Fare Agreement: Special Events Agreement for Ogden Twilight Concert Series (Ogden Twilight LLC)
end
AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Service or Fare Approval
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize the Executive Director to execute a Special Events Agreement with Ogden Twilight LLC for the Ogden Twilight Concert Series.
BACKGROUND:
UTA has historically partnered with Ogden Twilight LLC to offer ticket-as-fare to the Corporation’s Twilight Concert Series. The partnership allows ticket holders to use their event ticket to ride UTA services on the date printed on the ticket. Valid services include Bus, TRAX, Frontrunner, Streetcar, BRT and Microtransit. Paratransit eligibility applies.
DISCUSSION:
Staff recommends continuing to partner with Ogden Twilight LLC to offer the Special Events Pass Agreement for their Twilight Concert Series. FrontRunner does not operate on Sundays. For this reason, UTA will only contract for concerts held on days other than Sundays. The pricing for the 2026 concert series will be $14,691.
This pricing is calculated based on a standard formula which uses historical trip data obtained from the automated passenger counter system. The trip count from historical data, and other variables such as event location and time of day, are used to forecast trips for the event. The fare rate ($3.75 group pass rate) is multiplied by the forecasted trips.
