Thousands of people were forced to take shelter Saturday evening as a storm hit Salt Lake City.

The “RedWest” music festival is in its second of three days at the Utah State Fairpark, with Post Malone scheduled as the day’s headliner.

Shortly before 5:15 p.m., attendees were notified the festival’s mobile app that the shows would be paused temporarily. Organizers then announced on social media that everyone was told to gather their belongings, leave the venue and take shelter.

They later said there are UTA buses standing by on 300 North.
