Boulder Star to be illuminated on Flagstaff Mountain in honor of Veterans Day

BOULDER — The City of Boulder and Boulder Chamber will celebrate the annual lighting of the Boulder Star on Flagstaff Mountain on Wednesday evening in honor of Veterans Day. 

The illumination celebration has been a local tradition since 1947.

“The Boulder Star is beloved by the community for its symbol of tradition, hope and honor,” Boulder Chamber CEO John Tayer said in a prepared statement. “It’s the tradition of holiday spirit, the sign of hope in difficult times, and honoring the service of our military veterans. The Boulder Chamber is proud to work with our City of Boulder partners to keep the Boulder Star glowing above our community, whatever it might symbolize to you and your family.”

The star-lighting ceremony will be live-streamed starting at 6 p.m. on Boulder Chamber’s YouTube channel.
