Headwater’s Music Festival

Catch a tune in Creede! Each August, the Headwater’s Music Festival brings a series of bands to town for the weekend, along with a variety of unique local dining experiences and vendor booths. The Headwater’s stage is erected on the Ball Field, set against a backdrop of Creede’s quaint downtown and soaring rock cliffs. Festival-goers set up tents and lawn chairs on the expanse of grass, backed by the San Juans Mountain range, and just a short distance from the Headwaters of the mighty Rio Grande.

The historic mining town makes an excellent live music venue, with a gallery-filled main street, top-rated Repertory Theatre, and thriving arts community. The event is sponsored by the Headwaters Music Festival, a non-profit organization.
