It’s official.
Salt Lake City and the State of Utah have been selected by the International Olympic Committee to host the 2034 Winter Olympics
More than two decades after the 2002 Games, Utah is officially back on the global stage — and this time, with even greater infrastructure, experience, and international credibility.
For Park City and the Wasatch Back, this isn’t just symbolic. It’s strategic.
What This Means for Park City Real Estate
Utah was selected largely because of its existing venues, operational readiness, and long-standing winter sports culture
Translation?
We’re not building hype — we’re building on proven performance.
For luxury real estate in Park City, especially in ski-in/ski-out communities like The Colony and Deer Valley, global exposure matters. The Olympics bring:
-
International visibility
-
Infrastructure investment
-
Long-term tourism lift
-
Increased global buyer awareness
-
Renewed confidence in Utah as a premier winter destination
Major sporting events historically create a ripple effect that extends well beyond the event itself. And with a decade runway before 2034, we’re entering a sustained period of attention — not a short spike.
Officially “On the Map”
Park City has always known what it is:
World-class skiing.
Serious terrain.
Refined mountain living.
Now the rest of the world has another reminder.
Being selected again signals stability, trust, and global recognition — all qualities that matter at the top of the real estate market.
For buyers considering long-term mountain investments, timing isn’t just about seasonality. It’s about trajectory.
And Utah’s trajectory just became very clear.
