Salt Lake City
Updated .
the local sports scene
Salt Lake City's basketball team is named after a musical style with no connection to Utah, because it moved here from New Orleans and kept the name.
The local sports scene
The scene
The Jazz arrived from New Orleans in 1979 and never changed the name. The city hosted the 2002 Winter Olympics and has been awarded the 2034 Games, reusing many of the same venues — the Utah Olympic Park sliding track and the speed skating oval in Kearns are both still in competitive use. Real Salt Lake won the MLS Cup in 2009, and the NHL returned to the city in 2024 when the Arizona franchise relocated.
Rivalries that matter
Utah against BYU — the Holy War — is the state's defining rivalry and ran annually from 1922 until conference realignment interrupted it. Real Salt Lake against Colorado is the Rocky Mountain Cup.
Where to watch
The blocks around the arena downtown; Real Salt Lake supporters gather in Sandy before matches at the stadium's south end.
