While the name suggests a town in a perpetual cyclone, it was actually named in pre-meteorological times by a group of surveyors led by Mormon leader Erastus Snow who just experienced a forceful whirlwind in the early 1860s. The area earned the nickname "The Fruit Basket of Southern Utah" for its prolific fruit orchards and farms. The community hosts an annual celebration called Peach Days to celebrate its juiciest crop. The first Peach Day was in 1909, and it has returned in recent years to also include a parade, carnival, a custom car show, concerts and fruit displays. There is even a peach cook-off! Hurricane’s rich heritage and profound community pride is celebrated at the center of town, where you'll find the Hurricane Valley Pioneer Heritage Park. The museum’s highlights include period artwork, artifacts and a historic wedding cake dating back to 1907.
