Did you know there are many events in Crested Butte and Gunnison? See live music, take an art class, volunteer, play trivia, watch (or participate in) a ski or bike race, and more! Check this calendar to see what’s going on.

Join us for a lively evening supporting the Crested Butte Snowsports Foundation, featuring delicious food from local favorite Tully’s and live music from the Black Canyon Ramblers. This community fundraiser helps provide opportunities for local youth to thrive in snowsports, from scholarships to gear support. Enjoy great eats, mountain vibes, and foot-stomping tunes-all for a great cause. Bring your friends and your dancing shoes!
Gunnison Valley is also host to several beloved annual events. A classic winter event is The Alley Loop, a Nordic ski race that doubles as a costume contest. In fall, Mt. Crested Butte hosts the famous Chili and Beer Festival. Every summer in Gunnison, a crowd gathers to watch America’s fourth-oldest rodeo, Cattlemen’s Days. There are also festivals in Crested Butte that celebrate local art, music, wildflowers, and more. Attending an annual event is a good way to connect with the culture of the Gunnison Valley. You might even create a new tradition for you and your family and friends!
