Dancing · Aspen, CO

About

Near E Durant Ave, this small venue punches above its weight as Aspen's best entertainment space. It brings excellent live music to town and transforms into a high-energy dance club on select nights, especially during Ski Week when the drag shows come out.

The crowd is a friendly mix of gay and straight, all here for the show. It's temporarily closed, but locals keep an eye out for its return. For now, nearby spots like J-Bar offer a different vibe while you wait.
