Party Saturday, July 12th from 6:00 to 11:30 p.m. This night of

The Colorado Street

Bridge has been threatened numerous times in its one hundred year history, and

for the last 37 years, Pasadena Heritage has been its leading champion. To save

and restore this iconic structure, the organization conducted letter-writing

campaigns, constant lobbying and national publicity efforts. Pasadena

Heritage’s famous summer event on the spectacular span first highlighted the

need to repair it. After many years of effort, the Bridge was saved,

seismically upgraded and restored to its original grandeur – a feat that is

celebrated biennially when 4,000 people turn out for what has become a much

anticipated community event. Join us this year and become a part of the

tradition!

Don’t miss out on what

is sure to be one of Pasadena’s biggest summer bashes. Tickets are available in

advance at www.pasadenaheritage.org/Bridgetickets for $16 adults/ $8

kids, $14 adults/ $6 kids member pricing. Day of prices are $18 adults/ $9

kids.

Take the Metro Gold Line and then take the free ARTS Bus to the Bridge. Show your

Metro Tap Card to receive a free

commemorative event poster, featuring artwork by artist Kenton Nelson, while

supplies last.
