Events

Aspen is home to more than 30 annual events attended by approximately 40,000 people. Events are the face of Aspen to many locals and visitors and demonstrate our environmental values.

 

All events applying for a special event permit are now required by City Council to meet ZGreen Event standards. 

 

Complete the ZGreen Event checklist by clicking the button below and saving and e-mailing it to ZGreen staff. Questions? Contact Ashley Cantrell at 970-429-1798

 

Private events are not required to meet ZGreen standards but may apply for voluntary certification by submitting the same checklist.
