Families
Family life in Salt Lake City, by age
What's on in Salt Lake City for babies, toddlers, preschoolers, kids and teens — sorted by age, dated, and pulled from the town's real event feed.
Family life in Salt Lake City, by age
Family life in Salt Lake City, sorted the way parents actually search: by how old your kid is. Salt Lake City's feed carries 277 family listings in total, 239 of them dated in the next 60 days. The busiest family venues in the feed right now are Main Library (39) and Marmalade Branch (39). Pages with their own age sections: baby, toddler, preschool, kids.
Start with the age pages if one fits — they're filtered hard, only real dated listings — or scan everything coming up below. If a band doesn't have a page yet, it's because the feed doesn't have enough dated listings for that age to fill one honestly, and we'd rather say that than pad it.
By age — pick your stage
Baby (0–1) — 50 dated listings in the next 60 days, including Book Baby.
Toddler (1–3) — 36 dated listings in the next 60 days, including Family Storytime.
Preschool (3–5) — 47 dated listings in the next 60 days, including Family Storytime.
Kids (5–12) — 19 dated listings in the next 60 days, including Harry Potter and the Cursed Child (Touring).
Teens (13–18) — 2 dated listings and 0 regular programs in the feed right now; not enough yet for its own page (our floor is 5 dated or 3 regular). It rides on this hub until the data catches up.

Good to know
On cost: none of these listings carries a free tag in Salt Lake City's feed, so treat prices as check-the-listing — libraries and rec centres often run these at no cost, but the feed doesn't say so and we won't guess.

Common questions
What's on for families in Salt Lake City?
The feed lists 239 dated family listings in the next 60 days across all ages — the Coming up section shows the soonest, and the age pages filter them down.
Why doesn't Salt Lake City have a page for my child's age?
An age page only ships when the feed has at least 5 dated listings (or 3 regular programs) for that age in the next 60 days. Below that we'd be padding — so the band rides on this hub, with its real count shown, until the listings catch up.
