Unique Thanksgiving Events in Colorado Springs to Add to Your Family’s Traditions

Thanksgiving brings families together from near and far–and while we all love a traditional celebration that includes favorites like turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, and stuffing, it’s also fun to try out new ways to celebrate the holiday. So here are some really interesting things happening around Colorado Springs that are local Thanksgiving traditions in and of themselves. You might just find a favorite new tradition to add to all the beloved old ones.

Winter Lights at Seven Falls

Every year, Seven Falls–a local hike near the Broadmoor Hotel with gorgeous waterfalls–takes colored lights to highlight the water’s beauty. This tradition has been around for over 60 years, and families love to go look at the decorated falls each year while also enjoying the fun festivities that the Broadmoor puts on to celebrate the occasion.
