Glorious weather and history making runs once again raised the bar for the world’s greatest snowboard event. The 2015 Open is being touted as the “best ever.” 94 of the greatest snowboarders representing 19 countries, including Olympic medalists and riders as young as 14 years old, converged on Vail for the third time for four days of intense competition and fun. Riders included such greats as Jamie Anderson (Olympic gold, USA), Kelly Clark (Olympic bronze, USA), Chloe Kim (XGames gold, USA) and Silje Norendhal (XGames gold, NOR), Mark McMorris (Olympic bronze, CAN ), Stale Sandbech (Olympic silver, NOR), Danny Davis (XGames gold, USA) and Iouri Podladchikov (Olympic gold, SUI). The goal for 2015 was to to produce the best USO to date by building upon the successes of the last two years and making improvements where needed. This was accomplished both on-hill, with enhancements to the competition venues and a smoother build process, as well as off-hill, including greater outreach efforts among local merchants, youth and the community at large and more targeted marketing and promotion. These efforts resulted in a better event for the guests, greater economic impacts to the local community over the last two years and a significant number of millennials coming to Vail. 4 Town of Vail | CSE | 5/19/15 USO By The Numbers: Event Overview 5 •Date: March 2-7, 2015 •Athletes: 94 •Spectators: 21,500 unique/112,996 spectator impressions •Visitor Profile: 51% overnight visitors, 34% make over $150k, 56% from outside CO, 63% first time USO attendees, 21% were first time visitors to Vail, 53% had come earlier in the same season, 40% of those surveyed came to Vail for the event. •Millennial: 45% (were under 34) and nearly 2/3rd of all parties had group members that fell within that age cohort (63%). •NPS: 58 (up from 40% in 2013) Town of Vail | CSE | 5/19/15 USO By The Numbers: Event Overview 6 •Good fit for Vail: 81% of those surveyed said the USO is an “extremely good fit” •Likely to recommend: 71% are “extremely likely” to recommend the event to a friend or family member •Event Budget: $4,500,000 •TOV Investment: $400,000 •Parking Revenue Generated: $121,738.10 •Tax Revenue Generated in March: $4,057,344 •Direct economic impact by attendees: $3,081,167.56 •ROI to Vail (RRC): $7.70 for every partnership dollar •ROI to Vail for PR Impressions: 60-to-1 Town of Vail | CSE | 5/19/15 USO By The Numbers: Event Overview 7 •TV Programs: 7 •Global Broadcast Hours: 2239 •Global Webcast Hours: 83,253 •Media On Site: 146 •PR Impressions: 1,755,723,717 •Social Media Impressions: 186,727,100 Town of Vail | CSE | 5/19/15 8 Brand Compatibility "It's fun to be here in Vail.
