Both drafts will be broadcast live on the in-arena video board, and fans will be able to view never-before-seen interviews with current players and front-office executives from both franchises. SEG will provide family-friendly entertainment, giveaways, a live DJ, appearances from team dancers, and select Jazz and Utah NHL players.

Doors will open at 5 p.m. MT on Wednesday, June 26, and the event will last until the conclusion of the first round. Utah holds the No. 10, No. 29, and No. 32 overall picks in the 2024 NBA draft.

The state’s first-ever Utah NHL Draft Party will begin at 4 p.m. MT on Friday, June 28, and last until the end of the first round. The Utah NHL franchise owns the No. 6 overall pick in the first round and 13 picks in the 2024 NHL draft.
