Colorado Oldtime Fiddlers’ Association

Welcome! The Colorado Oldtime Fiddlers’ Association (COTFA) is dedicated to promoting and preserving the traditional American art form of old-time fiddling. We sponsor and support fiddle contests across Colorado, including the Colorado Fiddle Championships; provide fiddle and guitar workshops; sponsor square dances; hold jam sessions; and support community outreach programs, including the El Sistema music program.

We are thrilled to be back at the National Western Stock Show for the Annual Colorado Fiddle Championships, January 11 & 12, 2025!

CFC 2025 pre-registration will open October 1, 2024. If you have any questions, please reach out to Erin at [email protected].

Please help support fiddling in Colorado by becoming a member!

 You can donate year round through Colorado Gives.
