Description
Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Saturday, May 24, 2025.

The Boulder Creek Festival kicks off today as part of the Memorial Day weekend celebrations. Now in its 36th year, this beloved community event runs through Monday, May 26, offering three days of free family fun, live music, food, and entertainment along the creek. The festival officially began yesterday and continues through Memorial Day.

For early birds, the Boulder Farmers Market is open today from 8am to 2pm. As Colorado's largest farmers market, you'll find seasonal produce, eggs, cheeses, meats, herbs, flowers, wines, and gourmet food products from local growers. Its picturesque setting next to Central Park and Boulder Creek makes it a perfect Saturday morning destination.

Nature enthusiasts will be happy to hear that the Eldorado Canyon State Park free weekend shuttle service begins today. This service helps manage the increased visitor traffic to one of our most popular outdoor destinations during the busy summer months.

If you're looking to enjoy Boulder's natural beauty from a different perspective, consider taking advantage of today's perfect hiking weather. Some wildflowers are beginning to bloom, making Memorial Day weekend an ideal time to explore our trail system.

For those planning trips between Nederland and Boulder, the free Boulder Canyon Extra Bus Service has been extended through May 23, supplementing RTD's NB bus route.

Music lovers won't want to miss the Boulder Chamber Orchestra's 20th Anniversary Celebration tonight at 7:30pm at Macky Auditorium. The grand finale of their anniversary season features internationally-acclaimed concert pianist Adam Żukiewicz performing Rachmaninoff's Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini.

A reminder that in observance of Memorial Day, all city administrative facilities and Age Well Centers will be closed on Monday, though some facilities and services will remain open.

And for those who enjoy our iconic views, the daily live stream of the Flatirons and Indian Peaks from Majestic View Drive in Louisville continues to provide stunning visuals of our mountain backdrop.

Weather today is perfect for outdoor activities, so get out and enjoy all that Boulder has to offer this holiday weekend.
