It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Awww... FoCoMX. What can I say about you that most people don't already know? You truly are the most wonderful time of the year. It's no wonder the local musicians call you FoCoMX-Mas.  No one sleeps for at least the week before - bands are perfecting their set, volunteers are furiously working on last minute details and music lovers from all over are scouring through your program guide to figure out their schedules.  We wait all year to see you, to feel you and to experience you and then the weekend is finally upon us. There is an electric excitement that rolls through the city when you arrive. Of course there has to be when you put so much talent into such a short time span.  250 different local acts performing at 25 local businesses - some established and some new, some full time and some occasional but all coming together to create something special for our community.  A gift that we can treasure and support year round; created by local musicians for local musicians that has turned into so much more. Thank you FoCoMX for helping us celebrate how much local music means to us.

FoCoMX is presented by the Fort Collins Musicians Association as a weekend dedicated to celebrating local music in Northern Colorado. This year's festival will take place on Friday April 23 and Saturday April 24th at various locations in Old Town Fort Collins and will feature an all local lineup of music.
