Beaver Run Resort & Conference Center: the exhibitor's guide
The largest conference facility under one roof in Breckenridge, more than 40,000 square feet across 23 meeting rooms, and a ski-in, ski-out setting that makes it a genuinely different kind of meeting venue. What exhibitors need to know in the high country.
Why this page exists
Beaver Run is a genuinely different kind of meeting venue: a ski-in, ski-out resort in Breckenridge with more than 40,000 square feet of renovated conference space, the largest facility of its kind under one roof in town. For exhibitors, that mountain-town setting is the whole draw, but it also means longer freight routes, altitude to plan around, and a much smaller local labor pool than a Denver-area venue. This guide covers the meeting space, Colorado's labor rules, drayage, and getting freight up into the high country.
The building
The meeting space
| Space | What it is | Typical shows | Booth planning note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Conference space | 40,000+ sq ft across 23 flexible meeting rooms, serving groups from 10 to 1,000. | Corporate retreats, association meetings, incentive events | Confirm freight elevator access; this is a ski-resort building, not a purpose-built exhibit hall. |

The labor map
Who sets up my booth?
Colorado's Labor Peace Act framework applies; confirm hand-carry and self-install allowances with the show's official decorator. Mountain-town venues often have a smaller local labor pool than Denver, so book services further in advance.
No right-to-work law; confirm with the decorator
Rules vary by show; Purple confirms current terms before your build.

Logistics
Hotels, transit, crew logistics

- On-site: guest rooms are part of the resort itself.
- By car: I-70 to Highway 9 reaches Breckenridge; mountain weather can affect freight schedules, especially in winter.
- Crew: Purple coordinates Mountain West crews and Denver-based freight routing for Breckenridge installs.
| Hotel | Distance | Why exhibitors pick it |
|---|---|---|
| Beaver Run Resort guest rooms | On-site | Ski-in, ski-out; the simplest option for exhibitors. |
| Downtown Breckenridge hotels | Walking distance | Additional dining and price points. |
