Organizers of Park City’s St. Regis concert series are scrambling for a new venue

The Park City Institute is seeking an outdoor venue for the St. Regis Big Stars Bright Nights concert series, and officials go before a Park City government committee Wednesday to look at three city-managed locations.

This year’s series “is going to be a series of nine pop-up concerts,” said Teri Orr, the institute’s executive director.

Orr said she and her staff were told in mid-December by Deer Valley, just acquired by Colorado-based Alterra Mountain Co., that the institute’s contract to use the Snow Park Outdoor Amphitheater would not be renewed.

Emily Summers, a spokeswoman for Deer Valley, said the resort will produce its own concert series at the 5,000-seat venue.
