Labor Day Weekend 2022
Caveman Music Festival is set to be held at the Monument Lake Resort in Weston, CO over Labor Day weekend.
Caveman Music Festival is set to debut in 2022, where nearly 10,000 fans are expected to attend the three-day Americana Music festival. Americana Music is an amalgam of American music formed by the confluence of the shared and varied traditions that make up the musical ethos of the United States, specifically those sounds that are emerged from the Southern United States such as folk, gospel, blues, country, jazz, rhythm and blues, rock and roll, bluegrass, and other external influences.
Monument Lake Resort
The location of the festival crowns it all. The festival is held annually at the Monument Lake Resort. The resort isn’t your regular bed and breakfast lodging area. Located near the famous Sangre de Cristo Mountains, the resort provides scenic views, perfect for a barbeque afternoon while listening to your favorite band. Historic structures like the 250-feet sandstone and the fish hatchery surround the resort. This means your weekend won’t be all about seeing your favorite band or artist but exploring the resort’s gorgeous sceneries too.
Hiking
Avid hikers also have an opportunity to explore the long 368 acres of park-like terrain between Trinidad and La Veta. A day’s hike is the best way to explore the resort’s features and lead you up to local peaks like the Sangre de Cristo Mountains.
Boating
Guests can also explore Monument Lake by paddleboard, kayak, canoe, and if planning to bring friends, you can rent a pontoon that hosts up to 14 passengers.
Fishing
Attendees can fish Monument Lake by boat or shoreline. Monument Lake is a world class trout lake with browns and rainbows ranging up to 8 pounds in size.
Lodging
Guests have a range of options: cabins, lodge hotel rooms, tent and RV sites. Purchase a Super VIP and stay on the festival grounds in one of Monument Lake Resorts’ lodge rooms, cabins or RV sites. Primitive camping will also be available on site.
