Springs Spree is an outdoor music festival in Colorado Springs, Colorado.[1] In addition to life music, the event also boasts a food truck competition, carnival-style rides and attractions, a civic village, a 5k run, and a beer garden.[2]

Public Relations

Springs Spree – specifically the 5k race – has partnered with Shield 616, a police gear supplier dedicated to improving community-law enforcement relations.[3][4] A controversy arose in 2015 as to whether or not Planned Parenthood could set up a booth at the festival.[5] The event also offers multiple opportunities to log volunteer hours.
