There is no better way to check out Park City than on an ebike ride! Download the Summit Bike Share app and take a ride to see Park City's historic sites and public art installations.

The Running of the Balls is a classic Park City event!

Park City's mining history goes back to the 1800s! Before we were a ski town, this was a community that plumbed the depths of the Wasatch mountains for silver. Every year in early September, we celebrate that history on Miner's Day. With a parade on Main Street, the Running of the Balls, and family-friendly activities all day, you'd be hard pressed not to have fun and learn some incredible history along the way. Check out the full schedule of Miner's Day events and start planning! 

Grab Local Fare at Copper Moose Farm

Copper Moose is a small-scale, organic vegetable and cut-flower farm. September is a fantastic time to stop by their farm stand as the season is in full swing. They're busy planting, growing, and harvesting in the fields and greenhouses to stock the farm stand with fresh produce for you to enjoy. A visit to the Copper Moose is a special experience as you'll find only freshly harvested produce, flower bouquets, and an array of artisan goods from other local community partners.

Get Spooked on a Ghost Tour

Back to Top of List
Spooky ghost tours are a great way to learn more about Park City's more sinister history!

Park City has a spooky side to it. In days far past, there were land barons and mine owners that lived large lives and lost so much. Their spirits live on in Park City, inhabiting various buildings throughout Old Town. Take a Ghost Tour and level up on our spooky past. The Ghost Tours are led by seasoned experts in Park City lore and history. September is a great time for these as it's the eve of Fall and Halloween is creeping up faster than you think. What better way to dip into the Halloween spirit than to experience some spookiness! 

Sample Suds at Deer Valley's Mountain Beer Festival

Where do you think you could find 21 breweries in an alpine setting with non-alcoholic options and lawn games and activities for the whole family? Oh, and you have to take a scenic chairlift ride to get there. Heavenly sounding, right? It's the Deer Valley Mountain Brew Festival, duh. With different entrance packages available, food, and shwag—Deer Valley's ode to hops and brews is a fun time in an incredible mountain setting. This brew is not to be missed—September 12 - 14!
