The Utah State Fairpark, located in Salt Lake City, Utah, is the new home to Days of ’47 Rodeo where it will be permanently located. The $17 million, 10,000-seat, arena, built in eight months, chose Qualite Sports Lighting as their preferred lighting partner and expert. This arena is a destination for many. It was designed to hold other events such as concerts, motorsports events, demolition derbies, equestrian events, and other rodeos.

Eric Boorom, Qualite Owner, feels that “this was a great project for Qualite in Utah, considering the economic impact this new arena will have on the State and the city of Salt Lake. We do everything we can to support these types of economic development projects.” Roman Slaybaugh, Rocky Mountain Sales Manager, adds, “When I first heard about this project, I knew it would be big for the west side of Salt Lake City and I knew Qualite would be able to help. We presented Qualite’s expert knowledge in large area lighting, which spans across over 30 years of experience, and because of this we were chosen for this project.”
