Sugar House Park is located between I-80, 2100 South, 1300 East, and 1700 East in the Sugar House neighborhood of Salt Lake City, Utah, United States. The 110-acre (45 ha) park is at the heart of the Sugar House neighborhood. It was the site of a fireworks show and concert every Independence Day (July 4), but the event was discontinued in 2018 due to environmental, logistical, and financial reasons.[1] It is a popular sledding location in the winter.
The park was the location of Sugar House Prison, Utah's first state prison, until 1951 when the Utah State Prison was opened in Draper.[2]
