Welcome to the largest wild mushroom happening in North America, the 44th Annual Telluride Mushroom Festival! A plethora of events ranging from foray and mushroom ID sessions, to hands-on demonstrations, to lectures—all led by regionally-, nationally-, and internationally-known experts, (and we cannot forget the Parade!) there is plenty for everyone each and every day.

On this website, you can filter your search by events, venues, presenters, etc. Each year the Mushroom Festival features many wonderful presentations on “all things fungi.” Presentations on similar topics are grouped together at the same venue so that attendees interested will be able to spend more time learning and interacting, and less time walking between venues. See who else is interested in each event and interact with our extended Mushroom Family. See you soon!

All presentation in Transformation Studio are first come first serve. A line will be formed outside of Ah Haa for this presentation. There will be limited seats so please plan for a different event if this is full.

A growing cadre of writers and content providers are exploring the topic of psychedelic drugs, from reporting on the science to providing educational programming, from sharing personal stories to supplying advice. In this talk Eugenia will discuss the traps, both legal and moral, that writers encounter when covering contraband substances and the tools a journalist may employ to avoid those traps—tools which may be useful to anyone who is trying to evaluate claims, retreats, and other aspects of the psychedelic industry today.
