The Durango Heritage Celebration is a city-wide Durango event that has a mission to celebrate Durango's history and diverse heritage. This celebration honors the period between 1881 and 1910 with a long weekend full of events, special activities, learning tours and much more! October 7-10 2010.

 

Harken back to Victorian times in an Old West celebration set in a small historic town nestled in the San Juan Mountains of Southwestern Colorado. The October Durango Heritage Celebration, October 9-12 2008, is a multi-faceted festival of Durango's colorful and diverse history. The community-wide event offers a variety of activities, sure to please ladies, gentlemen and children. It includes many opportunities for attendees to dress up and be a part of Durango's Victorian and Old West past, or to enjoy the ambiance in modern dress.

Highlights include, but are not limited to: a Grand Victorian Ball, a Victorian Governors' Banquet, a period costume promenade on historic Third Avenue, a Victorian fashion show and tea, a barber shop concert, a vintage gun workshop, historic walking tours, a period steam train ride on our historic narrow-gauge railroad and other fun and educational activities throughout Durango's downtown.

The cornerstone activity of this event will be a Grand Victorian Ball to be held on Saturday, October 11th, 2008. The ball will feature the authentic Victorian music of the Grandview Victorian Orchestra, with dance prompting by Sharon Guli of River Crossing, Inc. In addition, Mike Guli will move among the couples during dances to help those who need to learn some of these vintage dances. If you are new to Victorian dancing, do not be deterred from joining us. The dances are not difficult and Sharon and Mike will make participation successful and very enjoyable for all!
