Colorado Indian Market & Southwest Art Fest

Since its inception over four decades ago, The Colorado Indian Market & Southwest Art Fest has delighted Denver with a winter tradition enchanted by arts & culture. Located in the heart of downtown Denver with dates that coincide with the National Western Stock & Rodeo Show, the festival is a recipe for success with a robust advertising campaign to attract the art buyers, loyal attendees, & western enthusiasts. In 2025, this colorful celebration of Native American, Southwestern and Western arts will feature 150 juried artists & craftsmen alongside tribal dances, world-renowned entertainers, culinary booths, and interactive special attractions.

Last year's surveys indicated that the previous ballroom location within the Convention Center was preferred over the exhibit hall, for overall look & feel as well as proximity to the venue's main entrance. Therefore The Colorado Indian Market & Southwest Art Fest will return to the Mile High Ballroom at the Colorado Convention Center.

The Colorado Indian Market & Southwest Art Fest is produced by Dash Events in collaboration with Rio Grande Festivals, together producers of 4 other annual award-winning art festivals in New Mexico & Colorado. Our exhibitors are our 1st customer, and consistently high sales are the common thread of our events' rankings.
