Frozen Dead Guy Days Returns To Nederland for 14th Year

Tim Wenger | March 1, 2015

Celebrating its 14th year in 2015, Nederland, Colorado’s Frozen Dead Guy Days is known as one of the most unique and quirky festivals in the country and continues to be a world-renowned spectacle. The home-grown frosty fest pays homage to Bredo Morstol who is frozen in a state of suspended animation and housed in a Tuff Shed on dry ice high above Nederland. Thousands of adventurous, life enthusiasts come annually to participate in and view the events along with local, national and international media and entertainment.

Colorado’s “most frigidly fun festival” features outrageous events like the “Blue Ball” with an interactive photo booth and lots of prizes for best costume, steampunk parade, themed coffin races, costumed polar plunge, ice turkey bowling, frozen T-shirt and brain freeze contests, human foosball, a parade of hearses and the frozen salmon toss. It all takes place amid an incredible free music festival featuring Colorado’s most talented acts in an eccentric cross between morbid and hilarious that permeates the weekend’s atmosphere.

In addition to more than a decade of media coverage around the world (including television shows from Japan, Belgium, Canada and Russia), Frozen Dead Guy Days has won the Governor’s Award for “Best Promotional Event in Colorado”, was named one of the “Top Five Winter Festivals in the Country” by Readers Digest, has donned the pages of the New York Times, Southwest Airlines’ Spirit magazine and made the “Top Ten lists” of Lonely Planet and Hotels.com in 2012. CNN has the event listed as one of the “Best Costumed Festivals in the Country” and the story of the Grandpa Bredo was featured on the Travel Channel’s, “Monumental Mysteries”.
