Step into a new era of après-ski style. Bemelmans Bar, a New York institution within The Carlyle, A Rosewood Hotel is partnering with leading luxury digital platform MyTheresa to celebrate the art of entertaining in the heart of downtown Aspen.
From February 14 to March 2, 2025, we invite you to experience a one-of-a-kind interpretation of the legendary Bemelmans Bar featuring signature martinis, live entertainment and MyTheresa’s edit of extraordinary style.
No visit to Bemelmans is complete without savoring its iconic martini. Served by our signature red-jacketed bartenders, each cocktail is a masterpiece crafted with precision and flair. Whether you prefer a classic dry martini or one of our bespoke creations inspired by famous patrons of the original bar, every sip promises to be as memorable as the surroundings.
Pair your martini with impeccable service, and you have the perfect recipe for an unparalleled Aspen experience.
The walls of our Aspen pop-up come alive with a captivating mural by celebrated artist Xavier Donnelly. Drawing inspiration from Ludwig Bemelmans’ original whimsical illustrations from his beloved Madeline series of books, this specially commissioned piece weaves the enchanting story of Aspen’s winter wonderland through playful alpine vignettes. The artwork is as much of a centerpiece as the cocktails served, inviting guests to immerse themselves in a setting unlike any other.
Our dedication to elegance extends to every note played. On our opening night, Emmy Award-winning composer and pianist Earl Rose will transport guests to another era by performing classics from the American Songbook. Having captivated audiences at Bemelmans Bar in New York for over three decades, Earl Rose’s repertoire - played on a Steinway piano - brings a timeless charm to this Aspen debut.
Beyond the opening night, revel in live performances by local Aspen musicians, continuing the legacy of delightful piano tunes that define the essence of Bemelmans.
