Seasoned meeting planners know that finding the right destination is key to the success of an event. Not only quality venues and lodging have to be taken into consideration. The feel of a place, and the experiences meeting-goers have while exploring or networking at a local brewery or restaurant are just as important.
Enter Ogden, Utah, a historic city with incredible access to the outdoors and the perfect location to host a corporate or association gathering.
City, Nature and a Little Bit for Everyone
Ogden is nestled at the base of the Wasatch Mountains, boasting some of the most stunning views of the range a person can experience, with the mountains themselves a year-round playground for adventure lovers and those inclined to go out and soak up nature.
Ogden offers eclectic shopping at local businesses along Historic 25th Street and beyond. Often chided as Salt Lake City’s devious little sister, this street's been breaking the notions of what Utah is like for more than a century. With nicknames like Notorious Two-Bit Street and areas like Electric Alley, this street has seen it all. Now, meeting goers can stroll the street and pop into various boutiques, apothecaries, vintage shops and a beloved record store.
Today, Ogden's "Notorious" reputation continues through delicious cuisine, from casual pizza to some of the top rated restaurants in Utah, like Tona Sushi Bar and Grill. Visitors can also explore exciting nightlife, upscale lodging and flexible facilities for meeting planners to work with.
