EAGLE, CO– Due to continued revisions to local and statewide restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic, Bonfire Brewing and Optimum Events announced today that while the 2021 Bonfire Block Party will not happen as planned on June 4 - 6, 2021, they are optimistic about bringing live music to Eagle later this summer.
Individuals who still hold tickets purchased for the 2020 Bonfire Block Party should follow the instructions outlined on the Bonfire Block Party website. Ticket holders are asked to choose from two options: 1) They can receive a full refund, or 2) They can donate their ticket funds towards continuing support efforts following the tragic death of Bonfire Brewing co-founder Andy Jessen earlier this year in an avalanche along with two other Eagle residents, Adam Palmer and Seth Bossung. If ticket holders do not respond by July 31, the funds from their ticket will automatically be donated. Amanda Jessen and the rest of the Bonfire family remain deeply grateful and humbled by this act of support from our Block Party community.
The brewery and its event partner Optimum Events are working to produce alternative live music events under the Bonfire Block Party name to fill the void left by this change. They will make announcements accordingly at a later time, and continue to prioritize public health over good times.
“It appears we are all heading towards a day in the not-so-distant future where we can stand shoulder to shoulder listening to the live music we crave,” says Bonfire Co-Founder Amanda Jessen. “In the interest of putting on the best Bonfire Block Party possible while maintaining safety, we felt it best to postpone for a future date”.
