In Town for Future Forum? Fun Things to do in SLC

The International Economic Development Council (IEDC) will hold its 2019 Economic Future Forum from June 9-11th at City Creek Marriott. This year’s theme, “Pioneers in a New Global Market” will cover a lot of ground – from workforce development to effective economic development programs to projections on the current U.S. economy. We’re excited to host its members and look forward to another great conference!

“On behalf of Salt Lake City’s Department of Economic Development and business owners, I’d like to welcome the International Economic Development Council and all attendees of the 2019 IEDC Economic Future Forum to our amazing City,” says Director Lara Fritts. “You will love the sights and scenes of Salt Lake City and the entire State. Here are some of my favorite things to do and fun things happening over the next four days:”

Anytime

Walk over to Temple Square

Uber/Lyft/Scooter up to the State Capitol, Hogle Zoo or the Natural History Museum of Utah (all in the City)

Want to get out and see the beauty of Utah – here are some ideas.

Might be a little pricey but take a Uber/Lyft to Park City and check out the Olympic park – and if you’re feeling brave take a lap in the bobsled: https://www.visitparkcity.com/things-to-do/utah-olympic-park/

A day car rental may be the way to go or get a group and do car service to High West Distillery: https://www.highwest.com/distillery.php
