7 Reasons to Go to the Park City Wine Festival: Spring Edition in Utah
The Colorado Connection
The Park City Wine Festival: Spring Edition is produced by Team Player Productions, the Colorado company behind the Breckenridge Wine Classic, Vail Craft Beer Classic, Vail Wine Classic and Tennyson Street Fair and others. So, you know they put on one heck of a great festival.
Park City is Awesome and Worth a Visit
The 1880’s silver mining town is just a 45-minute drive from the Salt Lake City airport. It has historic and new architecture, galleries, shops and restaurants. There’s a year-round, free trolley that circulates the historic core and free regional buses to visit other attractions around the valley. Don’t miss seeing the Egyptian Theatre, a community gem for live theater and concerts. Wasatch Brewery is there too, at the top of Main Street, serving up their brews made on-site.
If distilled spirits are your thing, check out Alpine Distilling’s Park City Social Aid & Pleasure Club for tastings, cocktails, live music and their famous “Alpine Gin Making Experience.”
For skiing and Olympics fans, the Utah Olympic Park is also in Park City, home to two museums and an official USOC training facility. The Alf Engen Ski Museum and George Eccles 2002 Olympic Winter Games Museum are definitely worth a stop too.
