PARK CITY, Utah — The Utah Olympic Legacy Foundation will host its annual Anti-Gala fundraiser at the base of the nordic ski hills on Thursday, Aug. 7, from 6:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.

“Ditch the formal wear and head down to the Anti-Gala which returns this year with even more activities and unbridled fun,” the UOP wrote in a statement.

The informal event promises activities, firepits, food and drinks for attendees. Sponsorships and fire pits for the 2025 event are sold out, though single tickets remain available.

The fundraiser supports the Utah Olympic Legacy Foundation’s Healthy Communities and Scholarship initiatives, which provide winter sports opportunities for underrepresented Utah children. Proceeds from the event help expand access to winter sports programs across the state.

Attendees will have unlimited access to extreme tubing, the extreme zip line and alpine slide activities. Local food trucks will provide dining options, while Top Shelf, Tito’s Handmade Vodka and Gautreau Family Estates Wine will offer specialty cocktails throughout the evening.

DJ Cam will provide music for dancing, and silent auctions will feature unique prizes and experiences for bidders. The evening will also include a new drone light show performed against the backdrop of the nordic ski jumps.

Organizers emphasize the casual dress code for the outdoor event and recommend attendees wear closed-toe shoes. The Anti-Gala represents a departure from traditional formal fundraising events, offering an outdoor adventure experience while supporting youth athletics programs.
