   Visit Aurora, Colorado

   Apr 2017 — Present · Aurora, CO, US

   As Aurora’s convention and visitor’s bureau, Visit Aurora’s mission is grounded in showcasing Aurora as a premier destination for meetings, business, and leisure travel. Visit Aurora represents more than 75 hotel properties with guestrooms and more than 1 million square feet of meeting space, including Colorado’s largest resort, Gaylord Rockies Resort & Convention Center.Explore the beauty of Colorado’s outdoors at one of the parks, trails, golf courses, or gorgeous reservoirs—not to mention the thousands of acres of open space. Spend an afternoon at Cherry Creek Reservoir hiking the trails, trying stand-up paddleboarding, or riding horses off into the mountain sunset. Discover Aurora’s cultural art district, visit galleries, or stop by the Colfax Canvas Murals and enjoy a self-guided audio tour. Shop around at locally-owned boutiques and national brands all in one. Or visit Colorado’s largest indoor marketplace, Stanley Marketplace for Aurora-based shopping, dinner, and drinks. Set out early for a morning of site-seeing and searching for historical sites or bring the kids along and view native wildlife. Whatever you choose, enjoy!
