Live Events in Fruita, CO

Fruita's emerging live music scene reflects the Western Slope town's evolution from a quiet agricultural community to an outdoor recreation destination. Cavalcade and Copper Club Brewing host regular live music nights that pull from the Grand Junction area's pool of local talent, with occasional touring acts making the Western Slope stop. The Mike the Headless Chicken Festival each spring features live bands alongside the town's most famous (and strangest) tradition. Fruita's mountain biking culture has attracted a younger, creative population that's fueling demand for more live entertainment.
