Description

The 13th Annual Elevation Celebration, presented by Foothills Community Collective, returns to Conifer, Colorado, July 25-26, 2026. The festival brings together music, food, and family fun for locals and visitors alike, running from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Sunday. The weekend kicks off Saturday morning with the annual Elevation Run/Walk, presented by Crossfit Conifer, setting the stage for two full days of summertime mountain fun. Festival admission is free for all ages. This year’s theme is “A Return to the ’70s.” It’s a theme that harkens back to Conifer’s roots as a close-knit, neighborly community - a small-town spirit that continues to this day along the 285 corridor. Headlining the festival entertainment are Grateful Dead tribute band Young and Dead and perennial favorite the Tyron Benoit Band, with ’70s disco tribute band Boogie Machine bringing the festival to a high-energy close Sunday evening. “The ’70s theme suits this event because it celebrates our eclectic mountain community while giving our artists, musicians, and entrepreneurs a vibrant stage on which to shine,” said event coordinator Melissa Baker. “Our focus is on creating a space where neighbors, local businesses, and volunteers can connect. Elevation Celebration is a testament to the vibrant spirit that makes Conifer such a special place to live and visit.” Elevation Celebration includes a craft fair featuring local and regional artists, the Laidback Lounge, a hidden speakeasy, and a wide range of food and drink options. “Kid Zone” activities include face painting, games, a bounce house, and aerial acts from Peak Academy of Dance. In all, more than 90 vendors - including local businesses and organizations - will connect with the community, celebrate the weekend, and promote their brand through sponsorship opportunities. Elevation Celebration 2026 festivalgoers can look forward to live performances from more than 20 bands and performers across three stages, showcasing a diverse lineup that covers bluegrass and blues to ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s favorites, southern rock, Latin rock, reggae, and alternative. The Elevation Run/Walk on Saturday morning, July 25, is a fundraiser for the Conifer Lobos Unified Boosters and Conifer Area Council Trails Team. It features a 10K, a USATF-certified 5K, and a 2-mile Family Fun Run. For more information about Elevation Celebration, visit elevationcelebration.org.
