Written by RickTee on November 16, 2024
deadmau5 and extreme sports are a match made in adrenaline-fueled heaven, and this January, they’re coming together when he headlines X Games Aspen 2025.
Taking over Buttermilk Mountain on January 25th, the event is set to be a full-throttle celebration of music and action sports, and the addition of deadmau5 as Saturday’s headliner is kicking expectations into overdrive.
Returning to Aspen for the first time since 2016, the influential “Strobe” producer comes armed with plenty of new sounds. His life offstage adds even more intrigue to his X Games appearance as he’s known for similarly high-octane interests, like the Gumball 3000 motor rally. His headlining set is sure to channel the same adrenaline that fuels the jaw-dropping snowboarding and skiing feats seen throughout the weekend.
Earlier in the week on Thursday, the festivities will open with electro-soul and hip-hop from Daily Bread. Friday features a headline performance by ILLENIUM along with a set by rising DJ duo Tessla. Capping off the weekend, deadmau5 and Colorado-based electronic duo Big Gigantic will curate a Saturday night finale.
General Admission tickets start at $50 and grant access to all competitions and musical acts, while premium options like the Chalet Pass provide luxury amenities such as private viewing lounges and exclusive meet-and-greets.
