PROVO, Utah – For the first time in three years, BYU Athletics will host Fan Fests in Utah again.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, fan fests did not occur in person in Utah for the last two years. But BYU has announced two locations in the northern and southern parts of the state for Cougar fans to get the chance to interact with their favorite BYU teams.
BYU Athletics is taking Fan Fest to Farmington and St. George
BYU fan fests will take place in May, first on Wednesday, May 11, in Farmington at the Legacy Events Center (151 S 1100 W). Then the Cougars will travel south to St. George on Saturday, May 21, at Sandtown Park (600 N Bluff St.).

Admission is free to the events. The Farmington Fan Fest goes from 6-8:30 p.m.; the St. George event is from 10 a.m.-12:30 p.m.
BYU’s mascot Cosmo, members of the football team, and the cheer squad are expected to be at both events, along with other BYU teams.
Last year, BYU hosted a fan fest in Las Vegas the night before the football season opener against Arizona. Before that, the previous fan fests took place in 2019.
BYU has been known to take its fan fests around the country. In 2019, they held a Fan Fest in Tennesee, months before the road football game against the Tennessee Volunteers.
