Visit Salt Lake

Salt Lake is the place where the Wasatch mountain peaks frame city streets. Sure, Salt Lake's famed for our winter powder ([four legendary ski resorts](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/skiing-snowboarding/) just 30 minutes from downtown), but that's just one season's story. Summer brings families [hiking through wildflower meadows](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/outdoor-recreation/) before cooling off at a Jazz game or the Gateway fountains. Autumn paints our mountain canyons in gold, perfect for morning strolls that end at local coffee shops. Spring? That's when you might spot baby bison on Antelope Island before heading to the Eccles Theater for a Broadway show. Our soaring Wasatch Mountains rise dramatically from downtown Salt Lake, creating a place where every day offers both natural wonders and urban energy. And while we sit perfectly between the [national parks](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/outdoor-recreation/state-national-parks/) with Yellowstone's geysers and Utah's red rock country, the real magic happens right here, where everyone can [discover the history](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/plan-your-visit/about-salt-lake/) of the city as they find their own rhythm between mountain adventure and city life.

Sports Salt Lake

A sorcerer’s curse. An infernal dance. A breathtaking finale. You’ll be spellbound by Stravinsky’s bold, rhythmic, and powerful Firebird. Originally commissioned as a ballet and revised over several decades, The Firebird Suite has established itself as essential listening for arts lovers—iconic for its rich storytelling and groundbreaking composition. Join us for Stravinsky’s 1945 revision, often cited as the most precise and brilliant way to experience the work. Three gems open the program, including Mendelssohn’s marvelous Overture to A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Vaughan Williams’ Serenade to Music (which is so expressive and lyrical that he later created a choral version). Alexandra Dariescu brings her “exquisite” and “fine-spun” technique to Clara Schumann’s lush and honey-hued Piano Concerto.This calendar listing is brought to you by NowPlayingUtah.com, Utah's one-stop, online website for arts and entertainment events, powered by the Utah Cultural Alliance.
