Salt Lake Valley and Utah County
Salt Lake open mics.
Got a song and a free night? Here’s where to play it.
Every night on this list was checked against the venue’s own calendar or a current listing, and each one shows the day it was last checked. Rooms that go quiet drop off after two months, so what’s here is what’s running. Plans can shift, so a quick tap on the source before you load the car is always smart.

The list is getting a fresh check right now. Come back in a few days.
Know one that’s missing?
Run an open mic, or play one that isn’t here? Send it in with the night, the place and a link, and it goes on the list once it checks out. I play open mics too, so if you see a guy with an acoustic and a little battery amp, come say hi.
Host and want it changed or off the list?
Just send a note and it’s updated or removed, no questions asked.
