There are so many great places to go after skiing and out after dark in Vail.

Top 10 Apres/Nightlife Scenes:

The following list is completely subjective based on the personal experiences of the Vail Marketing Department staff.

Apres:

1. Garfinkles at the base of the Gondola in LionsHead - A great place for sunny days with a huge deck. Also, tons
   of TV's to watch all your sporting events on after a day of skiing.
2. Los Amigos at the base of the Vista Bahn in Vail Village - a great place for sunny days to sit and watch skiers make
   their way down Pepi's face. Killer margarita's.
3. Kaltenburg at the base of the Gondola in LionsHead - A true German beer hall with BIG German beer, pretzels and music.
4. Atop Eagle's Nest at the Blue Moon Bar - Don't head down the mountain without grabbing a Blue Moon beer and
   enjoying the views and live music atop Vail Mountain. You can even take the Gondola down if it gets too late to ski down.
5. Red Lion in Vail Village - A staple in Vail since the beginning. Great live music where you can sing along.
6. Vendetta's in Vail Village - You'll find Vail Ski Patrol here any day of the week. Grab a slice of pizza and a beer and you'll
   feel like a local in no time.
7. Pepi's in Vail Village - The place to be seen and people watch off the deck. Live music and European flair. Rod plays a lot of
   Buffett and other songs you will know.
8. The Club in Vail Village - "The Good Times Guy." Ask Fletch about this place. A wild time with live music where the entire
   audience gets involved - whether you want to or now.
