Early arrival or late departure? Enjoy a bit more of what Utah has to offer!

Utah is home to FIVE national parks featuring some of the most iconic landscapes in the west. A few hours south of Salt Lake, these parks offer breathtaking views and world-class outdoor recreation. (You can even pack them all in within a few days!)

Closer to Salt Lake City — but a world away — lies the phenomenon that is the Bonneville Salt Flats. And just 25 minutes from downtown is Little Cottonwood Canyon, the perfect spot for hiking and outdoor activities. Visit Albion Basin to see the famous meadow of wildflowers, which will be in peak bloom during the Crossroads of the World International Trade Summit. There plenty of other trails to explore in the canyons near Salt Lake.

Historic Park City is just a 45-minute drive away! Home of the Sundance Film Festival, Park City offers beautiful mountain views, outdoor activities, galleries, theaters, and an iconic main street.

With recent news of the NHL's Arizona Coyotes relocation to Salt Lake, rumors of MLB expansion, and the 2034 Olympics coming to the state, Utah is becoming a hub for sports! Take yourself out to a ball game and watch the Salt Lake Bees minor league baseball team. They will be playing every night from May 21-26.

For those who identify as "indoorsy," explore City Creek and The Gateway for fantastic stores and food options. Utah provides a wide variety of cuisine, so whatever genre best suits your taste buds, give one of these recommendations a try!

Other attractions and activities include the Clark Planetarium, Salt Lake Zoo, Loveland Aquarium, Utah Symphony, Utah Opera, the Eccles Theater, and Lagoon, the largest family owned amusement park in the United States.ion
