OK, so technically it starts in the spring and extends into autumn. We're still calling this the definitive list of Utah's 2017 summer concert schedule — for now. Just about any show that takes place between Ogden and Provo, along the Wasatch Front and in Park City, and that costs at least $10 is here. Remember, though, schedules and lineups are subject to change, and more concerts are sure to be announced.
