What’s Happening in Salt Lake: Happy Holidays!

Tis’ the season! With less than a week away until Christmas Day, the lights, festivities, and holiday cheer in Salt Lake is in full swing. With most of our shopping (hopefully) done, now is the perfect time to take a step back, put down the shopping bags and enjoy the last few moments of the holiday season with family and friends.

Whether you’re looking for a fun family outing or a night out with friends, Salt Lake is bubbling with options and offers something for everyone. From shopping and dining, to off-Broadway performances and some of the best Christmas lights in the country, get out and enjoy what’s happening in Salt Lake!

Christmas Lights at Temple Square

Visit Temple Square to see the Christmas lights every night at dusk for the entire holiday season through January 2, 2018. During the month of December there are free performances in six different venues on Temple Square, and of course the famous Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert attracts visitors from all over the world. Enjoy a favorite Utah tradition for locals and visitors for the past 50 years!

Christmas in Color

Utah’s biggest, brightest holiday drive-through light show is held at Salt Lake County Equestrian Park in South Jordan. Christmas in Color lights up the venue with a mile-long, drive-through light show that sharply synchronizes the choreography of 1.5 million LED lights with upbeat holiday music. Cozy up in your jammies, grab some hot cocoa and enjoy the sights of the season in the warmth of your car!

The Nutcracker at Ballet West

Another favorite Salt Lake tradition, The Nutcracker is a holiday season must! This season marks the brand new 2017 BalletWest premiere – fresh sets, dazzling special effects and new costumes meet the much celebrated choreography and music! Matinee and evening performances run December 2nd through the 30th.

City Creek Center

Don’t miss the holiday attractions at City Creek Center! You will find Santa in his lantern cottage near the Food Court, December 17th-23rd. Try the virtual line so you can shop and dine instead of waiting! Also, don’t miss the choreographed Fountain Show at the top of every hour and feature shows with holiday songs at 7 PM and 9 PM near Nordstrom.

ZooLights at Hogle Zoo

ZooLights! will be brighter and more sparkling than ever as this festive, family-fun light event returns for its 11th anniversary year. Over 200 lighted animal and holiday-themed displays will glisten in the December night as you make your way throughout Zoo grounds. Enjoy dinner in the Beastro, warm up with a cup of hot chocolate or check out the vast array of tasty treats! Runs through New Year’s Eve (closed on Christmas Day).

Grand America Holiday Window Stroll

This ‘grand’ winter holiday winter stroll showcases 14 unique, whimsical displays located at The Grand America. Each hand-crafted window display captures the imagination and the joy of the holiday season in a scavenger-hunt. Attendees will receive a map to guide their explorations, as well as a seasonal cookie at the end of the stroll. Fun fact: 18 pounds of glitter was applied by hand to create 350 whimsical pieces!

Downtown Alliance Jingle Bus

All aboard the Downtown Jingle Bus! Beginning Friday, November 24th through December 30th, downtown holiday season visitors can hop-on and off the holiday themed ride circling The Gateway, Temple Square, City Creek Center Gallivan Plaza & Capitol Theatre. Jingle Bus runs from 5 – 10 PM, 7 days a week (except Christmas Day) free of charge.

The Last Hurrah at The Gateway

Replacing Eve as Salt Lake’s premier New Year’s event, The Last Hurrah at The Gateway will celebrate the New Year with everything from Main Stage music acts, a Speakeasy Lounge, and full, interactive Gameroom. Champagne will even be served throughout the event so you can make your New Year’s toasts! Thanks to community sponsors, The Last Hurrah is a free event for all ages.

All of us at Novation Title want to thank you for a wonderful year in business and wish you a happy and healthy holiday season. Thanks for allowing us to be a part of your lives, big or small!

Hey there, future homeowner! So, you're diving into the wild world of real estate, huh? Exciting times ahead! 🏡 But hold up – before you pop the champagne, let's talk about something crucial: choosing your title company. Now, who gets to decide on this? Spoiler alert: it's you! Sure, your real estate agent or lender might throw a few suggestions your way, but ultimately, the choice is yours. So, let's make it count! First things first, do some snooping around. Check out different title companies online, ask your pals for recommendations, and see what vibes with you. You want someone reliable, experienced, and who's got your back, no matter what. Oh, and don't be shy – ask questions! Seriously, grill them like you're on a first date. How long have they been in the game? What's their process like? And most importantly, can they handle your quirks and concerns like a champ? Remember, this isn't just about paperwork – it's about peace of mind. Your home sweet home is a big deal, so choose a title company that feels like the perfect fit. Trust me, it'll make all the difference when it's time to pop those keys in the door!

February is not just about Valentine's Day chocolates and romantic gestures; it's also about spreading love and kindness to those who need it most. And boy, did we have an amazing time doing just that with our February Giveback! This month, we teamed up with the incredible For The Kids nonprofit to make a difference in the lives of children in our community. And let us tell you, it was a heartwarming experience from start to finish. First things first, our team rolled up their sleeves and dove straight into action. We spent a day volunteering, packing a whopping 100 meals to be delivered to those in need. The joy of knowing that these meals would bring smiles to the faces of children warmed our hearts in ways we can't even describe. But we didn't stop there! Oh no, we were just getting started. With our sleeves still rolled up and our spirits soaring, our very own Joe packed the truck with all those delicious deliveries for that Friday. The excitement was palpable as we imagined the happiness these meals would bring to families across our community. And guess what? Our amazing supporters rallied behind us in full force! Through their generosity, we collected over 100 additional items to donate to For The Kids. From canned goods to pantry staples, every single donation meant the world to us and to those we're helping. As we reflect on our February Giveback journey, we can't help but feel overwhelmingly grateful. Grateful for the opportunity to make a difference. Grateful for the support of our community. And most of all, grateful for the chance to spread love in every way we can. It's worth mentioning that our dedication to For The Kids goes way back – we supported their mission back in 2021, and we're committed to continuing this beautiful partnership for years to come. To everyone who volunteered, donated, or simply cheered us on from the sidelines – thank you. Thank you for believing in the power of kindness. Thank you for joining us on this incredible journey. Together, we're making the world a brighter, happier place, one meal and one smile at a time.
