Tickets are $10 per person to help cover the cost of drinks, snacks, and venue expenses. We believe ideas should be accessible to everyone, so please don’t let cost be a barrier — your presence and curiosity matter most.

TEDxBreckenridge Salons are intimate, community-driven events designed to spark conversation and connection around big ideas — right here in Summit County.
