About

The Vail Village Welcome Center is the town's staffed information desk on the top level of the Vail Village parking garage, the first stop for many visitors who arrive by car or bus. The staff give event, activity, dining, shopping and lodging advice from a local point of view, and it is open every day of the year.

It is most useful early in a trip: to pick up a paper map, see what concerts and festivals are on that week, or sort out how the buses and parking work before you commit to a plan. Travelers who like to arrive with a plan can email the welcome centers with questions before the trip.

What you will find inside

Beyond the desk there are clean restrooms, seating, vending machines nearby and workstations for checking email. Panels and displays cover Vail's history, wildlife, water conservation and sustainability, and a calendar lays out upcoming concerts, festivals and local programs. Colorado and Vail maps are kept stocked; just ask.

Public art

Look up above the desk for Red Eddy, a suspended piece by Paul Vexler from the Town of Vail's public art collection.

Parking and the Lionshead Welcome Center

The center sits beside the Vail Village parking structure, so a short stop is easy; the first hour of parking is free, and rates change by season (see the FAQ). Its sister desk, the Lionshead Welcome Center, is on the lower level of the Lionshead parking garage at 395 E. Lionshead Circle, with day-use lockers for skis and layers. From here, Vail Village and Gondola One are a short walk away.
