Glendale is a town in western Kane County, Utah, in Long Valley along the East Fork of the Virgin River.

The 2020 census counted 312 residents in Glendale, down from 381 in 2010.

Ranchers first came to Long Valley in 1862, and Robert and Isabella Berry named the area "Berryville", where permanent settlement began in 1864.

After the Berrys were killed by local Indigenous people in 1866, the other settlers left, and in 1871 settlers from the Muddy River settlement in Nevada resettled the place as Glendale.

The people of St. Thomas, Nevada, relocated en masse to Glendale that year, preserving their old ward organization in the new location.

Glendale later joined the United Order, the economic and moral reform program begun in 1874 under Brigham Young.

Glendale became an incorporated town on March 29, 1935.

U.S. Route 89 passes through the town, leading southwest 4 miles to Orderville and north 41 miles to Panguitch.

Glendale Bench Road leads east from the town to the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument.

The town sits at an elevation of about 5,778 feet, and its ZIP code is 84729.
