SALT LAKE CITY (August 3, 2026) — The Utah Transit Authority and Salt Lake County Arts & Culture are partnering to make a night out at the theater seamless from start to finish. As of August 1, 2026, your ArtTix event ticket now serves as your admission to the show and as a UTA transit pass on the day of your show.

Visitors to Abravanel Hall, Janet Quinney Lawson Capitol Theatre, George S. and Dolores Doré Eccles Theater, Mid-Valley Performing Arts Center, or the Rose Wagner Performing Arts Center can skip traffic and parking hassles by taking public transit directly to the theater.

"We want everyone who visits Salt Lake County's world-class arts venues to have a great experience from the moment they leave home until the final curtain," said Salt Lake County Mayor Jenny Wilson. "Our partnership with UTA makes it easier to get to performances by eliminating the stress and expense of downtown parking, so people can focus on enjoying the experience."

"Public transit is about connecting people to the places and experiences that enrich their lives — strong transit systems and thriving arts communities go hand in hand. We are proud to partner with Salt Lake County Arts & Culture to help more people access these incredible venues,” said UTA Executive Director Jay Fox. “This partnership demonstrates how working together can create a better experience for patrons while connecting more people to the cultural destinations that make our region special.”

To ride, simply show your same-day ArtTix digital or paper ticket to any bus driver or train host. Ticket-as-Fare is valid on any TRAX or FrontRunner train, buses, UTA On Demand, and the S-Line streetcar. Plan your trip on the UTA website.
