This all-around festival features music, parades, craft fairs, and a beauty pageant. The Cañon City Music & Blossom Festival was first celebrated as “Fruit Day”, which used to be the community’s way to celebrate everyone and their bountiful harvest.
The festival will celebrate its 89th year in Cañon City from Wednesday to Sunday, April 28th to May 2nd, 2027. Also on the festival schedule is the Royal Gorge Rodeo, Colorado’s longest continuous rodeo since 1872.
Those who attend the 3-day event can expect loads of activities that everyone will enjoy. There will be concerts and orchestra competitions featuring national high school and junior high bands.
