Just 35 minutes from Salt Lake City International Airport, Park City offers a blend of accessibility and alpine appeal, making it a standout destination for meetings and events. Here, planners will find a rare balance of elevated amenities and authentic mountain-town charm, where walkable historic streets, world-class resorts, and a dynamic arts and culture scene create an engaging environment for attendees.
Park City offers approximately 4,000 committable hotel rooms across a mix of luxury resorts, nationally recognized brands, and boutique properties. Groups of up to 700 can be accommodated within more than 125,000 square feet of meeting space, with options ranging from traditional conference environments to inspired, one-of-a-kind venues. Recent additions include Hotel Haynes, now part of Marriott Tribute Portfolio, with 127 guest rooms alongside new indoor and expansive outdoor meeting space. Other properties—such as the 175-room Pendry Park City, with more than 8,000 square feet of meeting space, and the 160-guest room Waldorf Astoria Park City, with 4,685 square feet of meeting space—deliver modern mountain luxury, while Deer Valley standouts like the 180-room Stein Eriksen Lodge, 220-guest room Montage Deer Valley, and 179- room St. Regis Deer Valley continue to elevate the meetings experience with their vast square footage for meetings. For planners seeking something beyond the expected, offsite venues like the Utah Olympic Park and various award-winning restaurants and local distilleries offer memorable settings.
Park City’s cultural fabric is rooted in its rich history as a 19th-century silver mining town. Along Historic Main Street—home to dozens of buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places—attendees can explore a walkable district defined by thoughtful preservation and modern energy. That blend comes to life in venues like Le Depot Brasserie, set within a restored 19th-century train station, where design details nod to the town’s silver mining and railroad heritage. Nearby, Union Patisserie and Courchevel Bistro complete a charming “French Quarter,” each featuring an outdoor terrace that offers a natural setting for group gatherings.
Culinary and craft-beverage experiences give planners creative ways to engage attendees. Alpine Distilling offers hands-on “make your own gin” programs ideal for small groups, while High West Distillery has become a cornerstone of the local scene, with multiple venues ranging from its lively Main Street saloon to curated whiskey-pairing dinners at the Nelson Cottage. Just outside town in Wanship, the distillery’s larger campus provides immersive tours and dining experiences alongside neighboring The Lodge at Blue Sky, where groups can incorporate wellness programming, equestrian activities, and outdoor recreation into their itineraries.
Events throughout the year add even more opportunities to build memorable agendas. Signature gatherings like Savor the Summit transform Main Street into an open-air dining experience each June, while Park City Wine Festival and Kimball Arts Festival in August and Deer Valley Mountain Beer Festival in September showcase the destination’s vibrant food, beverage, and arts scenes.
