Traditional camping is a test of patience, gear, and how long you can go without a functioning toilet. Glamping in Colorado, on the other hand, is the logical evolution of outdoor leisure. It’s the sweet spot between sleeping in a hotel and pretending you know how to use a gas lantern.

This list is for people who like the tranquility of nature without the privilege of hammering their fingers into the ground, right along with the tent stake. Those who want to watch the sunrise without freezing their nose off as they try to light that damp firestarter. The ones who think roughing it is fine, but squatting in the woods at midnight isn’t. 

Pride Month doesn’t sneak in quietly around here. Colorado shows up… thoughtfully, festively, and sometimes with glitter cannons. From parades and drag brunches to panel discussions and dance floors that don’t shut down until the lights flicker twice, Pride in the Centennial State is as multifaceted as the people who make it what it is.

Whether you’re all about the parade route, want to support queer-owned businesses, or just want to spend a Saturday immersed in joy and community, we’ve rounded up some of the smartest, most celebratory events happening around Colorado this June.

It’s 2025. Katy Perry’s playing outer space, Coachella costs more than your car, and your group chat still can’t agree on a playlist. But Colorado? Colorado gets it right. This summer, the state is leaning into what it does best: killer mountain views, chill crowds, and live music that won’t bankrupt your Venmo.

Whether you're in Denver, Boulder, or somewhere with more elk than Wi-Fi, there's a concert series that’s free or almost free and well worth showing up for. No wristbands. No phone face-scan fumbles. Just music (and maybe a beer garden).

Smart, stylish, and drought-friendly. Yes, your yard can be all three.

Colorado is dry. Not “reusable bottle suggested” dry. We're talking less annual rainfall than L.A. dry. And with increasing lawn watering restrictions and hotter summers, thirsty lawns and imported greenery are getting harder to justify (or maintain).

Let’s get the obvious out of the way: yes, this is a blog about helping the planet. Yes, it includes a list of great local honeys. No, it will not ask you to become a backyard beekeeper or build a tiny bee hotel out of wine corks. Unless that’s your thing. In which case, buzz on.

Think of this as your low-effort, high-impact guide to the best Colorado honey and your playbook to supporting the environment…without composting your entire lifestyle. (Or your pantry.)

Colorado isn’t just about mountain views and craft beer. The state’s walls, alleys, and underpasses double as an ever-changing outdoor gallery. From sprawling, proud murals to hidden, intimate works, street art in Colorado is bold, creative, and unapologetically local. If you’re looking for Instagram-worthy backdrops, thought-provoking visuals, or just an excuse to wander the city with coffee in hand, here’s a Colorado street art map to get you started.
