Telluride's Madeline Hotel & Residences Announces Summer Events
Madeline Hotel & Residences, Auberge Resorts Collection, Telluride's premiere alpine property, is pleased to share their lineup of new summer programming and events. Traditionally regarded as a winter destination, Madeline Hotel has refined Telluride and the possibilities of summer within this charming mountain town, bringing world class instructors, artists and experiences to the heart of Mountain Village and one of Colorado's most vibrant locales. An outline of the seasonal happenings can be found below.
Scenic Flight Over Arches and Canyonlands National Park: This once-in-a-lifetime adventure invites guests to soar over the marvelous red rocks, valleys and peaks of Utah's National Parks that border Colorado via private aircraft. Afterwards, spend the day exploring a private ranch with a boat excursion or 4x4 tour, followed by a chef-curated meal. Designed for small groups, this experience is one of the most exhilarating yet personalized ways to immerse in some of the world's most remote and storied treasures.
Immersive Intention Setting Dinner with Elise Museles: Kicking off the Telluride Yoga Festival on June 27, Madeline Hotel has teamed up with Elise Museles, certified eating psychologist and nutrition expert, for an evening of intention-setting, education and concluding chocolate ceremony that will empower guests to create healthier relationships with their food, bodies and mind as they embark on the festival weekend.
4th Annual Alpine Cookout: On July 6, Madeline Hotel will host its fourth annual Alpine Cookout, drawing culinary talent from the Four Corners and beyond, including Pitmaster and CEO/owner of Meat Church Chef Matt Pittman, Salt Lake City celebrity Chef Viet Pham, Santa Fe legend Chef Mark Kiffin, and Texas all-star Chef Dean Fearing, who will collaborate with Madeline's Executive Chef Zach Ladwig on a menu that celebrates the spirit of the Southwest. For guests looking for a more intimate experience, the hotel is offering a limited number of spots for guests to venture out with the chefs as they go fly fishing on one of Colorado's award-winning rivers at a private ranch.
Retreat Artist Dinner Series with Ah Haa School for the Arts: Ah Haa School for the Arts is a dynamic, world class creative institution located in the heart of downtown Telluride. For the first time, Ah Haa will join forces with Madeline Hotel beginning July 27 to create a summer culinary series, where Executive Chef Zach Ludwig will partner with visiting artists to create a dinner that is equal parts delectable as visually stunning, taking inspiration from each artist's unique style. Visiting artists include Gordon Studer (renowned for his abstracts), Elin Noble (dyeing, color and juxtaposition), Hollie Chastain (mixed media and illustrator) and David and Shana Levinson (life-size and representational painters).
Blues & Brews Beer Pairing Dinner: One of Telluride's most celebrated festivals returns for its 30th year, which pairs legendary blue grass musicians with famous mountain views and top local and regional beverage makers. On September 12, Madeline Hotel starts the weekend with their Beer Paring Dinner designed to showcase the best brews that will be served all weekend long while giving guests the inside track. Each of the five locally-sourced courses will have a beer pairing that is introduced by brewers and personalities from each participating brewery, giving guests a deep dive into the flavor profiles, practices and each brewer's unique approach.
"We are thrilled to share a lineup of summer programming that truly captures the spirit of Telluride," said Bryan Woody, Regional Vice President, Madeline Hotel & Residences, Auberge Resorts Collection.
