Your Park City CME conference.

Park City after your study day

Study days finish at 2:00 PM local time. For an easy afternoon, choose one outing near your study setting: the Park City Museum on Main Street, a gallery stroll and dinner along Main Street, or a visit to Utah Olympic Park. Leave time for getting around, and consider the bus system that Visit Park City suggests using instead of driving once you arrive.

Travel, accommodation and any attraction admission are arranged separately. Your conference is built around your specialty and interests; the town is the setting you choose for it.

Main Street and mining history

The Park City Museum is in Old Town on Historic Main Street, at 528 Main Street. Visit Park City describes local museums as covering the area’s mining history, its 2002 Olympic legacy and the Ute and Shoshone peoples. Check the museum’s current hours against your 2:00 PM finish before planning around it.

Visit Park City suggests a walk and dinner on Main Street in the evening, along with shopping and a gallery stroll. Choose Main Street if you want an easy, walkable afternoon rather than a longer excursion.

Olympic legacy at Utah Olympic Park

Utah Olympic Park was built for the Salt Lake 2002 Olympic Winter Games and is about 25 miles east of Salt Lake City, according to its operator. It has one of only four sliding tracks in North America and six Nordic ski jumps, and it hosts a 2002 Winter Games museum along with adventure activities such as tubing in winter. Look at its current schedule before deciding between a late-afternoon visit and a day of its own.

For time outdoors, Visit Park City describes more than 400 miles of paved and natural surface trails, along with mountain biking and other outdoor activities. Trail conditions change by season, so check them locally.

Galleries, theatre and live music

Visit Park City says galleries line Historic Main Street and the rest of town, with rotating exhibitions. The Kimball Art Center presents international-quality art exhibitions and runs classes and workshops, and the Egyptian Theatre is the town’s historic performing space. Park City’s film history, linked to Robert Redford and the Sundance Film Festival, shows up in year-round public screenings, often with discussion afterwards.

In summer, Concerts on the Slopes at The Canyons and the Deer Valley Music Festival and Concert Series bring live music to alpine settings. Beyond town, Visit Park City lists zip lines and adventure parks, distillery tours and spa options among other activities. Event calendars change each season, so check the tourism board’s listings for the dates you will be there.

The Historic Mine Route

The Park City Museum’s website announces that the Park City Historic Mine Route is open, with an audio guide, maps and directions, and lists Glenwood Cemetery among the sites it helps preserve. The museum’s Tozer Gallery is showing an exhibition on parades, processions and protests that runs through April 4, 2027, and its Hal Compton Research Library holds oral histories and historic photos. Together with the museum on Main Street, that gives you a self-guided way to follow the mining history without joining a group, which suits a study schedule that ends at 2:00 PM.

When to visit Park City

Visit Park City describes winter as chilly and snowy. Spring warms gradually, summer is warm and dry with long daylight and highs in the high 80s°F, and fall temperatures cool quickly, with snow returning by late fall. Use the local forecast when you plan outdoor time.

Getting to Park City and your study setting

Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC) is the arrival point shown in this guide. Visit Park City says the airport is just 35 minutes from town, and that rideshares, shuttles and private transfers are available. Visit Park City suggests leaving the car parked and using the buses, which connect skiing, biking and town.
