Red Butte Garden Announces 2022 Outdoor Concert Series Lineup

Red Butte Garden has released its Outdoor Concert Series lineup. The series is hosting its full summer season, including 30-plus bands, artists and performers, compared to just 22 shows last year. This year’s concerts will kick off mid-May, while last year didn’t get rolling until July. All in all, that means more chances to lay out a blanket on the grass, pop the cork on your wine and enjoy some live summer tunes.

Tickets for the Red Butte Outdoor Concert Series will go on sale April 25, 2022 for Garden members and on May 2022 for the general public. Before you go, double check the venue’s restrictions on the size of chair you can bring as well as outside food and drink (and make the most out of your experience with Salt Lake‘s tips on how to Red Butte.) 

“We are more than ready to get back to filling the amphitheater with guests and music—and based on the inquiries we’re getting, we think our guests are ready, too,” says series Executive director Derrek Hanson. He added that this season should have a little something for everyone with a lineup that includes alternative-indie, pop, rock, and folk music. 

The concert series has continued its tradition of a very musically diverse lineup, from pop rock acts like Barenaked Ladies, to contemplative folk like Iron & Wine, to straight bluegrass like Old Crow Medicine Show.
