The annual Lindquist Family Symphony Pops Concert and Fireworks will light up the skies above Weber State University on July 16 from 9–11 p.m.

Now in its 44th year, the free community celebration was initiated by John A. and Telitha E. Lindquist in 1978. Today, John E. Lindquist, president of Lindquist Mortuaries and Cemeteries in Ogden, proudly continues the tradition.

“The Lindquist Family Symphony Pops Concert and Fireworks has become a hallmark of summer in northern Utah,” said WSU President Brad Mortensen. “Every year, we are grateful to the Lindquist family for sponsoring this beloved event that brings our community together on WSU’s beautiful Ogden campus.”

The New American Philharmonic will provide a 60-minute concert beginning at 9 p.m. at the Ada Lindquist Plaza at the heart of campus. The performance will include Tchaikovsky’s “1812 Overture” with a battery of 16 cannons provided by the Cannoneers of the Wasatch.

Around 10 p.m., thousands of attendees will enjoy one of the largest fireworks displays in Utah, set to the music of the live symphony.

Several local food trucks will also be on hand to sell refreshments.

On-campus parking and seating is available, but limited. Parking lots A1 and A10 will be closed beginning July 15 at 9 a.m. Guests traveling in motorhomes or larger vehicles are encouraged to park on the east side of campus near Stewart Stadium.

The roundabouts off Harrison Boulevard and Dixon Drive will be closed to traffic, but vehicles can still access campus from Skyline Drive and Taylor Avenue. The interior part of campus will be closed to vehicles.

To minimize damage to campus grounds, attendees may not leave blankets, chairs or save spaces before 6 p.m. on July 15. Items placed on the lawn prior to that time will be removed.

FORT HALL, IDAHO – Jay Leno, former late-night television host, to perform his comedy stand-up act live on stage at our outdoor concert venue on Friday, August 18, 2023, at 8 pm.

Calling all comedy enthusiasts! Brace yourselves for an evening of non-stop hilarity as the one and only Jay Leno lights up Fort Hall with his razor-sharp humor and legendary punchlines.

Jay Leno’s late-night television ratings domination included two decades as the host of the #1-rated “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.” After the first two years, Jay Leno never lost a single ratings year in which he served as a host.

When he’s not on TV, Leno performs more than 100 stand-up shows annually across the country and internationally, participates in numerous charity and corporate events, does voice-overs for animated series, pens children’s books, and writes a monthly column in various automotive magazines. And in his “spare” time (as if he has any), he enjoys working on his collection of classic cars and motorcycles. In fact, he has built a number of cars, including an acclaimed eco-car in his eco-friendly green garage

Now in its 42nd year, the celebrations are a welcome return to normal after last year’s event was cancelled due to the pandemic. Initiated by John A. and Telitha E. Lindquist in 1978, the Lindquist Pops is a longstanding tradition in northern Utah that brings the community together each year. John E.

“We are so grateful to the Lindquist family for continuing the tradition of the Lindquist Pops Concert, said President Brad Mortensen. “After all that we have endured as individuals and a community during the pandemic, coming together to celebrate provides real evidence of turning the pandemic corner.

As the weekend is coming closer, we are thrilled to announce a revamp of one of our bike trails that is accessible now! The Squirrel Downhill Bike Trail located near the base area has been revamped by our trail crew the last few weeks and you can now give it a try. You can access it just above the Wildcat Parking Lot and it flows down through the trees to come out near the bottom of the Earl’s Parking Lots.

This past winter our new access ski trail to Canyon Rim Parking went directly through a large portion of the old Squirrel downhill bike trail. So this spring our Trail Crew has been busy building two new sections of trails built to allow the Squirrel trail to reopen with a better flow. There is a new optional rock drop on the lower section of the trail, that will offer a more advanced route. The revamped Squirrel Trail is open for guests to enjoy and well marked. You can access it near the Wildcat Parking Lot. This is the first trail maintenance ever done with our new mini excavator and operator. With this trail revamped, we will continue to work on improving the biking experience around Snowbasin. In the next few weeks our team will be focusing on the upper Needles Trail as the snow melts before we open for biking for summer operations.

Remember Needles Gondola opens for summer operations on Saturday, June 12th.

Snowbasin Resort releases the schedules for its free summer music series, Blues, Brews & BBQ and SnowWiesn. Blues, Brews & BBQ will begin on August 1 with opening day music from Andy Frasco and Kris Lager, then an event each Sunday through Labor Day Sundays between September 12 and October 3. Events will run 12:00 pm – 5:00 pm on Sundays in conjunction with regular summer operations 10:00 am – 5:00 pm. Music is brought to you by Mountain Town Music.

In addition, to live music, Earl’s Lodge will be serving a variety of delicious food options along with a great selection of local beers on tap. Guests can enjoy a morning hiking or biking and spend the afternoon listening to free live music in the mountains. Both adults and children will be able to test their skills at the Wildflower Mini Golf Course and if you have a 21-22 Premier Season Pass, you can enjoy unlimited access to Needles Gondola. Season Passes for next winter are on sale now.

Commemorative mugs will be sponsored by Roosters Brewing and available for purchase, where guests can refill the mug during the 2021 concert series. Snowbasin and Roosters are looking forward to collaborating on a SnowWiesn beer that will debut at the start of the festival.

“We’re thrilled to bring back our local’s favorite summer concert series with 10 exciting events scheduled”, said Alan Dickerson, Director of Food and Beverage. “Each Sunday starting in August, we’ll welcome guests with free live music and great food and drink offerings at our outdoor festivals. We hope you’ll join us and experience the year-round beauty at Snowbasin.”
