92nd Annual Donkey Derby Days

August 11 - August 13

Now in its 92nd year, Donkey Derby Days tops the list of favorite Cripple Creek events. People from all over the world descend on downtown to be inspired by the town’s resident donkey herd, who roam Cripple Creek in honor of the original Cripple Creek donkeys from the town’s Gold Rush days.

 

Enjoy our beer gardens, food vendors, retail vendors, kids activities, donkeys, and live music!
