January 20th - January 22nd, 2017

A Roaring Good Time

In the heart of Mountain Village ~ Telluride

Now here’s a vacation idea that could, quite literally, get you all fired up for the close of 2019. It’s the Telluride Fire Festival, and it’s happening over the course of an action-packed weekend December 6-8, 2019, in Mountain Village. On the surface, you wouldn’t expect fire and snow to work so well together. But then again, the Telluride Fire Festival has a tendency to send all expectations up in flames. If you're planning to stay a bit longer in any of our Telluride rental homes, organize your trip with our list of things to do in Telluride.

What To Expect

Performances ~ And Artists

Performances and artists. Sculptors and fire dancers. Interactive workshops and special evening events. The truth is, there’s no shortage of ways to experience the Telluride Fire Festival. It’ll just be a matter of how much heat you can actually take.

What To Know

To Fully Enjoy ~ This Unique Experience

Most of the Telluride Fire Festival is FREE to attend, so you’ll want to catch as many of these unique artists, performers, and displays as you can possibly pack into the 3-day weekend. But to fully enjoy this one-of-a-kind festival experience, you’ll need to attend at least one or two of the special ticketed events. Be it a trip to the grand Fire Ball or meeting some of the many amazing artists that create all the awe-inspiring work, the festival allows you to choose the level of participation you’re most comfortable with. But while there are more than 50 free, fire-based exhibits, performances and workshops throughout the weekend, the special events do fill up fast. Making an advance purchase comes highly recommended.
