Aurora Festivals & Shows

Aurora is a beautiful Colorado city that always seems to be abuzz with the business of everyday activity and hustle and bustle. Thankfully, there are several festivals and events that occur over the course of the year that are all about unwinding and having some good clean fun. These happenings spotlight special events and groups that not only help give back to the area, but give the people of Aurora something to truly celebrate.

Aurora celebrates their younger citizens with KidSpree held every July. The festival features more than 60 hands-on activities and entertainers. Plus, the kids get the chance to paint a tiny tot town any color they like, turn a real car into an unusual masterpiece, enjoy some time in the petting zoo and even swim in a pool of noodles! Mom and dad need to remember to bring the camera to capture every colorful minute!

Every October, the people of Aurora let it fly with the annual Punkin Chunkin Colorado. The idea is to hurl pumpkins through the air as creatively as possible. It is quite amusing to see the various ingenious contraptions designed to launch pumpkins as high as possible. There's also lots more fun at this festival with hayrides, scarecrow making, a pumpkin patch and great live music.

The influential Hispanic community in Aurora brings much cultural influence to the area every day of the year. That influence is celebrated to great effect with Fiesta Aurora, a city-wide festival held every June. Mariachi music, spicy food and stunning art are just part of this celebration of Hispanic culture.
