Rice-Eccles Stadium - Opening/Closing Ceremonies - Modern Olympic Venues on Waymarking.com

Rice-Eccles Stadium at University of Utah was used for the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. You can still see the Olympic cauldron at the location, and they have also located the Hoberman Arch there. The medal ceremonies took place under this arch.

The stadium was renamed "Olympic Stadium" during the games, but reverted back to its previous name of Rice-Eccles. However the entrance is still lined with signage from the Olympics.
