Last year, 50 gelato makers from across the globe came to Boulder for three days of creamy competition and summer-time indulgence. Now, for the second year, the Europe-hailing Gelato Festival America is back to bring two days and more than 13,500 pounds of gelato to Boulder.

The gelato tour will come to Colorado as one visit on an eight-stop tour hitting cities from Chicago to Los Angeles from August to October. In addition to featuring an array of creative and authentic flavors, this festival will offer guests the opportunity to vote for their favorite and even compere in a gelato eating contest.
