The vast San Luis Valley is home to more than three hundred days of sunshine, incredible mountain ranges, and a wonderful high-altitude atmosphere for growing potatoes. Every September Monte Vista hosts its annual late summer potato harvest.
Promoting and celebrating the potato harvest, visitors head to Chapman Park for family-friendly activities with food, crafts, and music the entire day. There’s an end-of-the-day concert at Ski-Hi Park for more food and beer. There’s also an exciting Motorsport Stunt Show with motorcycles and snowmobiles.
This year’s San Luis Valley Potato Festival takes place on Saturday, September 10th, 2022.
Some festival highlights include:
- Freshly harvested colorado potatoes | Music | Crafts and food vendors
- Bouncy houses | Rock climbing wall | Truck show | Kid’s games
- Narrated train tours | Guided agricultural tours | Live animals
- The Famous Mashed Potato Dunk Tank | Tater Trot 5K Race
