Whether it’s family movie nights under the stars, those honky-tonk Gypsum Daze, or the Community Cleanup, Gypsum loves events and any excuse for fireworks!

Check out this year’s event line up below.  If you or your organization would like to volunteer to help at any of our events let us know by filling out our Volunteer Form. Or, when we are in or headed into event season we will post event-specific volunteer signups below.

Event Sponsorship - Our Gypsum community events are a great way to create brand awareness, generate leads, and engage with participants. If you are interested in learning more about our various event sponsorship opportunities, please contact us.
