Sports are always in season in Salt Lake and Park City. Groups can catch a game from a private box or join in the action at an Olympic-level facility.
The National Basketball Association’s Utah Jazz play in Salt Lake from the end of October through mid-April. Vivint Smart Home Arena offers luxurious private suites seating as many as 60. Dinner packages, fan experiences meeting favorite players and teambuilding opportunities are offered on the court. The arena is one block from Salt Palace Convention Center.
Let groups enjoy a slice of sports history at Utah Olympic Park, built in Park City for the 2002 Winter Olympics. In winter, they can experience the high-speed thrill of bobsledding. In summer, the bobsleds are placed on wheels, and the fun continues. Summer also offers the alpine slide, and exclusive zipline and discovery adventure course sessions. More mellow groups can enjoy guided bus tours of the facility and watch the Flying Ace All-Star show, wherein expert skiers perform amazing aerial feats before splashing down into a massive pool. Event spaces, which offer incredible views of the Uintah Mountains and Snyderville Basin, include a 300-person pavilion, a 150-seat theater, and the 2002 Olympic Museum, capable of hosting 200 for receptions.
Maverik Center, home of the East Coast Hockey League’s Utah Grizzlies, doubles as a 10,100-seat performing arts venue. Groups of 16 can watch Grizzlies action on the ice from luxury suites. The Grizzlies play from October through April. The center has more than 25,000 square feet of event space, including a 4,500-square-foot VIP conference room. Maverik Center is located west of downtown in West Valley City.
