Aspen Gay Ski Week 2021 (CO)

Info

Aspen Gay Ski Week (AGSW) is the oldest annual, week-long gay ski event in the nation. A model for other gay ski weeks, AGSW offers a unique holiday experience in the scenic and historic mountain town of Aspen, Colorado. AGSW visitors enjoy four mountains of varied skiing and snowboarding terrain, as well as cross-country skiing, snowshoe and winter hiking trails in the Elk Mountains of Colorado.

Will Aspen Gay Ski Week Still happen in January 2021?
Yes, but more of an “AGSW 2021 LITE” version. After monitoring the current state of COVID-19, we have decided to alter our programming for Aspen Gay Ski Week 2021. This decision has not come without much thought and consideration. The safety of our patrons and staff is very important to us. At this time, our larger gatherings such as the Pool Party, Belly Up Comedy Night and Dance Party, and Top of the Mountain Dance Party will take a break or take a new virtual form for 2021. As gathering guidelines continue to change, we will too. Plans to come back better than ever for 2022 (our 45th Anniversary) are also in the works.
What do you mean by “AGSW 2021 LITE”?
All of our larger flagship gatherings including Belly Up Comedy and Dance Night, Top of The Mountain Dance Party, Drag Queen Bingo at a Bar, and Pool Party will take a break for 2021.
While our flagship gatherings will pause for 2021, hotels, ski and snowboarding equipment rentals, and lift tickets are all on sale through our website which will provide the best pricing and also help AspenOUT raise funds to continue its year-round philanthropic work in the LGBTQ+ Community.
We continue to see longtime AGSW ski and snowboarding attendees book accommodations through GaySkiWeek.com. Attendees can enjoy all the outdoor snow sport activities Aspen has to offer during the week of AGSW 2021.
Virtual events are in planning stages for those who are coming to Aspen during January 17-24, 2021, and also for those who are not coming. Virtual events might include Drag Queen Bingo, Piano Showtunes, Virtual Happy Hours, and the possibility of a Virtual Downhill Contest.
