We are thrilled to announce the 2026 Telluride Autumn Classic, a premier 4-day festival set against the stunning backdrop of the San Juan Mountains during peak fall foliage. This year, we are also combining our Corvettes and Colors event into the festival for a truly comprehensive celebration of automotive excellence, innovation, and art.  

The Telluride Autumn Classic creates an elevated experience beyond your typical motoring festival. With the backdrop of the spectacular San Juan Mountains, automobiles and motorcycles take center stage for 3-days of world-class celebrations and family-friendly fun.  Plus 4 days of Art!

The Autumn Classic festival schedule includes live music, art, contests, shopping and activities for all!

To make this year’s festival more connected than ever, we have launched our official branded festival app!
