Pearl Street Stampede
Celebrating its 5th year, the Pearl Street Stampede has become a wonderful community tradition and a perfect opportunity for the downtown families and visitors alike to showcase pride and support for CU! Led by Stephen Tebo’s vintage 1948 fire truck, the Golden Buffalo Marching Band performs for fans starting on the 1300 block of Pearl Street moving west, stopping along the 1200 block and 1100 block to entertain. Along the Stampede route, fans have the chance to cheer on the CU football team. more

Downtown Boulder’s Switch on the Holidays & St. Nicks on the Bricks
Switch on the Holidays is Downtown Boulder’s annual lighting ceremony. After holiday caroling, Santa will count down to the grand illumination of the Pearl Street Mall, the County Courthouse and the star on Flagstaff Mountain. From there, it’s off to the Ice Rink at One Boulder Plaza for Light Up the Ice – a holiday ice show featuring Tweedles the Elf.
Santa will also be making multiple appearances on the Pearl Street Mall this holiday season. During Downtown Boulder’s St. Nicks on the Bricks, kids of all ages can visit with Santa at the Downtown Boulder Visitor Information Center (1303 Pearl Street). Whether you are asking for a fire engine for Tommy, a new doll for Molly or a diamond ring for mommy, bring your list and a camera to capture priceless holiday memories. more
