There are fantastic pipe organs all across downtown Colorado Springs. This walking tour will take you to three of the city’s historic pipe organs, for miniature recitals, tours of the mechanical rooms, and food!

Starting at at First Congregational Church, you’ll have a chance to step inside the mechanism room of a pipe organ!

Then, we’ll walk across the street to Grace & St. Stephen’s Church for another miniature recital and some Q&A time with performers from the Organ Spectacular.

Finally, it’s a short walk to Shove Chapel for more organ playing and refreshments. This event is free for all Organ Spectacular XI ticket-holders.
