Deer Valley Resort's holiday activities have become a real Park City tradition with the local community and visiting guests alike. There's certainly a magic in the air this time of year, and we're happy to share in the holiday spirit with our visiting guests.  Do you have last minute shopping for the holidays?  Take time to explore more than 100 unique shops and boutiques, art galleries and specialty stores. From Indian rugs and jewelry to antique gifts and delicate linens...from designer wear and mountain apparel to new age books and fresh flowers - you'll find it all on Historic Main Street.

There aren't too many good reasons to leave our slopes, but eating is one of them, especially when you've visited a few of our 100+ restaurants.   You'll find everything from fast food to the most fashionable cuisine this side of, well, anywhere. So in Park City, the challenge isn't deciding when to eat, it's deciding where.

CELEBRATE THE HOLIDAY LINKS & ACTIVITIES:

You will find virtually everything open on New Year's Day in Park City, but it's usually a great day to hit the slopes!   There are usually great parties on New Year's Eve all along Main Street in Park City so just stroll and enjoy Park City's nightlife. The Canyons always has a great event for families on New Year's Eve, and it's an early night with Fireworks at 7:30 pm.  Celebrate New Year's Eve at The Canyons with an invite-only athlete rail jam, live music and a fireworks display at 7:30pm.
