Several restaurants will also be open Thanksgiving Day, with Small Business Saturday rounding out the month as the national holiday for supporting local businesses.

“Our annual Snow Globe Stroll, Thanksgiving, and Small Business Saturday are just a few ways to gather and celebrate this November,” explains Ginger Wicks, Executive Director of the Historic Park City Alliance.

“With more than 200 local businesses to support, there are plenty of opportunities for Park City locals and visitors to show their love in this season of gratitude and thanksgiving.”
