THANK YOU TO OUR 2026 SPONSORS
A huge thank you to the sponsors who help bring Frozen Dead Guy Days to life. Your support keeps the tradition going and the festivities frozen in the best way.
LOCAL SPONSOR HIGHLIGHTS
Frozen Dead Guy Days may draw visitors from across the country, but its heart has always been local. Many of the weekend’s most memorable moments are made possible by Estes Park businesses and neighbors who generously donate their time, talent, and products to help bring the festivities to life. Their contributions keep the event rooted in community spirit while welcoming guests from far and wide. This section celebrates the local partners who help make the wonderfully weird magic of Frozen Dead Guy Days possible.
Sponsor Spotlight: The Barrel
The Frozen Dead Guy Days Bar Crawl wouldn’t happen without the team at The Barrel. Led by owners Ingrid and Lou, the beloved Estes Park gathering spot helps organize and rally local bars and breweries to bring the crawl to life each year. They even create the event’s collectible black tin Bar Crawl cups, etched with Frozen Dead Guy Days branding, part souvenir, part badge of honor for those who take on the crawl. Their creativity, coordination, and deep love for the community help turn a simple night out into one of the weekend’s most spirited traditions.
Sponsor Spotlight: Munchin’ House
When the Frozen Dead Guy Days Ice Cream Eating Contest kicks off, you can thank Munchin’ House for keeping things deliciously cold. The local shop is donating 52 pints of ice cream, 208 scoops and nearly 50 pounds of frozen ambition, fueling one of the festival’s sweetest competitions. It’s a generous contribution that helps turn a quirky idea into a crowd-pleasing moment of fun. Support from hometown businesses like Munchin’ House is part of what keeps this nationally known festival proudly rooted in Estes Park.
Sponsor Spotlight: Aspen & Evergreen Gallery
Frozen Dead Guy Days isn’t just about quirky competitions and icy adventures, it’s also a celebration of creativity. Aspen & Evergreen Gallery is bringing the arts into the festival with the Dead of Winter Art Competition, showcasing original works inspired by winter, folklore, dark humor, and the wonderfully unexpected. Featuring talented local and regional artists, the exhibition highlights pieces that are just as imaginative and offbeat as the festival itself. By hosting the Artist Exhibition and Art Sale, Aspen & Evergreen Gallery helps weave the local arts community right into the heart of the Frozen Dead Guy Days experience.
Sponsor Spotlight: Lumpy Ridge Brewing Co.
When it comes to raising a glass to Frozen Dead Guy Days, Lumpy Ridge Brewing Co. leads the charge as the event’s Official Beer Partner. The Estes Park brewery goes above and beyond each year, helping craft and promote a special Frozen Dead Guy Days beer created just for the festival. It’s a fun way to bring the spirit of the event into every pour while celebrating the creativity of the local brewing community. Lumpy Ridge’s enthusiasm and ongoing support help keep this wonderfully weird weekend rooted in hometown pride.
