Super Bowl XLVIII (we don’t even know what number that is) is a week from today! Go Broncos!

Do you know where you’ll be watching the Big Game? If you’ll be in town on Sunday, Feb. 2 and are looking for a place to hang with fellow fans, here are some Super Bowl parties in Durango where you can cheer on the Broncos — or the Seahawks, if you’re willing to take that risk in Southwest Colorado. (Legal disclaimer: We do not recommend cheering on the Seahawks in Southwest Colorado.)

Durango Mountain Resort Super Bowl Party

Snowdown Super Bowl Party

What better way to wrap up another crazy week of Snowdown activities than with a Snowdown Super Bowl party? Watch the Broncos win, ahem, watch the game and toss back a drink with your family and friends. The shindig kicks off 3:30 p.m. Sunday at Bent Urban Sports Bar, 42 County Road 250, Suite #400, at the Ptarmigan Center in Durango. Don your favorite sports gear, paint your face and put on your best “tailgating attitude” for the Snowdown Super Bowl party because there will be prizes for the Best Super Bowl celebration gear. The event is free.
