KlezKolorado is a weekend-long celebration of Klezmer music, Yiddish culture, creativity, and Jewish community in the heart of Denver. Centering local and nationally recognized Klezmer artists, the festival brings together concerts, workshops, cultural experiences, and opportunities to connect with fellow music lovers and Yiddishists. We celebrate the vibrant Klezmer revival happening across Denver, Boulder, and beyond while creating a welcoming space for people of all backgrounds to gather, learn, and celebrate together. As a queer-led and queer-centered festival, we are committed to fostering an inclusive environment where everyone belongs.
Hosted at the Mizel Arts and Culture Center at the JCC Denver, KlezKolorado transforms one of the city’s premier cultural destinations into a lively hub of music, learning, and celebration. Throughout the weekend, guests can enjoy inspiring performances, hands-on workshops, participatory music sessions, dancing, delicious food, family-friendly activities, and opportunities to build community—all conveniently located in one place. With ample free parking and a central Denver location, the festival makes it easy to experience everything KlezKolorado has to offer, whether you join us for a single concert or immerse yourself in the full weekend of programming.
