Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Sunday, November 9th, 2025.
Rise and shine, Boulder, and enjoy a perfect fall day as we dive into what’s happening around town. If you’re looking for things to do, whether you’re in the mood for music, arts, or fresh air, today is packed with options.
Tonight at the Macky Auditorium, the stage lights up at 6 p.m. for The Magic of Motown, bringing those legendary hits and soulful moves right here to Boulder. If you’re in the mood for a more intimate show, singer-songwriter Dean Johnson performs at the iconic Fox Theatre at 8 p.m., where only a handful of tickets are left. Over at the Dairy Arts Center, Viva Theater continues its run of Murder on the Orient Express, with a matinee at 2 p.m., so mystery fans should grab seats while they can. The Boulder Public Library also has a special event this afternoon from 2 to 4 p.m. in the Canyon Theater, perfect if you want to blend a little culture with your weekend.
Families and foodies should make their way to Growing Gardens for their Community Harvest Festival, featuring local food, live bluegrass music, face painting, and even a visit with the farm’s goats. There’s also Boulder Apple Fest running today, celebrating the city’s apple abundance with cider pressing, apple crafts, games, and live music.
Sports fans, it was a bittersweet weekend for Buffs football—the team fell to West Virginia, which means no bowl appearance this year, but there’s a bright spot in true freshman quarterback JuJu Lewis, who impressed during his debut. Meanwhile, the Buffs basketball team gave fans reason to cheer, surviving in overtime against Eastern Washington. And in high school soccer news, Boulder’s boys’ team finished their season after a hard-fought one-nil loss to Ralston Valley, but the future looks promising with a strong underclass squad.
On the civic front, Boulder police made headway in public safety, arresting a suspect in last week’s aggravated robbery and menacing case, giving the city a much-needed sense of relief. Meanwhile, last week’s local elections wrapped up with three incumbents returning to City Council and all local tax measures passing, ensuring continued funding for mental health, capital projects, and open space initiatives.
If you’re thinking about holiday shopping, local stores are ramping up for the season, and the new Hestra Gloves shop just opened downtown on Pearl Street, bringing Swedish craftsmanship right to your fingertips.
For those looking to get involved in the community, Cool Boulder is highlighting volunteer days and nature walks all month long, so whether it’s building wildlife habitat piles or joining in a lantern walk, there are plenty of ways to connect and give back.
Air travel is still facing some bumps, with several flights out of Denver canceled as the FAA continues to navigate staffing and funding challenges, so double-check your reservations if you’re airport-bound.
Finally, the Flatirons are putting on a spectacular sunrise this morning—live streams and local photographers are already capturing those sandstone peaks awash in November light.
This has been Boulder Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
