Cornbelly's opens at the same address it always has, 3003 North Thanksgiving Way, with the same 10-acre corn maze cut into the same field behind Thanksgiving Point. If you've made the trip every October for the last several years, most of what greets you at the gate will look familiar. But pull up the ticket page this month and one word you've said out loud every fall since you can remember is gone.
Insanity Point, the haunted trail that's run alongside Cornbelly's after dark for years, has a new name. It's called Frightbelly's now.
The rename is the real story, not the rebrand copy
A name change alone wouldn't be worth a second look if it were just a new coat of paint on the same walk-through. It isn't. Frightbelly's for 2026 is a 30-minute trail through the corn built around 23 haunted scenes, more than the "over 20" that Insanity Point advertised in recent seasons. The general admission side stays the same shape it's always had: hayrides, campfires, and the non-haunted maze open earlier in the evening, with the haunted trail kicking in after sunset for anyone who wants to add it.
There's also a sequencing detail worth knowing if you're planning an opening-weekend trip. The daytime side of Cornbelly's opens first, and Frightbelly's follows a day later. So if you show up the very first night, you'll get the corn maze, the rides, and the farm stuff, but not the haunted trail until the following evening.
Why the 30th-anniversary label still appears
Cornbelly's already had its 30th anniversary season. That happened last fall, in 2025, the same year the property took roughly $60,000 in vandalism damage that spring, according to Daily Herald reporting on the break-in. Cornbelly's spokesperson Kamille Combs told the paper the maze would still open on schedule that September despite the repairs, and it did, complete with a maze design cut specifically to mark the 30-year mark.
That means this season is year 31, not year 30. But if you go searching for Cornbelly's hours right now, you'll still run into pages that call it the 30th anniversary. One discount site currently lists the Lehi flagship as open "Sept. 19 - Nov 1 for our 30th anniversary," which is the anniversary wording from the 2025 season.
The Two Location Bundle product page, which bundles a single visit to both the Lehi and Spanish Fork farms for $30 against a combined regular value of $41.98, still describes itself as being offered "to celebrate our 30th season."
None of this changes whether you should go. It does mean the dates you'll find are inconsistent depending on where you look, which matters if you're planning around a specific weekend:
| Source | 2026 season dates listed |
|---|---|
| Cornbellys.com (official flagship ticket page) | September 24 to October 30 |
| NowPlayingUtah / Visit Salt Lake calendar listings | September 21 to October 31 |
| UtahKidsClub discount page (still tagged "30th anniversary") | September 19 to November 1 |
The official ticket page is the one that should govern your plans, but if you're buying a discount code from a third-party site, check the fine print against Cornbelly's own calendar before you commit to a night.
What's actually new on the ground this year
Strip away the anniversary confusion and there are a handful of attractions genuinely new to Cornbelly's Lehi this season: a Corn Cob Spinner ride, a Scarecrow Sing-Along show, and a stunt dog show that now includes a swimming pool as part of the act. Those join the roster that's defined Cornbelly's for years, the cow train, gemstone mining, the Jumbo Jumper air pillows, and pig races.
It's also worth knowing where this all started if you've never asked. The maze traces back to 1996, when Brett Herbst built his original labyrinth in a field in American Fork. It drew 18,000 visitors in three weeks, spawned a design company that's since built more than 5,500 mazes worldwide, and eventually moved to its current flagship spot at Thanksgiving Point. Cornbelly's isn't an import that landed in Lehi. It grew up a few miles down the road.
The same three weeks, elsewhere in Lehi
Cornbelly's isn't the only fixture on the calendar this fall. Lehi City runs its own Halloween Extravaganza at the Legacy Center on the Friday before Halloween, a family event with trick-or-treating around the indoor track, a spook alley, games, crafts, and music. Admission is $6 at the door or $5 in advance for kids, with adults free, and tickets go on sale October 1 at the Legacy Center registration office. It's a smaller, cheaper, indoor alternative for a night when you don't want to deal with lines at the maze, or a second stop the same week if your family wants both.
Where the night actually ends
If you're making a night of it, Thanksgiving Point's Water Tower Plaza sits close enough to walk to from the Cornbelly's parking lot. Harvest Restaurant, tucked into the plaza, serves the kind of comfort classics that work well after a couple of hours in the corn: grilled entrées, homemade soups, and a dining room built around restored hand-painted rooms if you want something calmer than a food truck line. Trellis Café, across the property inside Ashton Gardens, leans lighter with a seasonal lunch menu and a patio that looks out over the gardens, a better fit earlier in the day than after dark.
The takeaway for anyone who lives here
The version of Cornbelly's you remember from last fall isn't quite the version opening this month. The haunt has a new name and a genuinely different production behind it, the 30th anniversary already happened, and the listed dates vary by source. None of that requires a special trip to figure out. It just requires checking Cornbelly's calendar before you buy tickets.
This is the kind of detail that only shows up when you're paying attention to a place year over year, not just pulling up a listing once. That's the same lens Foundry Group brings to the Lehi market itself, watching what actually changes on the ground rather than repeating last year's headline. If you're a Lehi homeowner curious what your neighborhood's fall foot traffic or a new development nearby might mean for your home's value, or if you're thinking ahead to a move in Utah Valley, that's a conversation worth having before the season gets away from you.
