Tired of the same old “dinner and a movie” date? There are so many fun things to do across northern Utah, and here are 12 unique date night ideas to treat your significant other with a memorable time!
1. Watch a local sports game
Here in Utah, we’ve got a ton of opportunities to watch our great, local teams. From Real Salt Lake and the Real Monarchs to the Utah Grizzlies in Salt Lake, or college teams like the Aggies and the Southern Utah Thunderbirds, there are plenty of sports to watch throughout the year.
2. Listen to live music
Have you been to the Club at 50 West? Not only do they book some of the hottest names in the industry, but they’ve got a killer menu and chill atmosphere to make your date night memorable.
3. Take sailing lessons
Uh, sailing? In Utah? Yeah, you read that right. Sailing lessons on Utah Lake for all skill levels are offered by the Bonneville School of Sailing.
4. Have a spa day at Snowbird
The Cliff Spa at Snowbird includes a yoga studio, treatment rooms, fitness center, hot tub, salon and a rooftop pool with spectacular views.
5. Go climbing
Maybe you’re not an experienced climber, so if you and your significant other would like to try indoor climbing, there are a bunch of awesome climbing gyms in Utah to test the waters.
6. Try a pottery class
Have you ever wanted to take up a new hobby? Red Kiln Pottery Gallery and Studio holds pottery classes, which are a great experience and opportunity to create lasting memories.
7. Take a cooking class
Channel your inner chef with cooking classes at your neighborhood Harmons. With their in-store kitchen and knowledgeable chefs, you can learn how to roll sushi or cook the perfect steak.
8. Walk a pair of puppies
Visit the animal shelter and ask if you can walk two adorable puppies. The staff may appreciate the offer (if you promise to take care of the pups), the dogs will love it, and your date will definitely think it’s the most unique date idea ever.
9. Learn how to Salsa dance
Salsa Bachata is a beautiful and energetic dance that’s fun to do, and Salsa In Utah holds group or private Salsa and Argentine Tango lessons at their dance studio.
10. Play disc golf
Disc golf (frisbee golf) is a legit sport, and is lots of fun. Check out the course at Rock Canyon Park in Provo for a great time.
11. Go “skydiving” in Ogden
iFly is an indoor skydiving tunnel that’s loads of fun, no matter your skill level with adrenaline sports.
12. Try geocaching
Geocaching is best done after watching National Treasure. Use your GPS and find a set of coordinates to locate the treasure!
