The Colorado Old Time Fiddlers’ Association (COTFA) is dedicated to fiddling of all kinds, with a special emphasis on Texas-style fiddling.

The first recorded fiddle contest was held almost 300 years ago! Since the first recorded contest in 1736, fiddlers have come from far and wide to participate in these special gatherings. Many competitors sought the prestige of being crowned champion, and some came in pursuit of the cash prizes, but those weren’t the only reasons fiddle contests drew hundreds of attendees. For audiences, fiddle contests offered unbeatable entertainment. For fiddlers, contests were a unique chance to connect with musical peers and trade tunes from different regions.

This delightful show features the lovable critters from the famous Great American Petting Farm. A funny and educational animal entertainment show that features goats, sheep, and llamas performing with the infamous trouble-making spotted donkey, Fiona-No-No. Hosted by one of the “Zoo Crew,” the show includes animal behavior and antics accompanied by fascinating facts and stories about each type of animal.

Dive into the dynamic world of agriculture with hands-on, interactive lessons at CSU Ag Adventure.
