Park City might be famous for its snow, but ask any local and they’ll tell you that summer is the real secret. The skies are wide open, the air’s crisp and cool, and every weekend brings something worth clearing your calendar for. It’s not just a place to vacation. It’s a place to live well.
Our summer events blogpost reached a lot of interested people, so here is a 2025 version. Please reach out if you want to know more!
If you’re thinking about making Park City your home (or second home), here’s a look at what life here feels like this summer. Spoiler: it’s pretty incredible.
1. Deer Valley Music Festival: Evenings That Stay With You
There’s something magical about watching a symphony as the sun dips behind the mountains. Picture a blanket on the lawn, a beverage in hand, and the Utah Symphony playing Disney or Tchaikovsky just a few feet away. You don’t get that in the city.
Pro Tip:
The VIP tables are worth every penny. But if you live nearby, nothing beats walking to the show with friends and settling in just before the first note.
2. Savor the Summit: Dinner Parties Don’t Get Better Than This
Once a year, Main Street transforms into one long, beautiful dining table. Each restaurant claims its stretch of road and pulls out all the stops. Think multi-course menus, wine pairings, string lights, and lots of toasting.
Pro Tip:
When your address is right off Main Street, you’re not just close to the action—you’re part of it. This is the kind of night that reminds you why you moved here.
3. Kimball Arts Festival: Art, Music, and Summer Energy
Main Street turns into an open-air gallery for one packed weekend in August. Artists from across the country show off everything from massive sculptures to delicate watercolors. Add live music, wine tastings, and a fun crowd, and you’ve got one of the best weekends of the year.
Pro Tip:
If you live nearby, you’ll hear the buzz from your balcony. Or better yet, just walk out your front door and into the heart of it all.
4. Yoga on the Mountain: Start the Day With a View
There’s yoga. Then there’s yoga in the mountains. Classes pop up at the Montage, Waldorf, and even in town squares. It’s relaxed, it’s welcoming, and the view alone is worth waking up for.
Pro Tip:
Many luxury homes here have decks or quiet outdoor spaces that are perfect for your own private sunrise flow.
5. Canyons Village Summer Concert Series: Music, Mountains, and Sunset Skies
These shows are free, fun, and full of energy. Local food trucks roll in, families spread out on the grass, and the music always hits just right as the sun sets behind the ridgeline.
Pro Tip:
When you live close enough to grab a bottle of wine, walk over in flip-flops, and be home before the stars are fully out.
6. Summer Outside: Trails, Lakes, and a Lifestyle That Moves
Trail runs. Paddleboard yoga. Mountain bike races. Fly fishing clinics. Park City doesn’t slow down after the snow melts—it just shifts gears. This is a town made for being outside.
Pro Tip:
Many homes are built with that lifestyle in mind. Think gear rooms, extra garage space, trail access right out your back door.
7. Park Silly Sunday Market: Our Version of Sunday Brunch
This isn’t your average farmers market. It’s got everything from live bands and face painting to kombucha on tap and handmade everything. It’s colorful, quirky, and always fun.
Pro Tip:
Locals who live nearby stroll over with their coffee, bring the dog, and make a full morning of it—no parking hassle required.
