Facility Overview
Situated at 5150 S 6055 W in West Valley City, this expansive open-air parking facility serves the grounds of the Utah First Credit Union Amphitheatre (formerly known as USANA Amphitheatre) and its operational partners, including Diamond Concessions. The venue features vast, multi-acre paved and graded surface lots designed specifically to accommodate high-volume vehicular traffic during major concert tours, festivals, and live entertainment gatherings. Because the facility is entirely outdoor surface parking with no overhead decks, multi-story ramps, or restrictive low ceilings, there are virtually no vertical clearance limits. This open footprint effortlessly accommodates passenger sedans, oversized pickup trucks, lifted SUVs, conversion vans, and venue operations support vehicles.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
Ingress and egress are engineered to process high vehicle volumes via S 6055 W, connecting directly to major arterial routes including 5400 South (UT-173) and the Mountain View Corridor (UT-85). Regional drivers can easily connect to Bangerter Highway (UT-154) and Interstate 215 within 10 to 15 minutes. During major concert events, local traffic officers and venue staff guide traffic onto designated lanes to ease the flow onto westbound and eastbound thoroughfares.

Public transit users can access Utah Transit Authority (UTA) bus routes along 5400 South and 5600 West, connecting outward toward TRAX light rail stations.

Visitor & Driver Tips
Concert traffic along 5400 S and the Mountain View Corridor can become heavily congested within 90 minutes of showtime; planning to arrive early when parking gates open ensures seamless entry and choice parking stalls. Take note of your row number or nearby lighting tower markers upon parking, as the vast outdoor footprint can look uniform after dark. When departing high-attendance sellout concerts, exercise patience as post-event traffic routing directs vehicles in staged flows to ensure safe dispersal onto regional highways.
