EmberFest Presents - Sexy Sneakers Dance Workshop

Save the date: February 14–21, 2026 | Grand Finale: February 21

Every February, Golden comes together to celebrate creativity, community, and the magic of light returning to the valley. Now in its 20th year, EmberFest, once the Snow King’s Masque Parade, has grown into a week-long celebration of art, imagination, and shared possibility.

This year’s theme, Positive Futurisms: Portals of Possibility, invites us to imagine hopeful futures shaped by creativity and connection. Throughout the week, workshops, performances, and community art-making will spark curiosity across Golden, culminating in a spectacular outdoor pageant in Spirit Square featuring puppets, skits, music, and stories created by hundreds of community members.
