It’s the most wonderful time of the year in Park City! The slopes are covered in snow, the lights are all aglow, and there’s something so magical about the holidays here. I’m ready to shop at my favorite local shops, indulge in food (make sure to get your dinner reservations!), and spend time with my friends and family. Wishing you and your family the happiest of holidays.
Here’s to the Good Life and a good 2025!

LOCAL GIFT GUIDE
Giving local just feels good! I always love shopping local when I can, and it’s even more meaningful during the holidays. And you’ll find it’s super easy to support local this holiday season with a guide full of GOOD PC gifts to give!
GET HOLLY & JOLLY
Celebrate holiday traditions with an unforgettable meal from a local restaurant. There are a bunch of ways to celebrate and indulge in savoring multi-course meals, lavish buffets, and indulgent seasonal menus to toast a magical Christmas and a happy New Year.
HOLIDAY DECOR GALORE
My go-to for fresh holiday decor is Park City Gardens! From real trees, holiday plants, to gifts—they have everything you need for a fresh & festive holiday. They also make custom wreaths—BIG and small. And don’t forget to grab a treat at the café while you shop and follow them for other super cute holiday happenings like their wreath workshops on 12/4 & 12/12!
SNOW GLOBE STROLL
The Main Street Snow Globe Stroll features seven life-size snow globes you enjoy from the literal snow globe we live in! Each globe is designed by a different local artists—they’re super cute. There’s also a fun scavenger hunt for kids!
GONDOLA ART STROLL
In addition to the Snow Globes, go check out some more holiday inspired art from local artists at Canyons! Explore six different art installations, each enclosed within a retired Red Pine Gondola cabin. These cabins are placed around Canyons Village!
SANTA PUB CRAWL
Go have a holly, jolly, GOOD time for a good cause! The annual Santa Pub Crawl will take place on Dec 7. The crawl starts off at Butcher’s with stops at Downstairs and others with a special finale party at The Marquis with special guests RATS (if you’re never seen them, they’re so good!).
SILLY HOLIDAY BAZAAR
The Silly Holiday Bazaar is a festive, indoor, holiday market where family, friends and vendors can have fun while making the most of the holiday spirit! The bazaar will take place 12/13 – 12/15 at the DoubleTree Park City Yarrow Hotel. Entry to the bazaar is FREE.
THE NUTCRACKER
Summit Dance Project proudly presents the Annual Park City Nutcracker on Dec 14. This beloved tradition is performed exclusively by dance students in the Park City community and is great for all ages! If you can’t make these dates, see my Holiday Happenings below for SLC shows.
ICE CASTLE TICKETS
While the exact opening date isn’t relieved (it depends on cooperative temps!), tickets for Midway Ice Castles are on sale now! Grab your spot, and add on a horse sleigh ride to add to the magic!

GOOD FOOD
TILLY’S CHARCOAL CHICKEN
From everyone’s favorite brunch spot, comes another elevated dining concept! The owners of Five5eeds are bringing an Aussie staple to Park City—Tilly’s Charcoal Chicken. I went and checked it out over their soft opening weekend and it was GOOD! This is a great (and elevated) takeaway option. At the heart of Tilly’s is the Josper rotisserie, a specialized fully charcoal-fired oven crafted in Barcelona, Spain that creates a distinctive golden crust while sealing in moisture. I can confirm: the chicken is GOOD. Also, you have to try the Lebanese garlic sauce! I’m excited to bring this home to the family as an easy and affordable to-go option that’s fresh (and mostly so I don’t have to cook!). Also, Tilly’s has a no-tipping policy, focusing instead on straightforward pricing for their takeout-oriented service model. Love that and love Tilly’s chicken and the crew, go check it out!
