Aspen Nightlife – The Caribou Club

According to The New York Post, the Caribou 

Club is the absolute best private club in 

America. This is a member’s only private club, 

and the membership fee is quite high – but the 

ambiance is top-notch!


The Caribou Club is located in Aspen, 

Colorado on East Hopkins Avenue. The club 

is open from 6:30pm until 2am every day, and 

you can enjoy dinner and dancing, or lounge in 

the Great Room before a roaring fireplace with 

a fine cigar. The wine cellar houses over 5000 

wines from around the world. 


There is more to The Caribou Club than fine 

dining and dancing, however. When you enter 

the club, you are entering a world of elegance 

that can only be experienced here. The walls 

are covered with 19th century paintings. There 

is a coat room, where your coat will be taken 

from you, and you are made to feel like a very 

welcome houseguest. You can then go to the 

bar, the Great Room, or be seated for dinner 

– the choice is yours.


The Caribou Club has only been open for about 

ten years, but it has become an integral part of 

Aspen nightlife for the rich and famous – and 

even for those who are not famous, nor rich, 

but who can afford to pay the membership 

fees. When you enter the Great Room at The 

Caribou Club, you will probably see faces that 

you know – even if you don’t know these 

famous people on a personal level.


You don’t even have to be in Aspen to enjoy the 

cuisine offered by The Caribou Club. Your 

event can be catered by the club, no matter 

how large or small it is, or where it is located. 

You can have your event catered anywhere 

in the world! Private parties can also be held 

at The Caribou Club.


Again, the cost is fairly high. Lifetime 

membership for a couple is $10,000. Individual 

membership for two people is $3000 for the 

first year, and $1000 for each additional year, 

paid annually. Family membership for up to five 

people costs $4000 per year. A temporary 

membership is available for one week. The cost 

is $500 and covers one couple. However, during 

Holidays and President’s Weekend, the cost is 

$1000. 


As you can see, The Caribou Club is quite 

exclusive – but depending on the type of

 nightlife you enjoy, the cost of membership is 

well worth it – even if you only visit once a year.

Aspen Nightlife – Theatre in the Park

Founded in 1983 by Kent Reed, Theatre in the Park  has become an Aspen tradition that adds to the  delight of Aspen nightlife. Theatre in the Park once  actually was theatre that was performed in a tent in  the park. Now, however, Theatre in the Park has  changed its name to Theatre Aspen, and a new  permanent structure is in development. This will  allow Theatre in the Park to hold year-round  performances, instead of summer-only performances. Contemporary and classical plays are all presented  by the theatre. If you are in Aspen around Christmas  time, make sure that you see the theatre’s  presentation of “Its A Wonderful Life.” As a summer- only venue, sixty shows are performed each year.  Once the company has its permanent structure, we  can expect many more each year. The Theatre Aspen also has many training programs  for adults and children. Currently, performances are  held between June and August. The Theatre in the  Park is located in the Rio Grande Park.

Aspen Nightlife – Syzygy

Syzygy, which is located on East Hyman Avenue in  Aspen, Colorado, has repeatedly won awards for  being one of the best restaurants in this ski town.  Featuring outstanding jazz music and food that is  out of this world, Syzygy is the place to be when it  comes to Aspen nightlife and fine dining. This is an  Aspen landmark that is not to be missed. The chef at Syzygy combines European and Asian  dishes, and presents them in a modern American  way. These combinations are what set the cuisine  at Syzygy apart from the food you find at most  restaurants. Along with this outstanding fare, you  can select wine from a list of over 300 Italian,  American, and French wines. If you aren’t sure  which wine will work with the fine food you have  ordered – simply ask your waiter. They always  seem to know exactly which wine will enhance the  flavor of the food the best. One of the nice touches about the service at  Syzygy’s is that the Chef likes to send gifts to the  table, such as goat cheese, p

Aspen Nightlife – How to Find the Entertainment

 No matter what time of year it is when you visit  Aspen, there is always something going on –  even in the off season. The town is small, but  there are usually several types of entertainment  offered each evening in different parts of the  small town. Generally, you won’t have to search  too hard to find some entertainment – but it is  better to know exactly what is going on all over  town, so you can choose the Aspen nightlife  that best suits your interests. First, call the Chamber of Commerce in Aspen  a few months before your trip if possible. Ask  them what events are planned for the time  period that you will be there. Events are usually  scheduled well in advance, and finding out  about these events well in advance will not only  help you to better make your plans, but it will  also allow you to purchase needed tickets in  advance. Nothing will be more disappointing  than arriving in Aspen and finding out that your  favorite band is in town for a sold out show! Events can come
