Sand Hollow Resort has established itself as a destination for quality live entertainment, food, nightlife and golf. Southern Utah audiences may have already visited the Rock Bowl to enjoy the ongoing Sunset Concert Series featuring local musicians.

This is the first time the resort has hosted a special event for Labor Day weekend, but event manager Carrie Bunker said they plan to make it a tradition. 

“We try to do a variety, mixing country, classic rock, blues, ‘80s and more to keep things fresh and appeal to different audiences,” she said. “All the entertainment is family-friendly.” 

Sponsored by Germaine Marine, the concert on Saturday will feature IDOL X: The Billy Idol Live Experience, a five-piece band performing the music of Billy Idol. The Los Angeles-based tribute act brings all the swagger, attitude and artistry needed to showcase Idol’s numerous rock hits. 

Doors open at 7:30 p.m., and the concert is scheduled to start at 8:30 p.m. Admission starts at $20 for the grass area, and ticket holders must bring their own chair or blanket. Padded seats can be reserved in the VIP area for $25. No coolers or outside food and beverage will be permitted.

Tickets are available exclusively on Eventbrite through the day of the concert. There will be no ticket sales at the venue. 

The Grille at Sand Hollow Resort serves both traditional and contemporary cuisine with scenic outdoor dining on a wraparound deck. Grab a snack or book a table to enjoy dinner before the show.

The 15,000 square-foot Rock Bowl is among the premier outdoor entertainment venues in Southern Utah. A backdrop of sandstone formations and desert vegetation create a magical atmosphere as the sun goes down. The entire resort features extraordinary panoramic views in every direction, from the towering cliffs of Zion National Park to the east to the rugged Pine Valley Mountains just north.

“You have the stars, you’re out in the fresh air, and you can kind of escape all of the craziness in the world right now and get away,” Bunker said. “You feel like you’re in a whole different scenery just over the hill.”

The Rock Bowl hosts concerts from March through October. In 2022, the resort will expand its entertainment calendar to feature twice as many Sunset Concert Series installments along with signature acts every month. 

Ideally located amidst the natural beauty of the Hurricane Valley, Sand Hollow Resort is an adventure destination offering unlimited outdoor activities just outside its front door. The championship golf course is nationally ranked as a “Top 100 Resort Course” by Golfweek magazine. 

If you’re looking for a staycation experience, the resort offers a variety of accommodations, ranging from rooms and suites to condominiums and vacation homes. And with opportunities for watersports, offroading, biking and hiking, guests can choose to make their experience as relaxing or vigorous as they like.
