The Buskers, Brews, & BBQ competition is held at the Aurora Municipal Center, which is a progressive town just outside Denver, CO. We learned that a Busker is a street performer, and there were plenty at Buskers, Brews, & BBQ! Take a look at the performer perched high atop a pile of chairs! Did I mention beer? Yes, some of Colorado’s best were at the event too! Add that to championship BBQ and a live music stage, and you’ve pretty much got your Saturday planned!
