Bill Engvall Benefit for WRCNU

Bill Engvall Benefit for WRCNU

Presented by Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of Northern Utah at Abravanel Hall

Bill performed his final show of his “Here's Your Sign – It's Finally Time Farewell Tour” on December 31, 2022 at the Eccles Theater in downtown SLC.  If you missed that show, or can't believe you have the opportunity to see him LIVE one more time, then this is the night you have been waiting for!

In 2019 Bill Engvall needed help rehabilitating an injured Great Horned Owl, and WRCNU answered his call for help. Now in 2023, WRCNU needs help raising money to continue our mission and Bill is answering our call for help. Please join us Saturday October 7th as Bill takes a break from retirement and says “Here’s your sign” one more time. Bill has generously offered  an unprecedented fundraising opportunity to WRCNU in our efforts to raise money for a new home, and ALL proceeds will go directly to this effort.  Because of our GREAT sponsors (Tracy Aviary, Rocky Mountain Power, Integrated Companies, Wild Birds Unlimited, Revolution Gear & Truck Parts, and Edward Jones  – South Ogden), every dollar of your ticket will go into this fund as they are paying all associated costs to putting on this concert.  Please join us for a night of comedy and help us keep our doors open.

The thing that makes any entertainer successful is the ability to connect with an audience. It’s the quality of sharing the humor in everyday situations that has made Bill Engvall one of the top comedians today – and one of the busiest.

Although he currently resides in Park City, Utah with his wife, Engvall is a native of Galveston, Texas. Early on, he moved to Dallas and was working as a disc jockey with plans of becoming a teacher. While in a nightclub one evening, Bill decided to try his hand at stand-up comedy and quickly found that making people laugh was truly his forte. Soon after, he decided to move to Los Angeles to pursue television opportunities.
