Fun Places | Firefly Park
Hype:
Nibley is home to one of the few easily accessible public locations in the western U.S. where fireflies can be seen. The fireflies come out in early June and are usually gone by the first part of July. They typically don’t come out until about 10 p.m. and one of the best times to view them is during a New Moon. The best place to see them is along the sidewalk on the west side of Virgil Gibbons Heritage Park, near the big willow tree, where Firefly Park borders Heritage Park. You can park in either the parking lot for Heritage Park, located at 2380 S 800 W, or in the Firefly Park parking lot, which is located at 2400 S 1000 W. Please be aware of where your headlights are facing and turn them off as soon as it is safe to do so.
