Park City Event Guide: Thanksgiving 2019

November 19, 2019 by Shelby Hintze, Colony PR

We’re skipping ahead a week so you have a little more time to plan for the big Thanksgiving weekend! Whether you’re looking for a holiday buffet, a swanky sit-down feast, or a cozy at home dinner (without the cooking), there are plenty of options out there. Let’s take a look at all the ways to celebrate and give thanks in Park City.

FIRST: FOOD

First—the food on Thursday. If you want a buffet, we suggest the Thanksgiving Harvest Buffet at Grand Summit Hotel.

There’s something for everyone. Go HERE for pricing info and HERE to see the full (DELICIOUS) menu.

For a sit-down experience, we’re really digging the three-course prix-fixe menu at Powder at the Waldorf Astoria.  There’s an option for those of you who are turkey-averse, don’t worry. See pricing info HERE and the menu HERE.

And if you’d rather stay in your pajamas and nosh all day in the comfort of your own home, get a to-go meal from Riverhorse Provisions. You will have to leave the house to get it but it’ll be worth it when all you have to do is heat and serve a delicious meal. You’re going to want to preorder, which you can do HERE.

In my family, we do Pie Day the day before or after, because we just don’t have room for dessert the day of! If you’ve been tasked with bringing a pie, check out Hearth and Hill for all of your baked goods, including cake if you’re one of those people who isn’t into pies… Place your order ahead of time and pick it up between November 26th-November 28th. Check it out HERE.

There are so many amazing places to eat throughout Park City, we couldn’t possibly highlight all of them. The Park City Restaurant Association has a wrap up if you want to see what else is out there. You can see that HERE.

GET MOVING

The food is the most important, but what else is going on Thanksgiving weekend? Here’s a breakdown.

Skiing and snowboarding at Park City Mountain Resortwill be open for a pre- or post-Thanksgiving ski.

Or go on a pre-Turkey jog at the Lululemon Turkey Trot 5k at Matt Knopp Park. Register HERE.

And on Thursday, try a Turkey Fitness Class at Basin Rec Classes are $10 or bring a canned good and pay $5.

  • Turkey Yoga from 8am-9am – The Fieldhouse Studio C
  • Turkey Spin from 8am-9am – The Fieldhouse Studio B
  • Turkey Burn from 9am-10am – The Fieldhouse turf field
  • Turkey Dance from 9am-10am – The Fieldhouse Studio A

On Saturday, get out at the Swaner Nature Walk – if there’s snow, get ready to snowshoe! And to get everyone outside, try a scavenger hunt through One Team. All you need is a smartphone and they’ll send you the info.

GO SHOPPING

We all know about amazing Black Friday deals, but what about Small Business Saturday? Main Street Businesses will host promotions and specials on this awesome Saturday! HERE is a list of all the small businesses along Park City’s Historic Main Street.

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

Park City Film is hosting a Thanksgiving Break film series, Home Alone on Wednesday and Meet Me in St. Louis on Friday. Get more info on the free screenings HERE.

And on Friday-Sunday, see MY favorite film of the year, Downton Abbey. Get tickets HERE. If you want to see some live music, check out The Lovin’ Spoonful at the Egyptian Theater. Get tickets HERE.

If art Is more your speed, check out the best galleries Park City’s Main Street has to offer at the Last Friday Gallery Stroll. And if you want to make some art, get those creative juices flowing at the Wrap It Up! Gift Wrap Making workshop at the Kimball Art Center.

Park City Event Guide: September 13 – 19

September 14, 2019 by Shelby Hintze, Colony PR

The back to school routine is starting to become well, routine. Luckily, there are a lot of fun things happening this weekend to break the monotony, as we gear up for what the pumpkin spice aficionados call the best time of year — FALL.

In fact, it’s already snowed here at least once – so winter really doesn’t seem too far off at the moment. Get out and enjoy some crisper temperatures without having to bundle up in a million layers. There are some great hikes, concerts, and, oh yes, this cool hot air balloon festival called Autumn Aloft – all happening in Park City this weekend.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 14

Autumn Aloft
Saturday and Sunday, 8 AM and 8 PM
North 40 Field (Behind Treasure Mtn. Jr. High)

See balloonists paint the sky at Autumn Aloft!

Watching more than two dozen hot air balloons inflate and launch is the stuff kids’ dreams and Instagram feeds are made of. And, in addition to the main, colorful launch in the morning, be sure to catch the “Candlestick” magic (choreographed balloon burners spitting fire into the dark sky!) in Old Town in the evening. Main Street shuts down – and turns out all its lights – for this spectacle.

At the main launch, tethered rides may be available on a first-come, first-served basis (but are not guaranteed). And this year, GOBA Springfree Trampolines will have two demo areas, and if you make a purchase, you save $200 – and that money all goes to the Park City Historic Alliance. That’s the non-profit organization which puts on the community Autumn Aloft event each year. You can find that promo code HERE.

driftwood

Canyons Village Summer Concert Series: Driftwood
6 PM @ Canyons Village at Park City Mountain Resort
Every Thursday and Saturday night, the resort will host a free, outdoor concert. This week, Driftwood is the featured performer. From the PCMR website “Anyone familiar with the Americana music scene knows this Upstate, New York-based band has cut their teeth on a killer live show. With a never-ending tour schedule and a steady buzz, they have built a very solid underground fan base. “The game has been live shows and nose to the ground since the beginning,” says guitarist/songwriter Dan Forsyth. As well as a devout following and a sizable discography, the band’s hard work has also been a huge part of the inspiration for their music. The songs and arrangements have grown out of time spent on the road, growing closer, learning with and from each other and weathering the up’s and down’s of the journey together.”
