COMMUNITY - "Peach Days: The tradition continues"

BRIGHAM CITY - September 7, 2021

It began in 1904.

Since then, Brigham City’s annual Peach Days celebration has become a welcomed tradition, drawing huge crowds each September.

This year’s event is slated for September 8-11, and will include a motorcycle show, car show, carnival, parades and food and craft vendors.

New this year will be a patriotic program on Saturday morning, beginning at 9:30 a.m.. This event will be held at Forest and Main and will honor veterans and first responders. Viewers along the parade route or at home can watch it on Facebook Live at the Box Elder Chamber of Commerce page.
