Vivint Arena and American Express are committed to creating world class experiences with the primary goal of keeping all guests safe. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Vivint Arena has been working diligently with state and local officials, as well as its own medical experts, as informed by the CDC, to establish and implement health and safety protocols for anyone who enters the arena.
A variety of food and beverage concession items are available for purchase within the Shop. In addition to fan favorites found around Vivint Arena, guests can also enjoy unique, locally sourced items from Salt Lake City small businesses that are not available anywhere else in the venue. Guests will also have access to select merchandise items traditionally found in the Jazz Team Store.
Card Members will tap their contactless Card, mobile wallet or insert their Card to enter the Shop. The technology tracks your movements throughout the space and upon exit charges your Card for your final purchase amount. Upon entry, you may see a $1.00 pre-authorization (or “hold”) on your account, which will be updated with the final amount of your purchase, or otherwise will drop off your account if you don’t make a purchase.
Levy, the venue concessionaire, will serve as the merchant of record and manage all operations within the store. In partnership with Vivint Arena, Levy will ensure all food safety requirements are met and Covid-19 protocols followed at all times. All purchases at the American Express Shop are subject to the policies, and terms and conditions, of Levy and Vivint Arena.
