Imagine hosting your event surrounded by the breathtaking San Juan Mountains, with historic streets, world-class outdoor activities, and vibrant culture right at your doorstep. When planning a group tour, Durango combines natural beauty with a rich cultural heritage to make your trip truly unforgettable.
From September’s Durango Arts Month to December’s festive Holiday Station, Durango’s vibrant events keep the town buzzing throughout the year. For cycling enthusiasts, Spoketober celebrates all things bike-related in October, while Restaurant Week in March tempts food lovers with exclusive local menus. For something unique, the long-standing Durango Cowboy Poetry Gathering or Animas River Days in June offer groups a chance to connect with the local culture.
While Durango’s events draw plenty of visitors, planning around these times is vital to ensuring availability for your group. Avoiding peak event seasons like the summer festivals can help you secure better accommodations and avoid crowds.
Historic charm meets modern convenience: Step into Durango’s storied past with venues in our historic downtown, where you’ll find reminders of our Native American, mining, and railroad roots. Pair this with modern amenities to offer your attendees a unique blend of old and new.
Affordable and accessible: Durango offers high-end experiences without the high price tag. With easy access by car, plane, or train, planning your event is simple and cost-effective.
Proximity to national treasures: Just a short drive from Mesa Verde National Park, Colorado’s only UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, your group can explore some of the most iconic landscapes in the American West.
