Salt Lake City, UT – August 4, 2024 – Maintaining the long standing tradition of highlighting some of Utah’s best performing arts groups, the 16th Annual Craft Lake City DIY Festival Presented by Harmons returns to Salt Lake City in 2024. This year’s festival will feature over 50 acts spread across two stages, the 90.9 FM KRCL Stage and the Gallery of Fine Hyper Arts (GOFHA) Stage, as well as an additional three busking areas.
The 90.9 FM KRCL Stage and GOFHA Stages will not only feature a diverse range of acts and artists but will also host headlining acts every night of the festival. Attendees will be able to catch performances on Friday night from our local headlining performers Tolchock Trio and Talia Keys & The Love, as well as our national headliner Kacy Hill.
On Saturday night, the party continues later than ever with DIY Fest After Dark, where for the very first time, our Saturday performances will run until 10:00 p.m. – two full hours after our artisan market has closed!
