Tour de Corgi is exactly what it sounds like: hundreds of corgis, many in costume, gathering in Civic Center Park and parading through Old Town Fort Collins. The 2026 edition is Saturday, Oct. 3. Registration and vendor booths open at 9 a.m., the costume contest starts at 10 a.m., the parade steps off at noon and everything wraps by 2 p.m.
Spectators watch for free, and organizers suggest a $5 donation via Venmo or PayPal. Adults who want to walk in the parade or enter the costume contest need a wristband, sold on site along with shirts and stickers. Contest categories include Completely Creative, Purdiest, Baddest to the Bone, Funniest Furry, Greatest Group and Best Cosmic Corgi.
Know before you go
- Civic Center Park, Fort Collins; downtown parking garages are the easiest bet.
- The parade route runs through Old Town, so the sidewalks along the route are the best free seats.
