them what events are planned for the time



period that you will be there. Events are usually



scheduled well in advance, and finding out



about these events well in advance will not only



help you to better make your plans, but it will



also allow you to purchase needed tickets in



advance. Nothing will be more disappointing



than arriving in Aspen and finding out that your



favorite band is in town for a sold out show!





Events can come up at the last minute as well.



Upon your arrival to your lodge or hotel, ask the



concierge about events that will be taking place



during your stay. If you have already contacted



the Chamber of Commerce, you will know most



of what is going on around town – but there may



be a few surprises in store for you.





Don’t forget to check with the Chamber of



Commerce offices in nearby towns and villages!



Snowmass is a village that almost seems to



be a part of Aspen – but it isn’t. Contact the



Snowmass town hall to find out what events



are scheduled in the village during your visit.





Have a plan before you arrive in Aspen. Use



Internet resources, as well as the information



that you learn from the various Chambers of



Commerce and your lodge to plan your daytime



and night time activities while you will be in



Aspen. Again, there is always something to do



in Aspen, and if you don’t plan ahead, you will



waste a lot of time trying to decide what you



want to do.





While you want to go in with a plan, leave a



day or two open – with no plans. Use these



days for shopping expeditions or simply take a



quiet walk through the quiet Victorian



neighborhoods. Go to a restaurant that isn’t in



your plans, or spend some time in the Great



Room at your lodge. There is always



something to do…but sometimes, it is nice to



have nothing to do as well!
