The Vail Valley Is the Ideal Setting for the Holidays...
- The Thanksgiving Holiday -- Take advantage of this quiet time of year in Vail. With the anticipation of and excitement for the coming ski season, there is no shortage of activities for the whole family; however, the casual air of a quiet Vail Vilage lends to a quaint ambience that will soon be lost in the bustle of Winter toursim. Cooler temperatures make evenings by the fire even more enjoyable, while frequent snow storms begin to blanket the valley.
- Christmas Week -- No other place on earth has quite the same charm as Vail does during Christmas. There is more to do than can possibly be fit into a single vacation. This, along with Vail's unparalleled resort, is why thousands of people return to these mountains each year. There is no better way to spend the Christmas holiday with family and friends, and there's no better time to get out and enjoy world class skiing on Vail Mountain.
- New Year's Week -- Bring in the new year at 8,150 feet above sea level. Don't miss the Torch Light Ceremony on Gold Peak, an amazing Firworks Display that seems to last for hours, and the chance to count down to midnight, while mentally preparing for the slopes on New Year's Day.
- Easter Week -- School's out for Spring Break, and there is no better place to go than Vail, Colorado. This is definietly one of the greatest times to visit the Vail Valley. Temperatures are on the rise, which means you'll have sunny days and the best Spring Skiing around.
- July 4th
-- The New Year's Fireworks are amazing, but you can expect at least
tree times the display on the Fourth of July! The towns of Vail,
Avon, and Minturn each schedule a separate event in the days
surrounding our Independence Day. So, you have the opportunity to
celebrate the Fourth over and over again, all in the same year.
Parades, outdoor events and gatherings all add to the exitement of
Summer in Vail.
- Vail is an amazing destination year round...Take full advantage of your next opportunity to visit!
