I went to a Saved by the 90’s concert and it was a lot of fun. The stage and dance areas are nicely laid out to where you don’t have to be crammed on the dance floor like a sardine if you don’t want to. Staff was very friendly.

The space is great. Very very good sound. Not a bad seat in house but definitely get the reserved section for more dancing room. My expectations were exceeded by staff. I cant say enough about how courteous they were. Audrey was my server and she rocked it. Will be back will spend money. They should get a giant pretzel with cheese app :)

This place is a bit hidden. First time in Aspen and you have to take some stairs down a building for access. Definitely ask the locals as I was guided there! Really small but sophisticated bar. They do not serve food! Please come well fed. I went for a concert and had a blast! Staff was super courteous and helpful. We reserved a table and will definitely back to just have drinks

Fantastic, intimate, historic venue in the middle of Aspen. It was fascinating to be in a place where so many influential acts have played. Capacity ranges from 300 to 450 depending on configuration. Check their www to see the greats who have graced this stage. Staff was helpful and made feel welcome. Will return.

I have been to many concert venues in many cities, and Belly Up Aspen stands out as the best. Great atmosphere, access to world-class restaurants for a pre-show dinner, intimate performances. If you’re on the fence, pull the trigger. It’s just amazing.
