How Utahns Spend Their Summer Weekends

Here’s how locals really spend their weekends when the temps rise:

‍

Hiking Before Brunch
Trailheads are the place to be early in the morning. Whether it’s Donut Falls, Lake Blanche, or just a neighborhood stroll with mountain views, Utahns take full advantage of our scenic backyard.

Farmers Markets & Food Trucks
From the Downtown SLC Farmers Market to smaller gems in Sugar House and Daybreak, it’s all about fresh produce, cold lemonades, and a taco in hand. Bonus: lots of local makers and live music.

Cooling Off Utah Style
It’s float season, baby. Paddleboarding at Jordanelle, tubing the Provo River, or soaking up sun at Pineview—Utahns know how to stay cool and still get their adventure fix.

Home Projects & Open Houses
Utahns love to tinker, spruce up the yard, and—yep—house hunt. Summer is peak real estate season, and open houses are a favorite weekend activity (just ask my clients 👀).

Community Events Galore
From outdoor concerts to rodeos and small-town parades, there’s always something happening. Locals love their traditions, and summer is packed with them.
