General Information

WWW Boot: Celebrating CommuntiyWESTERN WELCOME WEEK, INC. is a stand alone 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that provides an annual community celebration in the greater Littleton area. Western Welcome Week began in the late 1920s, and has been held every year since (limited in 2020 due to the pandemic). Western Welcome Week includes over 30 events, produced by over 20 organizations, benefiting dozens of local civic and charitable organizations. Western Welcome Week relies on support through ticket sales, vendor fees, event entry fees, private donations, individual and corporate sponsorships.

Western Welcome Week is not a department of the City of Littleton nor of South Suburban Parks and Recreation District (both of which are valued Community Partners), nor any other organization. Without the support of the community and gracious sponsors, Western Welcome Week would not be able to continue.

We love volunteersVolunteerism and support from the business community are what make Western Welcome Week a success year after year.
