As Aspen and Snowmass gear up for another unforgettable season, there’s a renewed buzz around town, from world-class openings to thoughtfully reimagined cultural and culinary landmarks. Whether you’re visiting for a ski week, a summer concert, or a winter retreat, these new additions promise to elevate the mountain experience in every way.
Here’s a look at what’s coming soon to the Roaring Fork Valley.
Paul JAS Center
Set to open in December 2025, the Paul JAS Center will bring a year-round pulse of live music and creative programming to downtown Aspen. Located above the historic Red Onion, this long-awaited permanent home for Jazz Aspen Snowmass will feature intimate performances, education initiatives, and community gatherings, a cultural cornerstone in the making.
Chanel Boutique
This winter, Aspen welcomes a new seasonal Chanel boutique across from Hermès, a sleek alpine outpost offering the maison’s latest ready-to-wear, handbags, accessories, and fine jewelry. Blending Parisian elegance with mountain sophistication, the boutique adds another layer of glamour to Aspen’s ever-growing luxury retail scene.
Foundrae Jewelry
Known for its meaningful, heirloom-quality pieces and symbolic designs, Foundrae is preparing to make its Aspen debut before 2026. While details remain under wraps, the brand’s Instagram has hinted at what’s to come, and collectors are already taking note. Expect bold craftsmanship and timeless artistry rooted in personal storytelling.
The Hot Dogger | Snowmass
Opening for the 2025–2026 winter season, The Hot Dogger is a new gourmet hot-dog stand at the Spider Sabich Picnic Area in Snowmass. A collaboration between Snowmass Resort and Sumo Dog, the concept pays tribute to legendary ski racer Vladimir “Spider” Sabich, serving elevated comfort food in a spot that celebrates both local flavor and mountain heritage.
White Elephant Aspen
Scheduled to open in Fall 2025, White Elephant Aspen will bring 54 guest rooms, chalet-style suites, and art-driven interiors to the heart of downtown. The boutique hotel aims to blend timeless design with contemporary luxury, offering an intimate yet elevated lodging experience. With curated artwork, mountain-modern architecture, and a refined après-ski vibe, it’s set to become a new Aspen icon.
