COMMUNITY FEEDBACK

“Boulderthon is a strategic asset for the City of Boulder and one of our most important annual events. In only its fifth year, Boulderthon now drives nearly $23 million in economic impact – supporting thousands of jobs and generating meaningful revenue for our hotels, restaurants, retailers, and small businesses. We are proud to welcome runners, fans, and community members from Boulder and around the world, and to recognize the vibrancy, economic vitality, and community benefit this annual event delivers to our city.”

“Having Pizzeria Alberico and Frasca right at the start line of Boulderthon, it’s been incredible to see how much this race has positively impacted Boulder in just a few short years. We feel the energy building as early as Friday, with runners and visitors coming into town ahead of the Sunday race, and that momentum carries through the entire weekend. Sunday and even Sunday night are especially strong with people coming out celebrating, dining, and supporting local businesses. What’s typically a quieter fall weekend has become vibrant and full of life. From increased foot traffic to an overall elevated atmosphere, Boulderthon has been a huge asset for our restaurants and for the city as a whole.”

“Boulderthon consistently brings great energy and foot traffic to Avanti and race weekend is always a strong one for our business. Beyond the sales impact, it’s an incredible community event that brings together locals, visitors and runners of all backgrounds in a way that feels uniquely Boulder.”

Pizza Colore sees about a 15% increase in business for the weekend that the Boulderthon is taking place. It is always a fun event that adds a nice economic boost to the area.
