Founded in 1984, the Colorado College Summer Music Festival is a long-time Colorado Springs tradition. Around since before Colorado became a state, the college’s music history is long and storied, making this festival one of the best of its kind.
Plus, it’s a great place to spot up-and-coming classically trained musicians from around the globe who spend three weeks in intensive preparation for the spectacular festival performances. A family-friendly event, the Colorado College Summer Music Festival is a time to enjoy classical orchestral and chamber music performed by the Colorado College students and faculty.
The 38th annual Colorado College Summer Music Festival will be held from Sunday thru Friday, June 5th – 24th, 2022, with multiple concerts held at various performance halls and art centers on the Colorado College campus. Tickets are available to purchase on May 1 for the general public.
