What is Pioneer Day?

Pioneer Day is a Utah state holiday marking the arrival of Brigham Young and the first Latter-day Saint pioneers in the Salt Lake Valley on July 24, 1847. It celebrates their westward journey, resilience, and the communities they built. Utahns mark it with parades, rodeos, fireworks, and family gatherings honoring the pioneers' legacy.
