Vail Spring/Summer Calendar of Events

Vail Spring/Summer Calendar of Events

It’s time to get out, and enjoy live music and performances again, all events in the magnificent surroundings of the Rocky Mountains.

Vail is gearing up for summer with a full slate of concerts and live events. These are all in-person activities.

The public will once again have the opportunity to attend music and dance performances at the wonderful Vail venues including the Gerald Ford Amphitheater, Vilar Performing Arts Center, the Edwards Interfaith Chapel and the Chapel at Beaver Creek. Featured orchestras this year are the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, Dallas Symphony Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra and the New York Philharmonic.

In addition, the Farmers’ Market returns as does the wildly popular GoPro Mountain Games, Vail Craft Beer Classic and the Vail Arts Festival.

The Free Concert Series is once again on board where you can enjoy the melodies of the talented Bravo Vail musicians for free. And don’t forget to check out the special private performances and workshops.

These are just some of the offerings in Vail this summer. Combined with the spectacular hiking, biking, water sports and just chilling by the pool, there is no better place than Vail to spend a week or a weekend this summer. Make sure to confirm dates and times via the respective websites.
