The Telluride Jazz Festival celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2027. The festival features more than 20 artists on two stages in Town Park, with craft beer, cocktails and outdoor recreation.
At night, the music moves from Town Park into historic indoor venues within easy walking distance. In 2026, the opening concert and the Sunday Jazz Brunch were held in Mountain Village.
Getting around
Town Park is at the east end of downtown Telluride. The free gondola connects Mountain Village and downtown Telluride and runs 6:30 a.m. to midnight. The free Galloping Goose shuttle loops through town every 15 minutes.
