Summer Concert Series: Foggy Mountain Spaceship

Concerts are free, no reservations needed! Members receive priority seating at 6 pm; general public at 6:30 pm.

Foggy Mountain Spaceship lands in our courtyard to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the moment U.S. astronauts, including Longmont’s own Vance Brand, and Soviet cosmonauts met in space at the height of the Cold War and shook hands. Featuring Chris Elliott on banjo, Chris Sheldon on the Banjotron Acoustikit 2000™, and Kyle Ussery on bass, Foggy Mountain Spaceship plays original compositions, unexpected covers, psychedelic instrumentals and more.

Join us for our first Summer Concert Series in our brand new, transformed Stewart Family Courtyard. Stretch out and enjoy some tunes from up-and-coming local bands and icons of Colorado’s music scene as the sun sets over Longs Peak. Lawn chairs and picnics are welcome, kids and families, too! Food and drink available for purchase (no outside alcohol allowed).

Order charcuterie & sandwiches

New this year, enjoy hand-crafted charcuterie boxes ($12) and sandwiches ($14) for purchase during the Summer Concerts in the Stewart Family Courtyard, sourced from local favorites such as Cheese Importers, Olin Farms and Robin Chocolates by Altitude Catering. Available for pre-order online or in limited quantity at the event.
