Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for October 20th, 2025.
Sunrise in Boulder is a perfect autumn palette today, with the Flatirons holding a misty pink hue. Local meteorologists are predicting a crisp, sunny Monday, highs in the upper fifties, and just enough chill to make that first cup of coffee at your favorite Pearl Street café taste a little richer. Layers are your friend if you’re out and about because the wind is expected to pick up as the afternoon rolls in.
If you’re hoping to start the week with some inspiration, the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art has unveiled its new interactive exhibit centered on climate resilience. Locals are raving about how it brings together the community’s creative spirit and environmental expertise in a space that’s both thought-provoking and fun. Admission is discounted for Boulder County residents through the end of the month. Across town, Colorado University Boulder’s campus is buzzing as preparations continue for Homecoming Week. Students and alumni are putting the final touches on floats ahead of Friday’s parade, while the marching band rehearses in the endless sunshine. Tonight, the campus hosts a lively panel discussion with former Buffs athletes talking about sports and mental health, open to the public at the Glenn Miller Ballroom.
For foodies, this is a big week: Boulder Harvest Festival returns to the Farmer’s Market on Wednesday. Vendors from across the county will showcase late-season produce and hand-crafted treats. This morning, the city’s culinary buzz is all about the debut of Wild Roots Bakery downtown, serving up gluten-free cinnamon rolls that have reportedly been selling out within hours. If you’re quick, you might pick up the last batch before the lunch rush. Coffee shops are switching over to their fall brews, so keep an eye out for pumpkin spice and maple lattes.
Expect traffic delays near Chautauqua Park as ongoing paving work continues. The city says crews are ahead of schedule, but parking will remain limited through Friday. Bike commuters, meanwhile, get good news: the new Folsom Street bike lane opens Wednesday, creating a much-needed north-south corridor. Boulder’s Parks and Rec department is also launching free guided hikes at Mount Sanitas this week, focusing on local ecology and trail stewardship. Sign-ups are available online if you want to join a group this Thursday morning for a sunrise hike.
Lastly, if you’re in the mood for live music, the Fox Theatre and eTown Hall have stacked schedules with local and touring acts tonight. Boulder native Luna Marsh performs a homecoming show at eTown, with all proceeds supporting wildfire recovery projects in Boulder County. And don’t forget, city council meets tomorrow to finalize decisions on affordable housing, and they’re inviting public comment, so your voice matters.
That wraps up the latest from around town. This has been Boulder Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
