Going on its 41st continuous year, Snowdown Durango persists in promoting local businesses and tourism, in that order, for tens of thousands of participants. As has been typical for each year, Snowdown boasts well over 100 events for participants, which will all take place in downtown Durango at the end of this month.
The theme, A Comic-Con Snowdown, will surely entertain and inspire magnificent props and costumes. The annual Snowdown Light Parade that is put on by the locals, attracts over 10,000 spectators to the streets of downtown Durango to take part in the fun. The light parade features amazing, theme-oriented light floats, performance art and costumes all in relation to the theme. Whether it’s the old favorite events like Outhouse Stuffing, The Snowdown Jokedown, and Outlaw Josie Pete’s Golf Tournament; or, some of the family fun events such as the Feline and Canine Fashion Show, The Snowdown Kids Follies or The Snowdown Hot Air Balloon Rally, everyone will want to be sure to join in!
The annually changing themes of Snowdown Durango make this five-day festival truly one of a kind. Voted one of Outside Magazine’s top five winter carnivals in North America! For complete details and more information please visit www.snowdown.org and come and experience the festivities for yourself!
