Best August Events in Breckenridge [Updated for 2023]

It's no surprise that we LOVE August in the mountains. With the promise of rainy afternoons and gorgeous mornings, we love to get outside to play. With hiking (featuring wildflowers), arts festivals, and Concerts in the Park, there is so much to do in August in Summit County.
