There are so many
things to be grateful for this autumn. Cooling weather, delicious fall produce,
and pretty leaves are a welcome seasonal treat, however, we are most excited to
gather again in person at Boulder Fall Fest. Spend the
weekend hanging out in downtown Boulder with our wonderful community. Here’s what you should know about Fall Fest:
When
& Where:
From September 10th
through September 12th, the entire downtown Boulder area is taken
over by autumnal activities during its annual fall festival. Pearl Street Mall acts as the epicenter of events while 14th
Street (between Spruce and Pearl) will host additional artisans, food, and
drink. Park outside of Boulder’s downtown and plan to walk or bike in as this festival
draws a large crowd. On Friday, the festival runs from 5 – 9pm. Saturday hours
are 10am – 9:30pm and Sunday hours are from 10am – 5pm.
