12th Annual Joe’s Valley Fest

Pack the climbing shoes and cowboy hats! The 12th annual Joe's Valley Fest is on for October 1st-4th, 2026. Come join us in Emery County for 4 fun filled days of climbing and local artisan clinics, steer ridin' and hide racin' at the rodeo games, local food and music, a drawing for prizes like no other, gettin' down at the Joedown, volunteer projects, and so much more! Our mission as a nonprofit is to enhance the local economy, build community, and drive sustainability by bringing rock climbers and locals together around our shared enthusiasm for the outdoors. The Fest is what launched this originally and now helps us fund our year round activities, including climbing area stewardship and local youth programs, like low cost bouldering summer camps. Whether you're a local, climber (beginner, pro, or want to learn), or just curious to check out something new, we would love to see you at the Fest this year! Come with friends or come alone - our schedule and the positive vibes are designed to help you meet and mingle with new folks. And easy in town free camping during the Fest - or lots of great lodging and food options - make planning your trip a breeze. In addition to full event access, with your ticket you'll get an exclusive 2026 Fest t-shirt, a swag bag full of goodies, access to the free camping in town, two free breakfasts & coffee, a $5 local food voucher, special items at our Block Party, free admission to the Aquatic Center and Museum, a ticket to our giant drawing of prizes, yoga and movement classes, access to clinics, and so much more!
