Utah Festival Ballet acquired its current Nutcracker sets from Colorado Ballet in 2023. These sets were originally designed for San Francisco Ballet at the War Memorial Opera House before being passed down to Colorado Ballet and now, Utah Festival Ballet. We are so excited to share this beautiful scenery with you once again this year.
