Saturday. Lafayette will be rolling in peaches during the 2010 Peach Festival. The day-long celebration salutes one of Colorado’s sweetest cash crops, the juicy peach, with peach pies, peach smoothies, peach cobblers and more. More than 30,000 pounds of fresh peaches will be trucked in from Palisade, too. Snag one and settle in for live music from Wendy Woo, The Informants and Triple Nickel. Kids’ entertainment includes Mr. Shine Music, Jim Jackson and Mary Sue and Cari, plus dance performances and face painting. Once you’ve had your fill of peaches, grab a snack at the farmer’s market or from a tasty food vendor. 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday. South Public Road between Kimbark and Cleveland Streets, Lafayette. Admission is free. For more information, visit lafayettecolorado.com.

Saturday. The Hill Flea isn’t your average flea market. It’s an “interactive marketplace and community edu-tainment playspace,” and it’s taking over the University Hill neighborhood of Boulder. Anchored by a good, old-fashioned flea market, the Hill Flea also features live entertainment and demonstrations. The day starts off with a free vinyasa yoga class with Corepower Yoga, followed by an afternoon of shopping. Take a break with storytelling, music and kid-friendly performances from the Boulder Fringe Festival. Grownups can also stop in at the Flea Tent for workshops on a variety of subjects from “Sustainable Weight Loss” to “Preparing Your Garden for Winter.” 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday. 13th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue, Boulder. Admission is free. Learn more at thehillflea.com.

Friday-Sunday. Engines are revving for the 23rd annual Gunnison Car Show. The mountain town will be overrun with super-cool vintage cars all weekend, starting with an old-school “cruise-in” tonight. Rockabilly group the Rev-Tones will rock out as the cars come into town. The show starts in earnest on Saturday morning, when the cars are on display and ready for judging — though anyone can stroll through and tour the cars. Sunday starts early, when the car show takes a “breakfast cruise” to nearby Crested Butte. Elk Avenue will be closed to traffic so car lovers can scope out the vehicles while the owners enjoy breakfast. 5-9 p.m. Friday, 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, 8 a.m. Sunday. Main Street, Gunnison, and Elk Avenue, Crested Butte. Admission is free. Visit gunnisoncarclub.com for more information.

Westminster City Park, 10475 Sheridan Blvd., Westminster. Admission is free. Visit westminsterfaire.com to learn more.

Friday-Sunday. Fort Collins will be rockin’ all weekend long for New West Fest, featuring the Bohemian Nights music festival.
