  • Holiday shows at the VPAC a time to make memories, start traditions

Variety of programming coming to Beaver Creek for three weeks starting mid-December

Beaver Creek, Colo., Nov. 29, 2021 — The holidays are more than just a season at the Vilar Performing Arts Center – they’re a feeling. With family programming for all to enjoy Dec. 17-Jan. 7, that feeling is one of warmth, love and family – all coming together to enjoy the performing arts in the world-class venue at Beaver Creek during the most magical time of the year.

The VPAC’s holiday lineup includes eight shows over three weeks starting in mid-December and features classic songs of the season, magic shows, Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” and more to bring the family together during the holidays. The lobby will also once again bring in a pinefur 20-foot tall holiday tree to bring the magic, light and joy of the holiday right inside the theater.

Since the holidays in the Vail Valley are a time to come together, make new memories and maybe even start a new tradition, the Vilar Performing Arts Center is excited to welcome world-class entertainment for all to enjoy.

After a day on the slopes, the VPAC – located under the ice rink in Beaver Creek Village – awaits to keep the entertainment going during the holidays. With a giant, two-story festive holiday tree in the VPAC lobby, there’s also photo opportunities for those holiday cards going out this year – or just for Instagram.

During the holidays in Beaver Creek, get ready to experience magical moments, good tidings, cheer and great music. The 2021 Holiday series includes shows for the whole family, allowing audiences to spend time with loved ones while enjoying some uplifting and warm-hearted entertainment.
