Northern Colorado’s 4th Annual FoCo Juneteenth Celebration returns June 20–21, 2025, at Foothills Mall—continuing a vibrant, community-rooted tradition of honoring Black freedom, culture, and joy. This year’s event is organized by BPN, in partnership with United Way, the City of Fort Collins, and Foothills Mall. It is proudly sponsored by FirstBank, UCHealth, and Colorado State University.
This two-day celebration centers on family, wellness, the arts, and legacy.

Thousands are expected to gather for a dynamic lineup that includes live performances, a Health & Wellness Fair, a vendor market, youth and family activities, and a celebration of community excellence.
“Juneteenth is a celebration of freedom, resilience, and culture—and it’s been a joy to see that spirit come alive in Fort Collins for the past four years,” says LaKendre’aMoore, Juneteenth Program Manager. “Each year, our community grows stronger, more unified, and more committed to honoring the legacy of liberation.”
