The Depot

Located in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City’s Gateway district, The Depot is a premier performance space housed within the historic Union Pacific Building. Originally a bustling train station, this refurbished landmark opened as a venue in 2006, blending early 20th-century architecture with a modern, multi-level layout. The room is celebrated for its industrial character, featuring exposed brick and wood that create a unique atmosphere for fans seeking entertainment in the city’s urban core. While primarily recognized as a top-tier music hall, The Depot has become a key destination for national comedy tours. The venue offers an intimate setting for stand-up, allowing audiences to connect closely with performers in a professional, club-style environment. Notable comedians such as Bill Engvall and Fred Armisen have performed here, making it a go-to spot for comedy enthusiasts looking to catch high-profile talent in one of Utah's most iconic settings.
