The Intermountain Health Freestyle International Ski World Cup returns to Deer Valley Resort in 2025, transforming the slopes into a grand stage for exceptional freestyle skiers. From February 6-8, spectators will witness breathtaking displays of skill as top-tier athletes from around the world compete in heart-pounding moguls and gravity-defying aerial events.

No visit to Park City is complete without experiencing the vibrant local music scene, and at the heart of this musical tapestry is Mountain Town Music. This nonprofit organization orchestrates over 250 community concerts each year around Summit County. From intimate venues to grand outdoor stages, Mountain Town Music curates performances that showcase local talent and foster the small-town vibe. Checking the Mountain Town Music website and adding a few of their events to your itinerary is a great place to start. It’s more than just a night out, it’s a chance to tap into the rhythm of Park City life and experience the harmony that music brings to this mountain community.
Few local traditions capture the town’s playful spirit quite like Clown Day. Born in the seventies and coinciding with April Fools’ Day, this unique celebration once saw slopes overrun with costumed skiers in a riotous display of color and creativity. While the official event has been tamed over the years due to safety concerns, the spirit of Clown Day lives on in Park City’s collective memory and occasional unofficial revivals. April 1 in Park City offers a glimpse into the town’s irreverent past and present. Though you won’t see the slopes crowded with clowns as in days gone by, you will notice more odd attire and costumes. Savvy riders will overhear talk about the “clown flu” and slope-side shenanigans.

Alf Engen Ski Museum and Eccles Salt Lake 2002 Olympic Winter Games Museum at Utah Olympic Park offer a journey through the Intermountain Region’s rich skiing and Olympic heritage. Initially conceived in 1989 to honor ski legend Alf Engen, it expanded into a comprehensive winter sports cultural center following the Salt Lake 2002 Olympic Winter Games. Through interactive exhibits, historical artifacts and engaging programs, the museum illuminates the contributions of ski pioneers, showcases athletic achievements and explores innovations in ski technology. A highlight is the mountain sports simulator on the main floor, where visitors can virtually experience the thrill of a bobsled run on the 2002 Olympics track, enjoy powder skiing at Alta, tackle mountain biking at Deer Valley or try speed flying in Little Cottonwood Canyon. Being a familyfriendly, always-free attraction — combined with the museum’s Olympic gallery and snow safety and ski area development exhibits — makes this a must-visit attraction.
Imagine carving through pristine powder far from the crowded slopes in a place that feels like your own private resort.
