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

Strive toward the future. Learn from the past. The (R)evolution of Steve Jobs feels as epic and fresh as the release of the first-gen iPhone in 2007. Inspired by the man behind the devices you use every day, Mark Campbell and Mason Bates’ GRAMMY®-winning one-act production explores the complex life, ambition, and spiritual searching of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs in a gripping theatrical experience. Themes of connection and disconnection unfold through the signature “Symphonic Electronica” style of composer Mason Bates (who moonlights as a DJ and recently premiered a runaway hit at The Metropolitan Opera, The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay). In the orchestra pit, the Utah Symphony intertwines with pulsing electronic beats, ambient soundscapes, and other digitally inspired textures that mirror the world Jobs helped create. It’s no wonder this Utah Opera re-release has been in demand since 2022!
