Ridgway Colorado

Summer just showed up and Ridgway is READY. 🙌

Fairy tales are getting hilariously wrecked by theatre camp kids 🎭, blues musicians are about to make the outdoor stage at Floating Lotus their personal living room 🎸, and wildflower experts are ready to walk you through meadows you didn't know you needed. 🌸

Yoga in the park 🧘, Paint & Sip under the big Colorado sky 🎨, trivia nights that get competitive fast 🏆, and karaoke for the brave souls among us 🎤 — it's all happening right here in little Ridgway, Colorado.

Seriously, how is this much fun packed into one small town? 🤷

All amazing shows!!! And Douglas and Heather at the ROCC event at Ridgway State Park - Colorado State Parks. How to be in 4 places at once???

🎶 BIG NIGHT FOR LIVE MUSIC IN RIDGWAY! 🎶

Three great shows. Three great venues. One amazing little town.

Tonight we’ve got:

🌲 Organtic at Floating Lotus Brewery – 7 PM
🍻 Flannel Feedback at Colorado Boy Depot – 4–8 PM
🎷 High Step Society at The Sherbino – 7:30 PM

Seeing this much talent in Ridgway is something worth celebrating. Just a few years ago, a night like this would have been hard to imagine in our little town.

At the same time, nights like these remind us how important it is for all of us—venues, promoters, and music lovers—to keep communicating and working together. We’re a small town with a huge music scene, and when we coordinate our calendars, everybody wins: bigger crowds, stronger venues, happier artists, and an even better experience for our community.

No matter where you end up tonight, get out and support live music. Here’s to continuing to grow something special together. ❤️🎶

Breaking news: Ridgway once again refuses to be boring. 🎉

This week’s lineup includes:
live rooftop music, gritty rock shows, Americana under the stars, free train rides, yoga in the park, archery lessons, art walks, karaoke, pickleball clinics, meditation, shaved ice, summer kickoff parties, and a walking tour dedicated to *True Grit*.

Somewhere between the Railroad Museum and the Sherbino, between First Friday art openings and open mic night at the Lotus, the town has fully shifted into summer mode.

You may leave the house intending to “run one errand” and return several hours later having:
• listened to live music
• run into twelve people you know
• signed up for something unexpected
• and somehow acquired a lemonade, concert tickets, and new weekend plans

No promises. That’s just how June works around here.
