With the purchase of a 3-Day pass JAS encourages visitors to not just attend the festival itself, but spend time enjoying all of the activities that a weekend in beautiful Aspen/Snowmass has to offer.  In 2012 the "72 Hottest Hours of the Summer," as marketed by JAS, saw record numbers of destination attendees who enjoyed world-class music into the spectacular late summer nights, after days largely spent enjoying a myriad of Rocky Mountain activities including hiking, biking, rafting, golfing and much more.
