About
Historic Park City is the gem among riches. Nestled in the valley flanked by Park City Mountain Resort on one side, and Deer Valley on the other, it is the heart and soul of our mountain town and the epicenter of all that is fun and wild. Historic Park City’s has a rich and storied past: it began as a raucous silver town, nearly faded into history as a ghost town, and then re-invented itself as a ski town that grew into a world-class destination and host to global events such as the 2002 Winter Olympics and the Sundance Film Festival. At the center of Historic Park City is Main Street--home to over 200 unique businesses. Visitors can shop among at independent boutiques, dine at one-of-a-kind restaurants, relax at a restorative spa, ride the town lift to play in the mountains, stay in style within a short walk of everything, revel in our spirited nightlife, discover something to treasure from our lively art community, and connect with loved ones with memorable experiences.

Was not an area for small children, they would get bored. Nothing for teens either. Adult area unless your going for food only with them. No free parking, everything was pay. And on a Tuesday night at 8pm they were issuing Tickets.Visited December 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten December 6, 2023
- RonUnited States3 contributionsA cross between an Alaska port-of-call and GatlinburgOverpriced, crowded, full of silly and needless trinkets, but some gems buried here and there as well. Somewhere between the $12,000 fur coats and the overpriced polished rocks is a good experience if you roll with it and just enjoy it for what it is. We picked up a pair of jeans for $15, and enjoyed two hours of wondering how many people buy animal skins and furs these days. Park City seems to be the epicenter for the fur and animal skin trade in these parts. “Since 1872,” the sign proudly proclaims. Some good (and overpriced) food and drink along the way, but you probably expected as much, didn’t you? It’s easy to spend 2-4 hours on the Main Street, and a devoted shopper could spend a day or two in the art and jewelry stores. The Pando Store alone looked fascinating if that sort of art is your thing. Something for nearly everyone, but this is not a place to find many bargains.Visited December 2023Traveled with familyWritten December 23, 2023

There are a lot of souvenir shops, clothing stores, restaurants, jewelry stores, and art galleries. We were looking around, not out to buy anything so we had a light lunch and window shopped.Visited February 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten February 9, 2024
- TallahasseeMarkTallahassee, Florida495 contributionsYou Gotta GoLots of mixed vibes here. Must see. We visited it four times! Variety of merchants/restaurants? Yes! Park City prices? Yes! I always like to support local businesses. My father owned a local business and supported us kids. I don’t mind paying a little more to shop/eat local, and some here fit into that mindset. Some did not, but money may not matter to the wealthy. Go. It is a wonderful experience. Splurge a bit. Enjoy the experience every day you are here.Visited July 2024Traveled with friendsWritten July 8, 2024

There’s a lot to like in downtown Park City- shops, food, chair lift, bars and galleries. We were stayed 2 nights and found the area to be very walkable, safe and clean. Silly Sunday closes Main Street to traffic for vendors or sell art, jewelry, food and much more. Overall vibe is laidback and was not overly crowded for a summer weekend.

Staying in Midway, we heard a lot about Main St in Park City. Bars, restaurants, boutiques & more. The Famous Egyptian theater is there so make sure to get a picture. My highlight is a framed Banksy on the side of a building. We unfortunately did not eat on Main st. We grabbed a bite at nearby Fuego which I highly recommend but grab ice cream, regardless of the weather, at Rocky Mountain! It’s beautiful at night there so make sure to visit Main St day and night. We were there on a busy Friday night but easily found parking.

We enjoyed walking and looking in the shops on Main but we had a difficult time finding available parking. As 6 senior citizens, we do not do well walking long distances up and down inclines. We finally found a parking deck that had spaces remaining. The town is very charming with some interesting shops and LOTS of restaurants. Be sure and check reviews of the restaurants before you go. Flanagans was a big disappointment but The Eatery was quite good.

The downtown is a great area to spend an evening or afternoon perusing.
Restaurants were delish and galleries/shops enjoyable.
Summit County has a mask requirement during our visit so we felt very safe.
On Sunday’s, they make the street pedestrian only and it made the experience much better! I hope for small business sake this is considered to accommodate heated/outdoor seating!

So much to see! We probably went into 80% of the stores, and a few we visited multiple times. A lot of historical information to read about and just about every major outdoor sports dealer in the country had a location there. Bars, food, music, and a lot of friendly people. Highly recommend!

We stopped to shop around 9:45 am, and parked. We began to walk the beautiful, downtown streets, ready to spend some money at locally-owned businesses. We found many stores didn’t open until 11:00 am, and some that were closed the day we tried to visit (Tuesday). The shopping experience was disappointing to us, but I must give Park City credit…they have really made their old downtown area beautiful! Sadly, our travels might not bring us back this way again, so I feel like we really missed out

We were able to come into town on a Sunday. Street Festival was a lot of fun. So many great vendors, music and food. Since we had already made dinner reservations we didn't have the street food but everything looked wonderful and prices seemed reasonable for an east coaster!!

Fun little adventure to check out the snow globes with the kids over Christmas break. It was cold so dress warm and wear good walking shoes as they are spread out up and down Main Street. The kids had a good time. The globes sounded a little more magical on their website, map included, but not as impressive as described.

What time do most stores and galleries open in the morning?
Written September 30, 2020
We arrived on main street about 10:10 in the morning and everything appeared to be open. People were sitting and eating on outdoor patios and people were coming out of retail establishments. My guess is probably at 9:00 for stores and 8:00 for restaurants.

Hi, How late are the shops open in Park City during the week after Labor Day?
Thanks!
Written September 2, 2019
The galleries I think close earlier than the restaurants. Galleries close around 6 or 7 pm as far as I recall.

Do they have wheelchair for rental on Main Street?
Written February 16, 2017
I've never seen one. closest I know of would be SLC, they may deliver, but you'd have to call and check. Trip advisor doesn't allow web links in the response (tried to leave the link, but it won't let me), but it's Red Rocks Medical Supply.

We are thinking about taking a 3 family vacation to park city. "Kids" from ages 33 to 9. Are there places to stay nearby so the older kids can go to restaurants and bars without getting in a car and the younger kids can have fun stuff to do in the day.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Jeanne,
Historic Park City is a quick FREE bus ride away from Park City Mountain & Deer Vally Resort or steps away from some great hiking or snowshoeing (depending on the time of year). You can even take the Town Lift to access Park City Mountain Resort. Any of the lodging properties in the Historic Park City area would be great for your family. Take a look at the Historic Park City Utah website (sorry, I can't include a link due to Trip Advisor rules) for a list. Enjoy!
