at 10:30 PM on July 24th at the Jackson Flat Reservoir (725 E Kaneplex Dr., Kanab, UT) in honor of our Pioneer heritage.
