SALT LAKE CITY, UT—On Saturday, January 10, 2026, the historic Salt Lake Masonic Temple transforms into a portal through the ages for the 26th Annual SLC White Party—one of Salt Lake City’s most anticipated arts and nightlife events. Presented by the Utah Arts Alliance, this immersive, all-white celebration blends music, performance, visual art, and community impact in support of accessible arts across Utah.
What Is a White Party?
White Parties emerged in the 1970s as large-scale dance events closely tied to LGBTQIA+ communities, symbolizing joy, self-expression, and safe gathering spaces. The SLC White Party proudly holds the distinction of being the longest-running White Party in Salt Lake City, carrying forward this legacy of creativity, inclusivity, and celebration.
Attire: Time Is Yours to Play With
From Olympus to the Nile, from the cabaret stage to the disco floor—all white is required, but the era is up to you. Channel your chosen moment in time and become part of the living spectacle.
Theme: A Voyage Through Time
This year’s theme, A Voyage Through Time, invites dreamers, artists, and adventurers to step into a realm where ancient histories and futuristic fantasies collide. For one night only, the Salt Lake Masonic Temple becomes a living time portal, guiding guests through a series of immersive worlds:
- Pharaoh’s Portal — divine grandeur and ancient echoes
- Cabaret Royal — vintage glamour and theatrical allure
- Age of the Gods — mythic wonder and celestial storytelling
- DiscoTech / Y2K — high-energy nostalgia and futuristic pulse
Live performances, interactive installations, and unforgettable music are woven together in luminous shades of white and gold, creating a multi-sensory experience that blurs past, present, and future.
The event runs from 8:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. and is 21+ only.
Why This Event Matters
The SLC White Party is more than a celebration—it is a fundraiser supporting the arts.
Proceeds directly benefit the Utah Arts Alliance, a nonprofit organization that serves more than 300,000 people annually and supports over 2,000 artists across disciplines. Funds raised help sustain artist programs, cultural events, and major accessibility initiatives, including ongoing ADA improvements at UAA’s future Art Castle arts hub.
By attending, you help ensure that art remains accessible, inclusive, and community-centered in Utah.
