Miner’s Feast:
Soups, Stews & Brews
October 2–3, 2026 | Historic Downtown Idaho Springs
Celebrate fall in the mountains at Miner’s Feast, an Oktoberfest inspired weekend filled with local food, Colorado brews, live music, shopping, and plenty of mountain-town cheer in the heart of historic Idaho Springs
Friday kicks off the weekend with live music, local vendors, food and drinks, and a downtown pumpkin patch. Bring the family, grab something warm to eat, explore the shops along Miner Street, and settle in for an evening of fall fun.
Saturday brings another full day of live music and vendors, plus the Taste of Idaho Springs—a fundraiser benefiting Charlie’s Place.
Purchase a $40 Taste of Idaho Springs ticket and eat your way through participating restaurants and businesses, each serving up a special 3 oz. bite of soup, stew, or chili. Look for paired brews and beverages along the way, then cast your vote alongside our judges for the Best Bite in Idaho Springs.
Come for the bites. Raise a glass. Stay for the music.
