    What happened???? The only good thing about the festival…read morethis year was the music. I loved the bands that I got to hear. I have been going to this festival for 25 years or more. I've seen it grow and become one of the highlights of fall. I have not been since COVID. Wow. What happened? I really hate leaving critical reviews, but had to in the hopes that person(s) who are organizing this event will read this and make some improvements. While I realize that inflation is terrible now, the cost of food was insane. Some other reviewer mentioned that the cost for a booth this year was around $200. Overall, they didn't have much to offer this year. We went on a Sunday which is often less busy, but it felt like the Arapahoe County Fair. There were only a few Scottish themed food items and rest were typical carnival food. There wasn't a vendor selling Guinness or cider. They had some craft beer, mead, and wine in a can. There was one small food truck selling scotch eggs and another selling cottage pies. Each of these vendors had very long lines. There were a few vendors selling fish and chips. Several turkey leg vendors. There were only one-two people working at each booth. The admission fee was strange. The website said purchasing tickets online would save money. It was $35 at the door and $40 if you purchased it online plus a $5 convenience fee. That made no sense. That is higher rather than lower. I purchased two tickets online anyway and only got one. I emailed them and they emailed me my tickets. A few people mentioned that whomever organized the Festival needed to find a better vendor for selling tickets online. I would agree. Their website needs to be updated. Schedules of events were unclear. There was no information about parking and when we arrived, there were no signs indicating where we should park. There was a janky little machine that you could pay for parking through that. When got there, there was no program or one printed map and schedule on a sandwich board sign, so you could take a picture of. It was a map that looked like a 3rd grader did it with Minecraft and information on which tent to go to for the music. There were about half the number of pipe bands, competitive dancing, dogs of the British Isles, and agility dog shows. At the closing ceremony, there were only a handful of people in the bleachers and maybe 3 bands. It was so sad to see it decline like this. Just overall, it seemed like no thought or attention was given towards anything and it was like they thought the festival was going to run itself. I don't know how the festival is supposed to be run -- is it all volunteers?

    I'm still a fan, but there have been many negative changes to the festivities: prices are higher,…read morethere were no rescue dogs there, on Sunday there were minimal dog agility activities, the heavy armour jousting was absent, and many of the clans have pulled out. We plan to get there early so we can get parking, and take a picnic rather than eat the festival food. Sis and I go to walk with the Douglas Clan in the service on Sunday, and love visiting with other clan members. Albannach was also present, as was the Welsh Baker in a separate tent set up for enjoying a Scotch egg and scones.

    There are a ton of booths to explore here. I'm glad I ran across my favorite yesterday! Adventurist…read moreSoap Company located closer to the Tea house. I was down to my last bar so I did a stock up. Once you try this soap (amongst other products) you will be hooked. The owner Daina is super knowledgeable about your skin needs. You can't find soap like this in any grocery store. She also has a website where you explore and order online. Super friendly, awesome prices. Hands down the best booth here. She has many events over the summer! I will never go back to the grocery store for my soap! Hopefully this link will work for the website. Adventurist Soap Co.

    What a great time this past summer at the Boulder Creek Festival! Even though I've been here I few…read moreyears, it was my first time going. It's set along the creek with ample space for fun. There's usually an art show happening too so there's lots to do. You buy a reservation online for a drinking window. Get there on time cause once your times up, you're out! So go as early as you can for maximum sampling. And you'll want time too, cause there's like 25-30 breweries out! Local favorites like Avery and Stem, and some National big buys like Woodchuck cider. You get a pretty cool glass too ( sometimes half the reason for going!). Overall, can't wait to go next year!
