What is Broomfield Days? Welcome to Broomfield Days. This is a one-day festival held on the 3rd Saturday in September. This is an outdoor festival that is held rain or shine so be prepared for the unpredictable Colorado weather. We are glad you are considering being a part of this annual celebration. The success of this celebration depends on community support and involvement by local organizations. Broomfield Days began as an opportunity for local non-profit groups to raise funds for their organizations. We continue this tradition by asking vendors to donate to a non-profit. Arts & Craft vendors are excluded. Breakfast starts at 7 a.m. in the Girl Scout Shelter, sponsored by the Lions Club, lunch by local restaurants...There's a parade, a race, shopping, entertainment, including a clown contest, concerts, demonstrations, etc. The day ends with a family concert at 4:30 p.m.
