Aspen Snowmass will once again host the world’s premier winter action sports event, as the X Games returns to Buttermilk Mountain for the 25th consecutive year from January 23–25, 2026. This milestone year cements Aspen’s legacy as the heart of progression, where freeskiing, snowboarding, and snowmobile legends continue to push the limits of what’s possible.
Friday night, Colorado’s own Disco Lines kicks off the weekend fresh off the global success of his smash single “No Broke Boys,” which is currently charting on Spotify’s Top Songs in the World and recently hit #1 on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart. His signature mix of playful energy, crisp production, and hometown roots makes him one of the fastest-rising names in dance music.
Alesso will take the stage on Saturday night, bringing his signature high-energy sound to X Games Aspen 2026. A global leader in dance music, Alesso has made history as the first international recording artist to score two consecutive #1 hits on Billboard Dance Radio and has since launched his own label, BodyHi. In 2025, he fused the worlds of sports and music with a performance alongside GRAMMY-nominated cellist Tina Guo of their remix of “Ascension” at the Esports World Cup Opening Ceremony. Known for continually pushing sonic boundaries, Alesso is an electrifying fit for X Games Aspen 2026.
Additional musical acts will be part of an X Games Music Week at Belly Up Aspen, with a full lineup and tickets to be announced later.

“For 25 years, Aspen’s been where winter sports legends are made and boundaries are limitless,” said Jeremy Bloom, CEO of the X Games. The event pairs world-class athletic performance with culture, live music headlined by global dance icon Alesso and breakout electronic star Disco Lines, and mountain lifestyle, offering fans more than competition—it’s a full-blown celebration of adrenaline and creativity.
New this year, daytime competitions are completely free and open to the public. Fans can get right up close to the world’s best athletes, surrounded by Aspen’s one-of-a-kind winter vibe. Evenings transform Buttermilk into a full-scale ticketed festival experience featuring live finals, headline concerts, art, brand activations, and the all-new X Fest fan zone.
