As we move into Spring, more and more events start popping up for Coloradons to experience. The beautiful aspect of Colorado is that there’s constantly new and exciting festivals to enjoy all year round! Below is a list of a handful of activities that are worth venturing out of hibernation for this Spring. 

X Games, Aspen, CO 

One of the biggest benefits to living in Colorado is that the Rocky Mountains are our backyard landscape and we have every opportunity to hop in our cars and get on the mountain. Not only are we able to ride some of the best mountains in the world, but we also have a front row seat to watching world champion and Olympic Medalists run our mountains during the January X Games in Aspen, Colorado. Every year, January 23-26, the X Games, free and open to the public, are hosted on Buttermilk Mountain with special performances from world-renowned artists. A must-see event if you’re able to make the four trip to Aspen. 

Winter-Wonder Grass Colorado, Steamboat, CO

The eight annual Winter-wonder grass music festival celebrates “Music, Brews, and Mountains”. Bluegrass and craft beer are the quintessential elements of this festival hosted in Steamboat Springs, Colorado from February 21-23. This magical concert hosts music artists appropriate for all members of the family. A few headliners and top performers for the 2020 concert include, but are not limited to: Greensky Bluegrass, Billy Strings, Marco Price and Nikki Lane. 

Denver Restaurant Week, Denver, CO  

For the sixteenth year in a row, Denver will host its annual Restaurant Week where hundreds of Denver’s top restaurants will offer multi-course dinners for three different prices: $25, $35 or $45. For ten straight days, restaurants in popular neighborhoods like the Highlands, Golden Triangle, Wash Park, and Cherry Creek will celebrate Denver’s culinary scene. 

Denver Chalk Art Festival, Denver, CO

This free two-day street-art festival right on Market Street in Downtown Denver hosts hundreds of artists, some of which are madonnari chalk artists from around the world, as they spend hours creating chalk masterpieces in the middle of closed-down Larimer Square. Bystanders and art lovers are able to walk back and forth watching and admiring as these delicate artists sketch for hours over the Spring weekend. 

Colorado Chocolate Festival, Denver, CO

You read that correctly, a chocolate festival. This festival celebrates chocolate in every way you can imagine: tastings, cooking demos, wine tastings, contests, and chocolate for sale. With over one hundred vendors selling fudge, candy, cookies, truffles, brownies, toffees, cakes, coffees, and more. What else could possibly be more?  A Baileys chocolate martini bar serving Baileys infused cupcakes.
