Utah's sales tax law would be updated to exempt tickets to the 2034 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games in Salt Lake City from state and local sales and use tax. This exemption would cover both individual tickets to Olympic or Paralympic events and venues, as well as hospitality packages that bundle a ticket with extras like exclusive amenities, food, beverages, or merchandise. If passed, this measure would take effect January 1, 2028, meaning purchasers of Olympic or Paralympic tickets and related hospitality packages would not pay Utah sales tax on those purchases.
