Herriman Summer Events and New Openings to Watch in 2026

Vir Singh July 9, 2026

For years, much of Herriman's growth was residential, with shopping and services following behind. In 2026, several pieces that had long been plans started to become places.

The Commons at Herriman Towne Center

At 13400 South near Mountain View Corridor, The Commons at Herriman Towne Center reached its first milestone this fall. Trader Joe's opened its Herriman store at 4918 West 13400 South on October 9, as the Salt Lake Tribune reported. It's listed on the company's store page. A Target is planned as the center's anchor.

For residents nearby, the practical change is simple: more everyday errands can happen closer to home.

Juniper Canyon's Western Trailhead

The city has been building a western trailhead for the Juniper Canyon Recreation Area along Juniper Trail Drive, with parking, restrooms, a pavilion and about 5,800 feet of multipurpose trail, according to the city's Phase 3 update. It complements the existing eastern trailhead on Autumn Springs Drive, which already has parking, restrooms, a pavilion and paved trail access.

Mountain Ridge Park

Mountain Ridge Park opened with an all-abilities playground, a pavilion, restrooms, parking and a walking trail, and its grass playing fields were scheduled to become available in 2026.

What It Adds Up To

None of these is a dramatic change on its own. Together, they're the kind of steady additions that shape how a city feels day to day: a grocery store within reach, a trailhead with proper parking, a park with room to spread out. For people who live in Herriman, that's the part of the story worth following as The Commons fills in.
