St. George, Utah Is Getting A HUGE New Venue!

Have you heard of the new Black Desert Resort here in St. George? Well, it's the new golf course that will be hosting both the PGA Tour and LPGA Tour! This will be the first time in over 60 years that the Tour has come to Utah, and this will be a massive event. The PGA Tour will be happening in October of 2024, and the LPGA Tour will be happening the following year.

An instagram video surfaced today showing some GROUNDBREAKING things that will be coming to the Black Desert Resort in the coming months or years as well. The video posted by St. George Real Estate Agent, Paul Tangren.

In the video you have someone representing Black Desert Resort showing the "Masterplan" of the development. The man speaking says "When we got the PGA and the LPGA, we thought we were going to have to step up the game on entertainment, so this is being designed as a 12,500 seat concert venue that has a hotel that wraps around the venue, and a retractable roof, so it can be an indoor and outdoor concert venue. We have a contract with the Utah Jazz. One of the components of that agreement, is that they're going to come play their preseason games in our arena."

This will be something that will change St. George and Southern Utah, FOREVER if this actually is happening! A 12,500 seat venue is about 9x larger than Tuacahn, and around 3x larger than the Burns Arena at the Utah Tech University campus. We could FINALLY be getting huge concerts coming to town, as well as the Utah Jazz preseason games!
