American Fork and Saratoga Springs sit on opposite sides of Lehi, and they plan events very differently. American Fork is an established town at the foot of Mount Timpanogos with a WPA-era stone amphitheater and a summer festival that dates to 1945. Saratoga Springs is a lakeshore city on the northwest side of Utah Lake that led the state in growth from mid-2024 to mid-2025, adding 4,682 residents.
Neither city has a big hotel ballroom or convention hall, so most events here are outdoor builds in parks and amphitheaters. True AV brings the sound, lighting, staging and power those sites lack, and we plan the permit timeline with you from the start.

American Fork's week-long celebration ran July 18 to 25 in 2026, with an opening concert, a drone show and balloon glow at Mary and Art Dye Park, Symphony in the Park at the Quail Cove Amphitheater, a day at the boat harbor, a carnival and fireworks. Expect the city's parks and crews to be committed that week.
Harrington Center for the Arts and Velour Live Music Gallery present Fork Fest each June. The 2026 edition, June 12 and 13, put 31 Utah bands on three stages with food trucks and a vendor village.
File the city application at least 30 days out, and do not advertise until it is approved. Main St, State St, Utah County Blvd, 500 E and 100 E are UDOT roads that need a separate state permit, and the Murdock Canal Trail needs a Utah County permit.
Events of 299 or fewer apply 30 days ahead, 300 to 499 apply 60 days ahead, and 500 or more apply 90 days ahead. Anything over 100 people, running more than a day, or installing large equipment in a park needs the permit.
Saratoga Springs holds Splash Days the second full weekend of June at Neptune Park (June 10 to 13 in 2026). The city allows no third-party events anywhere in town that week, and Neptune Park takes no reservations for the rest of June while crews repair it.
Weddings, community concerts, performances and the Steel Days Symphony in the Park
AV note: A stone amphitheater built by the WPA in 1937 and banked into a pine hillside. Full-day rentals only, 7 AM to 11 PM, $600 plus a $100 deposit, with $200 to $400 more for concerts and corporate events. Stage power is not published, so plan to bring it.
Steel Days fair, concerts and carnival; Fork Fest
AV note: The city's main festival ground. Large events here need the American Fork special event permit.
Company picnics, reunions and parties
AV note: Both pavilions have lights and power. Reserve at least 7 days ahead.
Splash Days hub; pavilion events at Neptune, Harvest, Inlet, Marina, Shay and Sunrise Meadows parks
AV note: Pavilion power is 15 amps total, and repeated breaker trips shut it off until the next day, so any sound system needs a generator. No alcohol in city parks. Pavilions book May 1 to October 15.
Private venues with strong event teams, great rooms and a smooth load-in. The kind of places where the production side just works.

It depends on attendance: 30 days for 299 or fewer, 60 days for 300 to 499, and 90 days for 500 or more. Permit and city service fees are due at least 15 days before the event.
Yes. The city rents it by the full day and adds $200 to $400 for concerts, large groups and corporate events. A special event permit may also be required, and you will need to bring production and power.
No. The city does not allow alcoholic beverages in its parks. Plan a dry event or choose a private venue.
