Sky SLC is a ritzy live music venue in the city's bustling downtown area. The sprawling multifaceted space features a moving room and a spacious dance floor where crowds swirl to the groovy tracks spun by the DJs. Its breezy terrace is also a quiet spot for those who wish to escape the party buzz. Sky offers 18 ritzy VIP lounges, while some have private verandas. With more than 20 on-tap brews, toothsome grub options and high-tech audio visual set-up, it serves as one of the foremost event venues of Salt Lake City.
One of the city's largest parks, the Sugar House Park is a spacious retreat and is also among the prettiest parks to see, in any season. Several large pavilions are available for booking, but call early since they tend to go fast. There is a creek running through the park, which feeds into a duck pond on the west end. Stop by for a jog around the paved roads, or walk around the trail that lines the park's outer edge. Or, simply lie in the grass and watch the many squirrels.
El Great Salt Lake State Park ha sido popular entre los bañistas, desde que los pioneros mormones llegaron por primera vez a la cuenca a mediados del siglo XIX. Aunque no se necesita saber nadar (el alto contenido de sal del agua mantiene a flote hasta a quienes no saben nadar), los bañistas deben ser conscientes de que el agua es super salada y puede irritar la garganta, los ojos y la nariz. Hay un pequeño centro de visitantes que ofrece un museo, información local y un video sobre el lago, mientras que SaltAir ofrece algunas tiendas, algunos puntos de venta de alimentos y un espacio para conciertos y otros eventos.
