"It really doesn’t get any better than Aspen," Dan Sherman, chief marketing officer of Ski.com, shared with Travel + Leisure. "One of my favorite things to do in Aspen over the holidays is just walk around. The mall is full of lights in every nook and cranny, and the vibe is as festive as it gets." As Sherman explained, the town also puts on plenty of concerts and on-mountain celebrations like the torchlight parade, multiple tree-lighting ceremonies, and perhaps best of all, "great snow." There's also the annual 12 Days of Aspen celebration, so be sure to check the events calendar before your visit." - Stacey Leasca Stacey Leasca Stacey Leasca is an award-winning journalist and co-founder of Be a Travel Writer, an online course for the next generation of travel journalists.
