Help make the first edition

Our town. Our community. Everyone’s sky.

Breck Sky Fest is inviting businesses, artists, educators, venues, and community groups in Breckenridge and across Summit County to help shape a festival with Breckenridge at its heart.

A place for what you do

Start with
an idea.

Host a new event, bring an activity to the program, or give something you already run a festival twist.

The first round of invitations has gone out to schools, education organizations, arts and film groups, venues, and community contacts. There is still room for new proposals across Summit County. Activities, hosts, and commitments will be listed once agreed.

Science & stories

Bring a telescope or a good question.

Astronomers, researchers, museums, clubs, photographers, and educators can help with observing, talks, or a hands-on science station. Dark-sky and outdoor groups can contribute ideas about lighting, wildlife, and caring for the night.

Food, drinks & local businesses

Make a festival stop worth lingering at.

Cafés, restaurants, food vendors, and local shops can propose a pop-up, warm-drink stop, special menu, or sky-themed offering connected to the festival period.

Film & conversation

Bring space to the screen.

A proposed film screening could explore astronomy, dark skies, or science fiction. Film programmers, venues, and speakers can help shape a suitable event, subject to screening rights and other arrangements.

Accessible participation

Help more people take part.

Outdoor recreation and access organizations can help us assess observing setups, seating, routes, and ways to welcome guests with different needs. Access arrangements will be published per event once agreed.

Schools & youth groups

Make space for student discovery.

We are developing visits to local elementary schools, with an astronomy station and room for partner-led science activities. Teachers can tell us about student ages, group size, available space, access needs, and school-day timing.

From an idea to the program

Let’s work
out the details.

  1. 01

    Tell us what you have in mind.

    A short email is enough: who you are, the idea, who it suits, and what you would need.

  2. 02

    Find the right fit.

    We can discuss timing, venue, capacity, access, staffing, costs, and promotion together.

  3. 03

    Confirm it, then share it.

    Once agreed, the event can have its own festival listing with the details guests need.

Groups & private experiences

Coming with
a whole crew?

Planning a client event, company retreat, club visit, or a private evening during the festival period? Tell us your group size, preferred timing, and what you have in mind.

Private arrangements, capacity, and pricing will be discussed separately. Festival group bookings are not open yet.
