Tourism and cultural events in Aspen

Overview

Aspen continues to maintain its status as a year-round destination through various cultural, environmental, and luxury tourism events.

In late summer, the town hosted the annual Stars Above event at the top of Ajax. This program, a partnership between Aspen Snowmass and the Aspen Center for Environmental Studies, featured activities such as sunset yoga and guided telescope stations timed to the Perseid meteor shower. The event emphasized the importance of dark-sky preservation.

As the season progresses, the focus shifts toward luxury hospitality and fashion. Upcoming events include Aspen Fashion Week Fall 2026, which highlights the intersection of style and mountain culture. Additionally, local partnerships such as the one between Hotel Jerome, Moncler Grenoble, and the Aspen Center for Environmental Studies are offering guided treks in the Castle Creek valley to connect guests with the natural history of the Elk Mountain Range.
