WinterWonderGrass kicks off with an exclusive Mountaintop Dinner on Thursday, February 27. As the snow falls, ride the gondola up Steamboat Mountain where a long table full of fresh, local cuisine and drink, an intimate group of people, and live music awaits. Special ticket required and can be purchased here.

The Coletrain Music Academy will once again join WinterWonderGrass for a pop-up Camp Coletrain, where adults and kids alike will have the opportunity to participate in musical workshops from professional musicians and sit in on a public pick before gates open at 2 p.m. each day.

“Music has an extraordinary power to bring people together, inspire creativity, and spark change. One of the most rewarding aspects of our workshops, like the one featured in ‘Renewal,’ is hearing from families who share how these experiences have inspired their children to join orchestras or start private lessons. It’s incredible to see how a single moment of connection and discovery can ignite a lifelong passion. At Coletrain Music Academy, we’re committed to creating these opportunities, knowing that every note played helps build a stronger, more connected community.”

– Coleman Smith, Music Director and Founder of Coletrain Music Academy
