‘LONGSTANDING TRADITION’

For more than 25 years, the Vail Valley Foundation, with help from its generous sponsors, has played host to one of Vail’s greatest summer traditions for locals and guests alike, hosting free rock, reggae, bluegrass, hip-hop and more at the Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater on Tuesday nights.

“We’re thrilled to join forces with Crazy Mountain Brewing Co. for our Hot Summer Nights free concert series this year,” said Michael Imhof, senior vice president of sales and development for the Vail Valley Foundation. “Just as Hot Summer Nights is a longstanding tradition in this valley, so is Crazy Mountain, as our community’s first production brewery. The new ideas for how to make our series even better have us excited for this partnership, and we can’t wait for the kick-off of summer. We hope to see you all at the amphitheater starting June 9 for our series.”
