What's Happening in Longmont This Winter?

Longmont is where I work, live, and play! I love spending time at local events and festivals, seeing live music, attending museum exhibits, trying new restaurants and interacting with others in the community. Here are some upcoming events that I am so excited about! I hope you all can join me!

Winter Walkabout

With more than 40 performances at 17 venues throughout Downtown Longmont, this will be a day you won't soon forget. In addition to tons of live, local music, you'll have access to a number of amazing Food & Drink deals that are worth the price of admission alone. 

To close out the night at our headline venue, The Burroughs will bring their high-energy brand of Sweaty Soul Music to the Elks Ballroom at the corner of 3rd and Coffman, with Latin Ska champions Roka Hueka setting the stage for a full night of grooving and dancing. 

More details coming soon, including full venue list, lineup, schedule, and link to purchase tickets. 

Mark your calendars for Groundhog Eve, this is a night in Longmont you won't want to miss!
