Broomfield Days Celebrates the Best of Our Big-Small Town, a City with a Heart!
(Congratulations to 2025 Broomfield Days Logo creator Jacquie Colby!)
If you know you know. If you don’t, plan to go this year and find out!
Broomfield Days is more than just a one-day festival—it's a beloved annual tradition filled with numerous activities designed to gather, entertain, showcase, and build community pride.
While the pancakes, car show, parade, and incredible performances are all highlights of the main event on September 20, there are a few cherished traditions that take place ahead of the main event.
Golf for SRB
On Friday, September 19, Senior Resources of Broomfield will host the annual Broomfield Days Golf Tournament at the beautiful Eagle Trace Golf Club. Check-in begins at 7:00 a.m., where participants can enjoy a breakfast and coffee, followed by an 8:00 a.m. shotgun start in a modified scramble format.

Bingo and Pancakes
To kick off Broomfield Days weekend, join friends and neighbors on Friday night, September 19, at 7:00 p.m. at the Girl Scout Shelter for the Rotary Club of Broomfield Crossing's annual BINGO night! Just 12 hours later, the Rotary Club returns to host a delicious pancake breakfast at 7:00 a.m. Bring the whole family—kids 5 and under eat free, ages 6-12 are only $6, and ages 13 and up are $12. Rotary reopens the BINGO game at 6:00 p.m. Saturday night.
Clown Contest
Calling all little clowns of Broomfield! It’s time to clown around at the Kid’s Clown Contest! Dress up in your best clown outfit and head to the main stage for a morning of fun and laughter. Registration is free and starts at 12:15 p.m., but make sure a parent or guardian is present to sign you up. Kids will be grouped into three age divisions: 1-4 years, 5-6 years, and 7-9 years. The top two clowns in each group will win a brand-new bike! The contest will take place on the main stage from 1:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. Get ready to show off your clowning skills and make your silliness count!
Mayor’s Cup Race
Following the tasty community pancake breakfast comes the annual 2025 Broomfield Mayor’s Cup Race where runners of all ages and fitness levels line up to race the family 5K. Designed to bring the community together to promote health and fitness, the race kicks off at 8:20 a.m. on Midway Boulevard near the firehouse. Participants will follow a scenic route through Broomfield’s streets and bike paths and find themselves winding through the beautiful community park as their path leads them back over to Midway to get ready for the parade. In addition to the 5K race, there’s also the Broomfield Days Fun Run, a one-mile race down Midway Boulevard for those looking for a shorter, less competitive option. For those interested in joining the race or the FUN run, early registration is recommended as the event draws a large crowd. Register at broomfield.org/600/Broomfield-Days-Race.
Parade
The Broomfield Days Parade is one of the highlights each and every year of Broomfield Days. Friends, neighbors, and families all line up on both sides of Midway to see their kids’ school, or a high school marching band, among a variety of entries, including floats from local organizations and community groups. The Parade is set to start at 9:30 a.m. and will make it to Midway Park by 10:00 a.m. Lifelong Broomfield resident, educator, and community supporter John Long is the Master of Ceremonies for Broomfield’s highly anticipated annual parade. This year's Grand Marshal is Broomfield FISH Food Operations Manager Mike Lutz. You can read more about Mike on page 46.
Food, Fun, and Entertainment
The performance stages at Broomfield Days will feature a wide variety of talented performers from across Broomfield, showcasing all ages and styles of music and dance. From amazing bands and pom squads to hula dancers and stunning performances from local talented dance studios, there's no shortage of entertainment. And, with concessions, a Beer Garden, and carnival games galore, there's food and fun for everyone to enjoy.

Trade Fair
With an average of 30,000 attendees, it's no surprise that securing a vendor booth at the largest gathering of the year is a hot ticket. By the start of summer, all vendor booths are booked, featuring local nonprofits, arts and crafts sellers, food vendors, and everything in between. Be sure to save some time to walk around and look at everything Broomfield Days has to offer.
Bow Wow Broomfield and Dock Dogs
Bow Wow Broomfield is another popular event at Broomfield Days, dedicated to celebrating the community's furry friends. It features a variety of dog-friendly activities, contests, and vendors catering to pets and their owners. We all love our dogs and we love that they have their own area at Broomfield Days. Let your pet showcase their jumping skills at the DockDogs Contest! Dogs can compete in the Big Air competition, where they leap from a dock into a pool to see how far they can jump. They can also test their abilities in the Extreme Vertical Competition to see who jumps the highest or race against the clock in the Speed Retrieve event. All dogs are welcome to participate! Registration begins at 8:00 a.m. on Saturday, September 20, and Sunday, September 21, with the competition kicking off at 9:00 a.m. each day. Whether your dog is a seasoned pro or a first-timer, they can compete alongside national champions. For more details, visit DockDogs®.
Car Show
Senior Resources of Broomfield also hosts the Broomfield Days Car Show at Broomfield Days. The 2025 SRB Broomfield Days Car Show will be held on the scenic grass at South Midway Park just West of Nativity of Our Lord Church in Broomfield. The annual event is a beloved part of Broomfield Days, drawing car enthusiasts from all over to showcase an impressive variety of classic and unique vehicles. All cars, makes, and models are welcome. The car show isn't just a feast for the eyes; it also supports a great cause. All proceeds from the event will benefit Meals on Wheels and SRBCares Adult Programs, providing essential services to those in need within the community.
Broomfield Days is all of this and much more – it is a Fall Festival of all good things about Broomfield. Mark your calendar today and don’t miss the fun!
