Nestled in the Wasatch Mountains lies a city enjoying dynamic growth and undeniable momentum. Salt Lake’s natural gifts, down-to-earth charm and progressive spirit make it the best of all worlds. And when it comes to meeting destinations, it feels like the perfect place to get things done. 

Visitors to Salt Lake quickly notice that getting to the city is a no-stress proposition. Serving 95+ cities with nonstop service, the new Salt Lake International Airport has been ranked #1 for on-time arrivals and departures. And 22 additional gates are being added in 2023. Once here, you’re just ten minutes to the downtown convention district.  

Growth in all the right places.

Utah’s capital ranks as the seventh fastest-growing city in the U.S. And much of this change is making Salt Lake an even more convenient and appealing destination for meetings. 

Start with new hotels including the Hyatt Regency, offering 700 guest rooms with floor-to-ceiling views of downtown and the nearby mountains—instantly making guests feel immersed in the city’s stunning landscapes. 

Two more vibrant additions are the Element Salt Lake City Downtown and Le Meridien, offering plenty of comfort, amenities and convenience—both easily accessible to the city’s most renowned draws. 

Salt Lake’s impressive growth brings the number of downtown dining options to more than 200 – all within one mile of the convention center. And it features an ever-growing number of restaurants recognized by the prestigious James Beard Foundation. 

A focus on balance and harmony.
