aspen nightlife – harris concert hal
There is always something going on in Aspen,
Colorado and the Aspen nightlife is very active.
You can find a wide variety of things to do – but
if you want a little culture, you should definitely
find out what events are planned at the Harris
Concert Hall.
At the Harris Concert Hall, you will find
everything from Piano Recitals to Rock-n-Roll
Concerts. Events are planned well in advance,
so you should be able to find out what concerts
and events are scheduled to coincide with your
Aspen vacation.
The Harris Concert Hall is located in the West
end of Aspen, in a quaint residential
neighborhood. Due to parking and traffic
problems, you should strongly consider
walking to the concert hall. It is a short ten
minute walk from the downtown area. Other
transportation options include biking or taking
the bus. When there are events at the concert,
it is very difficult to find parking.
The Aspen Music Festival and School were
founded in 1949 by Walter and Elizabeth
Paepcke from Chicago. Many music
professionals train here and all of the school
and festival performances take place in the
Harris Concert Hall, which seats over 2000
people.
You should definitely try to visit Aspen during
the Music Festival. This takes place over a nine
week period in the summer, and there are
usually more than 200 planned events. People
from all over the world come to the Aspen
Music Festival, so be sure that you make your
plans and reservations early!
Another exciting event that takes place at the
Harris Concert Hall is the Aspen Film Festival.
This festival takes place three times each year.
The Aspen Shortsfest is held in the Spring. The
Aspen Filmfest is held during the Fall, and the
Aspen Academy Screenings are held during the
Winter. Again, people come from all over the
world for these events, so make your plans
early.
The Harris Concert Hall is full of history, even
though the newest section of it wasn’t built
until recently. This is a major part of Aspen’s
history and culture, and you should try to attend
at least one event at the Harris Concert Hall
while you are in Aspen. Most events take place
in the evening; however there are also events
that take place during the day. You can check
with your lodge or hotel to find out what events
are planned at the Concert Hall each day. Also
inquire about the need to purchase advance
tickets for specific events.
