Thursday Night Lights. On Thursday evenings, a group of strong skiers and riders descends the mountain by light, followed by fireworks over the village. It turns an ordinary weeknight in Beaver Creek into a small celebration.

Getting there

Flying in for it? A private SUV or executive van takes you from the airport to your door in Vail, with your flight tracked and your bags handled.
