Kingdom Days
June 16, 2012 – June 17, 2012
Location: Breckenridge
Join us as we celebrate our town’s heritage during the fifth annual Kingdom Days. Celebrate 153 years of Breckenridge’s diverse history with mining, exploration and adventure. Founded in 1859, Breckenridge was inadvertently excluded from some copies of the U.S. maps, becoming known as “Colorado’s Kingdom” until 1936 when it finally became incorporated. For an entire weekend, this real town turns upside down to pay tribute to gold fields and mining, exploration and adventure, brothels and saloons, booms and busts.
