Historical Salt Palaces

Original Salt Palace (1899–1910)

The Original Salt Palace was constructed in 1899 at 900 South between State and Main Streets in Salt Lake City, Utah, as an exhibition hall intended to highlight the unique features of the city and the nearby Great Salt Lake. Designed by architect Richard K.A. Kletting in the Beaux Arts Classicism style, the structure featured a frame covered in large slabs of rock salt, with wooden elements sprayed with powdered rock salt and soaked in brine to evoke a crystalline, salt mine-like appearance that shimmered under electric lights. Owned by John Franklin Heath, the venue served as a multi-purpose amusement and entertainment destination, accommodating exhibitions, dances, concerts, and various rides including a miniature railroad, merry-go-round, and circular swing. Its interior included a prominent salt-themed design, a palm garden, and a dancing hall, making it a centerpiece for public gatherings and leisure activities. The Salt Palace quickly became a hub for diverse events, drawing large crowds to its facilities such as the Salt Palace Saucer, an enclosed bicycle track that seated around 4,000 spectators for amateur and professional races where world records were set. It hosted regular performances and theatrical shows alongside concerts and social dances, contributing to City's emerging cultural scene in the early 1900s. The venue also featured a Plaisance with additional amusements and an adjacent baseball diamond, fostering community entertainment and positioning the city as a modern metropolitan center. On August 29, , a caused by defective wiring broke out and rapidly gutted the main hall, destroying much of the despite efforts by firefighters. The blaze, which started in the early morning hours, left the iconic building in ruins and marked the end of its operations as a premier venue, severely disrupting local entertainment options for exhibitions and performances. The site was subsequently cleared, with demolition completed by , though elements of the surrounding resort persisted until later incidents in and 1916. The loss underscored the venue's short but influential role in Salt Lake City's history, with the "Salt Palace" name enduring as a legacy for subsequent cultural facilities.

Salt Palace Arena (1969–1994)

The Salt Palace Arena, constructed between 1967 and 1969 at a cost of $17 million, was located at 100 South West Temple in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah. Designed as a multi-purpose venue, it featured a distinctive cable-suspended roof supported by 36 concrete columns and a massive tension ring, allowing for an unobstructed interior space. The arena opened on July 12, 1969, with an initial seating capacity of approximately 10,725, which was later expanded to around 12,500 for basketball games. Named in homage to the original Salt Palace exposition hall from 1899, it served as a key venue for sports and entertainment in the region. The arena became a hub for professional sports, hosting the Utah Stars of the American Basketball Association from 1970 to 1975, where they achieved a notable 57-27 record in their inaugural season and won the 1971 ABA championship with a 4-3 series victory over the Kentucky Colonels, drawing a record crowd of 13,260 for Game 7 at the venue. The Utah Jazz of the NBA called the Salt Palace home from 1979 to 1991, playing their first game there on October 15, 1979, before a crowd of 7,721, and experiencing their initial sellout on March 27, 1980, with 12,015 attendees; the team posted competitive records, including 53-29 in the 1983-84 season, though they did not secure a championship during this period. Additionally, the Salt Lake Golden Eagles of the Western Hockey League (later Central Hockey League and International Hockey League) played there from 1969 to 1991, winning the 1988 Turner Cup as IHL champions with a 4-2 finals victory over the Flint Spirits after a 40-34-8 regular-season record, marking one of five league titles earned at the arena. Beyond sports, the Salt Palace hosted numerous high-profile concerts and events, including performances by in 1971 and 1974, , and , drawing tens of thousands of fans and establishing it as a premier entertainment destination. Tragically, a crowd crush during an on January 18, 1991, resulted in the deaths of three teenagers—14-year-olds Jimmie Boyd and Curtis Child, and 19-year-old Elizabeth Glausi—due to festival-style seating that led to a near the stage, prompting widespread scrutiny of safety practices. By the early 1990s, the arena faced obsolescence from structural deterioration, concerns, and the need for urban redevelopment, leading to its closure after the Jazz's final game on May 12, 1991. Demolition began in March 1994 via controlled implosion to clear the site for a new , ending 25 years of operation.

Current Convention Center

Construction and Opening

The current Salt Palace Convention Center was planned and constructed by Salt Lake County between 1994 and 1996 on the site of the former Salt Palace arena, which had been demolished earlier that year to accommodate the new facility at 100 South West Temple in downtown Salt Lake City. The project, aimed at creating a modern venue to boost the region's convention and tourism industry, was designed by the Salt Lake City-based architectural firm Gillies Stransky Brems Smith, with construction bids totaling approximately $70.6 million for the core build, bringing the overall cost to around $85 million upon completion. The opened in February 1996, featuring an initial 121,500-square-foot exhibit hall spanning 270 by 450 feet, a 36,000-square-foot , and 54,000 square feet of meeting rooms, along with a prominent 110-foot-high entry tower and a 600-foot-long structure supported by trusses engineered for minimal deflection under heavy loads. A formal dedication ceremony took place on May 16, 1996, marking the facility's readiness for major events. Early operations focused on trade shows and conventions, generating over $104 million in bookings during its inaugural year and positioning the center as a key economic driver for . One early challenge emerged in late 1997 when a investigation revealed that a potential fault line beneath the site had been omitted from official county geologic maps, raising concerns about seismic risks in the seismically active region. This discovery prompted a review of the structure's foundations and led to temporary operational adjustments and reinforcements to mitigate hazards, though the facility had already been fully operational for nearly two years.

Expansions and Renovations

The first major expansion of the Salt Palace Convention Center occurred between 1999 and 2000, adding approximately 214,000 square feet of meeting and exhibit space to prepare the facility for the , where it served as the Main Media Center.

This project also incorporated two levels of underground parking for 450 cars and achieved Silver certification for elements. Ongoing maintenance efforts in the focused on operational upgrades, including HVAC system improvements for and enhancements to meet ADA compliance standards, contributing to the center's current total of 987,000 square feet across 67 meeting rooms.
