I’m thrilled to invite you and your family to an event that’s been years in the making – the grand opening of Provo’s Epic Sports Park this Saturday, September 21st, at 10 a.m. Trust me, you won’t want to miss this one-of-a-kind celebration!
This 100-acre park is more than just a collection of fields; it’s a game-changer for our community. We’ve designed it to bring people together and create opportunities for everyone, from local athletes to businesses and families. With 21 multi-use fields and a soon-to-be completed 45-court pickleball facility, Epic Sports Park will be the largest regional sports park in Utah and one of the biggest in the entire Intermountain West. That’s something to be proud of!
To kick things off, we’re going all out. Picture this: a skydiver descending from the heavens, delivering a soccer ball right into the action! We’ll also have pyrotechnics, hundreds of excited kids, and our very own Zippy, the Parks and Recreation mascot, to keep the energy high.
This park is more than just a sports facility; it’s an investment in our future. We know how much our local athletes have needed this. With over 330 teams competing for space on just 11 fields, the demand was simply too high. Epic Sports Park isn’t just a solution to this, it’s a step forward in making Provo the place for sports tourism in Utah. Tournaments are already scheduled, and we’re expecting the park to bring $40 million annually into our regional economy. That means more business for our local shops, hotels, and restaurants—and more growth for Provo.
But we didn’t just focus on size. We designed Epic with you in mind. Families traveling to tournaments will find easy parking, clear navigation, and open spaces designed to reduce traffic congestion. It’s a park built for convenience, efficiency, and—most importantly—fun!
Here’s what you can expect this Saturday:
1600 RSVPs from excited community members—our neighbors are just as eager to celebrate as you are!
Provo City Council, Utah County Commissioners, and State legislators will be there to mark the occasion.
A skydiver delivering a surprise soccer ball drop!
Zippy the Mascot will be there for the kids (and the young-at-heart!).
And, of course, a day filled with activities and excitement.
If you haven’t RSVP’d yet, don’t worry! You can still join in the fun by reserving your spot here on Eventbrite.
So, grab your family, invite your friends, and head over to Epic Sports Park at 2602 West Victory Way at 10 a.m. this Saturday. Let’s celebrate together and make history at this extraordinary event!
I can’t wait to see you there!
