Boulder events this weekend.
Things to do in Boulder from Friday night through Sunday.
Boulder does most of its going out on the weekend, and this page is built around that.
How the weekend works
The list runs Friday night through Sunday, grouped by day, with the big annual festivals and the small neighborhood plans side by side, from downtown to Longmont. Use it to compare a Saturday matinee with a Friday show, find the farmers market, or line up a free afternoon for the kids. Early in the week it previews the coming weekend; once Friday arrives it tracks the current one.
How the weekend is counted
Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. On Saturday the list drops Friday, and on Sunday it shows what is left of the weekend, so you are never looking at events that already happened.
Weekend rhythms in Boulder
Saturdays tend to stack a morning market and trailhead plans with evening concerts, and CU game days fill the Hill and the east side of campus. Sundays lean toward brunch, matinees, and family outings. Each card names the venue, so you can plan a whole day in one part of town.
Make a plan that holds
Weekend shows sell out and outdoor plans move with the weather. Save the events you are considering, then confirm details through the organizer link before you go.
