A Bigger Taste of Breckenridge Food and Wine

Breckenridge Food and Wine just got bigger thanks to a partnership between festival producers, Rocky Mountain Events and The Village at Breckenridge. If you have attended the event in the past at Main Street Station, you already know its an absolute blast! If you haven’t, it’s your chance to see why Breckenridge Food and Wine is one of Summit County’s best events.

A sell-out crowd visits festival wineries at Main Street Station Plaza next to Maggie Pond.

The Bigger, The Better

In 2016, the festival was busting at the seams with sell-out participation in Main Street Station Plaza and a high demand for more tickets.  “Expanding the footprint also to include The Village at Breckenridge located directly above the existing space, just makes sense,” says Director of Rocky Mountain Events, Carrie Benefiel.  “The festival will still hold its unique, mountain town charm while guests will experience shorter lines, elbow room, and more wine!  Tasters will be glad to know that they are getting their fill and then some.  High fives all around.”

Attendees receive a commemorative glass and unlimited wine samples until their heart’s content.

The Village Homeowner’s Association General Manager Nathan Nosari says, “The Village at Breckenridge is excited to partner with Rocky Mountain Events as our renovated Plaza provides the perfect venue to allow existing Main Street Station events to evolve into premier festivals for an enhanced experience for Breckenridge locals and guests.”

Rocky Mountain Events still anticipates a sell-out event for wine tasting participation.  Benefiel shares, “Breckenridge Food and Wine is so attractive overall.  The scenery, the music, the wine community and the festival atmosphere all merge to create an experience that is forever memorable; a masterpiece.  Our wine partner, Breakthru Beverage Colorado, is well-connected with the top wineries worldwide. Their specialists and attitude make attendees crave to be a part of the event again and again.  It’s incredible!”

Breckenridge Food and Wine below Peak Nine is one of the most scenic festival locations in Colorado.

Benefiel added, “Tickets are pacing well ahead of last season’s numbers.  We recommend purchasing your passes early not only to save money but to make sure that you don’t miss the opportunity to be part of a very special year for Breckenridge Food and Wine.”

Breckenridge Food and Wine isn’t the only event that will stretch its borders.  The Breckenridge Sunday Market and Breckenridge HogFest Bacon and Bourbon have the green light to incorporate Main Street Station Plaza and The Village.

Breckenridge Food and Wine; every year, it gets better.  Keep on top of the festival details at www.rockymtnevents.com.

Junior Snow Sculpture Lands in Breckenridge

Saturday, January 28th
11:00am – 2:00pm

Kids get rare chance to learn from top snow artists!

Main Street Station, Breckenridge (Monday, January 16th, 2017): Imagination comes to life through the magic of snow, and little hands.  The Main Street Station Junior Snow Sculpture will be held in the Main Street Station Plaza, near the stage on Saturday, January 28th from 11:00am until 2:00pm.  The event is free and recommended for children, ages nine and up to help kick-off the Breckenridge International Snow Sculpting viewing.

This year’s theme will focus on animals!  After all, snowmen are just too mainstream.  Young participants will use the same type of snow that the big competitors use, and will learn the basics of snow sculpting in an enjoyable environment.  Instruction will be led by one of Breckenridge’s own artists and sculpting extraordinaire, Mauricio Meneses.   Rick Seeley, constructor of the “World’s Largest Snow Fort” at Keystone Resort and part of the professional snow sculpting group “The Flake Benders”, will also be helping the kids to channel their creativity using simple tools to form snowy shapes.

In case you were wondering, the Main Street Station Junior Snow Sculpture event is not a competition.  It is however, a chance for kids to learn a constructive and inventive way to appreciate snow from talented teachers who know a thing or two about sculpture and how to have artful fun outdoors!  Be ready to see amazing creations in your yard after the next snowfall.

WARNING: The Main Street Station Junior Snow Sculpture could provoke creativity, excitement and the impulse for children to play outside during the winter.  Please register and review the tips at www.rockymtnevents.com before joining in and then bring your kiddos for a fun-filled day of AWESOME!

Snow Sculpture Instructor – Mauricio Meneses

Originally from Guatemala City, Mauricio Meneses moved to Colorado at eighteen. He was not a stranger to the art scene in his country and kicked off his career when he won his first national art award at just seventeen.  Soon after, he began traveling the world to study and discover different creative techniques, having the opportunity to expand his skills in places like South Korea, Hong Kong, Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, the UK, Netherlands, France and Malta. Education and sharing his passion are now two of his greatest joys! For the past three years, Mauricio has been applying his experience working with local venues, teaching watercolor and creating beautiful snow art throughout Breckenridge.
