About This Show

Vernal, UT

The Crystal Festival gem and mineral show comes to Vernal, Utah — Dinosaurland USA and one of the most fossil-rich regions on earth — for a summer weekend of rocks, minerals, gems, and crystals. If you've been searching for a gem show in northeastern Utah, a rock and mineral show near Vernal, or a crystal show in the Uinta Basin, the Crystal Festival Vernal is the event for you. Vernal sits at the heart of the Uinta Basin, surrounded by Dinosaur National Monument and the Uinta Mountains — the only major east-west trending mountain range in the contiguous United States. Uintah County is legendary in the paleontology world for its Morrison Formation dinosaur fossils, but it's also home to significant mineral collecting sites, including the gilsonite deposits unique to the Uinta Basin, petrified wood, agate, and the stunning geology of the Book Cliffs. This Crystal Festival show brings 30+ curated vendors offering raw specimens, polished stones, crystal jewelry, fossils, dinosaur bones, and rare collector minerals from around the world. Whether you're a Utah rockhound, a fossil hunter, a crystal collector, or a family looking for a unique summer outing in northeastern Utah, the Crystal Festival Vernal is the gem and mineral show Dinosaurland has been waiting for. Kid's activities at every show. Free admission and free parking.
