Spring skiing in Keystone is about to get a major upgrade. Peaks and Beats is rolling into the resort this March for a weekend-long music experience that perfectly blends high-energy sound with the best of mountain culture. Presented by Toyota, Mountain Dew, and American Express, this is the ultimate "come for the skiing, stay for the music" event.
Whether you're finishing up your final laps of the day or just looking to soak in the mountain vibes from the village, the River Run base area will be the heart of the action with top-tier artists and high-altitude celebrations, happening on March 20 - 22, 2026 at Keystone.

Why You Can’t Miss Peaks and Beats
High-Altitude Après: The festival takes over the River Run Base Area, meaning you can ski right down to the base area and walk over to the music. There’s no better way to transition from the snow to the show.
Spring Vibes: March is prime time for Colorado bluebird days. Think goggle tans, slushy spring snow, and live music in the crisp mountain air after a fun day on the slopes.
Partner Fun: With partners like Toyota and Mountain Dew on-site, expect interactive villages, cool swag, and plenty of places to recharge between sets.
