Salt Lake City and Utah have quite the reputation for winter fun. From skiing, ice skating, Jazz Games, and the NHL entering the fray this October, it can seem like this city comes to life when the weather gets colder. While that international reputation is well earned, you would be remiss to think that the summertime isn’t just as fun. Whether you’re new in town, or a lifelong resident looking for something to do. We at Garbett Homes want to help you learn just a little bit more about what summer fun you can have in Salt Lake City.
Twilight Concert Series
For 37 years residents of Salt Lake City have been able to enjoy magical summer evenings with the Twilight concert series. Primarily hosted downtown at the Gallivan Center, this concert series typically runs from June to August and hosts artists from a wide swath of genres. This intimate outdoor experience gives music fans an opportunity to connect under stunning summer western skies. There are few better ways to connect to your new city than this event.
Farmers Markets
Utah is a state that values entrepreneurship. And the fact that there are multiple Farmers Markets throughout Salt Lake City is a testament to that fact. There are few better weekend highlights than enjoying the fresh air as you shop for fresh fruits and vegetables. Or maybe even finding that perfect local handmade craft to complete your new home. While doing your part to keep your new Salt Lake City home’s local economy strong. Learn more here.
