Over the past year, Keystone’s River Run Village has been relatively quiet and dormant save for the ski season and a handful of comedy shows. Event organizers held regular meetings to collaborate on the future of festivals in Summit County amid the pandemic and shifting health regulations. Now, the conversations have paid off with a full slate of summer activation for the ski resort.
“I’ve been describing it as drinking from the fire hose,” said Maja Russer, director of events and marketing for Keystone Neighbourhood Co., which produces festivals for Keystone.
Russer was optimistic and began planning out the summer a little before the county entered level green. She was able to rehire her entire staff of four full-time event professionals to carefully dip their toes back into the water with the mantra of “community, simplicity and safety.”

Beer gardens will be brimming throughout July with pubs readying themselves for a month-long festival.
The Norwich Pub Festival will see more than 100 pubs and breweries throwing open their doors with one-off events and newly-launched ales.
The Rose Inn in Queens Road is one of the pubs taking part in the July festival with landlady Dawn Hopkins saying: It feels like Norwich is back in business.
