Aspen Valley Polo Club hosted its most dazzling Twilight Tuesday Polo yet on August 5, drawing the largest crowd in the event’s history to its Beach Club fieldside venue. Guests gathered for a lively cocktail hour with Entourage Wine and Everybody Water before the evening opened on a patriotic note with the National Anthem.
The scene—curated by polo champions and hosts Marc and Melissa Ganzi—featured Arhaus-styled sandy lounges, wooden walkways to a sleek Airstream Bar, wood-fired pies from Dustinos Pizza Strada, and two luxe cold plunges by Crystal River Spas, complete with floating duckies. The match delivered high-energy play from top international athletes, set against Aspen’s alpine backdrop.
As the sun dipped behind the mountains, a laser show lit up the night with the Colorado and American flags, a soaring polo ball, a magic carpet, and a 3D rocket bursting in air. Notables in attendance included Donna Brittingham, Elliot and Donna Slade, Ali Margo, Kiki Raj and son Gray, and Maureen Stapleton with guests from New York and London. The evening cemented Twilight Tuesday as Aspen’s must-attend summer spectacle. aspenvalleypoloclub.com
