The Steel Days Fair and Drone Show is an extremely popular event that we are excited to do again in 2026! Beginning at 5:00 p.m., there will be activities for families, including bounce houses, a petting zoo, face painting, airbrush tattoos, henna tattoos, and a balloon twister. The Drone Show will begin at approximately 9:45 p.m. and will last about 23 minutes.

The Youth Entrepreneur Market will run from 5:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m. and vendor spaces will be assigned by the Steel Days Committee. The YEM offers an opportunity for youth businesses ("youth" is defined as any person from elementary school to having just graduated from high school in 2026) to reach thousands of potential customers, increase their brand awareness, connect with the community, and learn essential business principles. Vendors selling goods or services or non-profit organizations with a mission to have a positive impact on the community are invited to participate. Booth space is for selling merchandise, wares, or business marketing purposes only. The Steel Days Committee reserves the right to accept or decline any and all vendors. Setting up or engaging in these activities elsewhere in the park during the week of Steel Days is also prohibited. Any vendor or business wishing to participate in Steel Days MUST purchase a booth space.

Each booth space is approx. 10' x 10'. If you need more space, then you must pay for each additional booth space that you would like to use. Please be aware that Steel Days does not jury booth items; therefore, competitors selling same products might be located in the same area.

We will offer a couple of mentoring classes to help Youth Entrepreneurs learn about best practices for running a booth, how to price and market products/services, and understand expectations for participating as a Steel Days vendor.

FOOD VENDORS
We will have food trucks and vendors at the event. Any Youth hoping to sell food must be pre-approved by the Steel Days Committee and must adhere to all regulations and requirements from the Utah County Health Department.

The Steel Days Committee reserves the right to accept or decline any and all vendors. Setting up and operating as a vendor elsewhere in Art Dye Park during the week of Steel Days is also prohibited. Any vendor wishing to participate in Steel Days MUST purchase a vendor space.
