Construction crews are working six days a week to finish the 1,501-room Gaylord Rockies Resort and Convention Center. The hotel won’t open until December but more than one million rooms are already booked.
Many groups looking to host conventions need to secure their location several years in advance so, some of the rooms are booked out as far as 2028. More than 80 percent of the conventions booked so far have never been held in Colorado before.
