Itinerary tips

  • 1Make reservations via OpenTable or Resy at least one week in advance for popular spots like HSL or Valter’s Osteria.
  • 2Utilize the 'Free Fare Zone' on the TRAX light rail to travel between blocks without paying for a ticket.
  • 3Budget two hours for your meal to account for the relaxed pace of the city's fine-dining establishments.
  • 4Park at the City Creek Center garage for two hours of free parking within walking distance of most major venues.
  • 5Check for Utah Jazz home games or Broadway shows at the Eccles Theater, as these events significantly increase wait times.
  • 6Bring a valid photo ID if you plan to order alcohol, as Utah laws require scanning for age verification at all bars and most restaurants.
