Set in Manti, Utah, the Large Animal Barn and Show Ring is a vast indoor venue — a 250' by 60' building that offers 15,000 square feet of uninterrupted floor for larger events. Rented as a full-day block (15 hours), the facility gives organizers extended time to stage, run, and dismantle an event, but operators expect the space returned completely clean to avoid a $300 cleaning fee or charges for damage.

Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE SPACE

15,000 Square Feet Under One Roof

The barn’s footprint—250 feet long by 60 feet wide—creates an open, unobstructed floorplate ideal for large-scale setups and assemblies that demand room to move.

THE SCHEDULE

A Full-Day Rental Gives Time to Breathe

Rentals are issued as a full-day block of 15 hours, providing ample time for setup, programming, and teardown within the same reserved period.

HOUSEKEEPING

Cleaning and Damage Policies You Can’t Ignore

To avoid an additional $300 charge, the facility must be returned completely clean; the same fee may apply if the space is damaged during your rental.

What the day feels like

What Hosting Here Actually Feels Like

Inside the Manti barn the scale is immediate: long sightlines and an uninterrupted floor invite bold layouts and large guest lists. Booking is handled in a full-day window (15 hours), so you can stage a full event cycle in one reservation. The practical constraint is housekeeping; organizers must plan teardown and cleaning into that same window to avoid an assessed $300 cleaning or damage fee.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this venue works best for — and what to watch for.

1
Event PlannersWell suited to planners organizing large-scale gatherings who can coordinate setup and full clean-up within the rental block and accept responsibility for the facility’s condition.
2
Community OrganizationsGood for community events that need a large, flexible indoor footprint, provided organizers factor in housekeeping responsibilities to avoid the cleaning fee.
3
Vendors & ExhibitorsExhibitions or vendor markets can benefit from the uninterrupted floor space, but vendors must coordinate teardown and site cleanliness within the allotted rental time to prevent additional charges.
4
Small Private GatheringsNot optimal for intimate events that don’t need expansive square footage; the venue’s scale and the expectation to return it spotless make it better suited to larger or logistically equipped groups.
