What is TEDxBreckenridge?

Bathed in the extraordinary beauty of the Rocky Mountains, TEDxBreckenridge is inspired by our environment. We live in an amazing hub for skiing, hiking, mountain biking and every other kind of outdoor activity you can imagine

So many of us are here to be as close as we can to nature and adventure. Nature feeds us, unites us, and pushes us outside our comfort zones. It tugs at our heartstrings and allows us to search and wonder.

As a local and community member, it is easy to get caught up in the day-to-day trials, tribulations, and all the activities the mountains have to offer. 

TEDxBreckenridge is here to bring our community together through thoughtful conversation and exploration and share the way nature influences us.

TEDxBreckenridge’s goal is to highlight local voices and further expand knowledge and learning opportunities in this county we all know and love. 

This half-day conference and event will allow us to live in a space of wonder while connecting with our community in a different way than ever before.

We hope to ignite your curiosity, passion for our community and take time to pause and think. At the end of TEDxBreckenridge, our hope is that our community will be strengthened and our cups will be full.
