Welcome to the largest wild mushroom happening in North America, the 46th Annual Telluride Mushroom Festival! This program of the Telluride Institute, a 501c3 non-profit, offers a plethora of events ranging from foray and mushroom ID sessions, to hands-on demonstrations and lectures—all led by regionally, nationally, and internationally-known experts, (and we cannot forget the wide variety of social and cultural events offered, along with the famous Mushroom Parade!) there is plenty for everyone, every day.
On this website, you can filter your search by events, venues, presenters, etc. Each year the Mushroom Festival features many wonderful presentations on “all things fungi.” Presentations on similar topics are grouped together at the same venue so that attendees interested will be able to spend more time learning and interacting, and less time walking between venues. See who else is interested in each event and interact with our extended Mushroom Family.
Let’s begin the festival by grounding into your body and intention. What does rewild mean to you? Yoga to settle in and prepare for the days ahead. This time of year is known for the ripening of fruits, veggies, and the blooming of flowers, a sign that nature is generous and wild at heart. This time of year invites you to explore that same wildness within yourself. Break free from old stories, to trust the wisdom of your gut, to awaken the hero within, and to reclaim your fire and adventure. Let the wild one in you take the first step into the unknown.
Bring your mat, water, and any comforts for your practice. We may have limited mats available for those who do not have them on a first come first served basis.
