Sports

Cedar City really knows how to put on a big sporting event as we are the home of the Utah Summer Games;  a sanctioned 10,000+, athletic sports festival for the State Games of America.  Visit Cedar City · Brian Head is here to help bring your tournament, competition or sporting event to Cedar City and Iron County.  We have the venues, lodging and experience to bring your event to life, from baseball and softball tournaments, to mountain biking, road and gravel cycling,  off-road motorsport racing, rodeos, track and field, to high elevation ultra running and downhill ski racing.  

Thanks to our high elevation (we range in  elevation from 5,000 ft to 10,000 feet above sea level), we have  sports venues and facilities that provide a cooler-weather experience for tournaments and high-altitude training opportunities for skiers, cyclists, and endurance runners. Several premier western states events have been held in Cedar City over the years, including Tour of Utah Road Cycling Race, Belgian Waffle Ride, Utah High School Cycling League State Mountain Bike Championships, and WERoc Crawling National Championships.  

Here’s how we can help you bring your sporting event to the Cedar City area:

  • Facility Bid Assistance
  • Hotel blocks and rate negotiation 
  • Facility site inspections 
  • Social media marketing and public relations
  • Volunteer Outreach
  • Grants for facility fees and out of area marketing
