About the Colorado 150 Film Festival
Colorado turns 150 this year — and we’re marking it with the biggest cinematic celebration the state has ever seen. 150 films. 150 screenings. Historic venues from the mountains to the plains. Watched together, in person, the way movies are meant to be seen.
The CO150 Film Festival is a collection of the best cinema ever made in Colorado, about Colorado, or by Coloradans — past and present. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime celebration. And it’s a genuinely good excuse to get off the couch.
The Downtown Creative District is proud to partner with Rocky Mountain Women’s Film to present six of the ten film screenings in Colorado Springs. See the statewide list of screenings at Colorado150Film.com
