OPEN to the first 150 people, Get your tickets now!

In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, all guests will be required to wear a mask (each guest will receive a Special Edition Folk 'n' Flannel mask upon arrival). Social distancing will be encouraged at the event (tent spaces will be 6 feet apart in all directions and guests are required to bring their own tent chairs for the band performances to reduce the spread of the virus). Outdoor activities will be by sign up and will be limited to the specific number of participants outlined and mandated by the state of Colorado during the time of the event. Because the event has to be on a smaller scale, which has severely limited our programming for the year, this fundraiser is a much bigger deal for UpaDowna than in past years as the funds we raise will help to keep us afloat for the year. We understand times are tough and are trying our best to promote local businesses at this event. If you are interested in becoming a sponsor please call: 719-429-9006.
