FREIGHT

A family run effort, the restoration has been led by the Andersons, giving back 10% to local nonprofits. A passenger train still puffs by the window every afternoon. In the shadow of Mt. Elbert, Colorado’s highest fourteener, the depot holds over 200 people and includes an elegant courtyard, retrofitted Whiskey Lime lounge in an historic shed, and a conference room for workshops and intimate dinner parties. We’d love to host your next special event.
Weddings come in all shapes and sizes, let us customize your special day. Every wedding gets to work with our in house wedding coordinator.
The depot’s main hall can hold over 200 guests and our property includes a courtyard, versatile conference room, commercial kitchen, fire pits, and a retrofitted Whiskey Lime lounge in an historic shack. 

Our space is dog-friendly, people-friendly, and we’re lucky that every angle of Leadville is photogenic, surrounded by our state’s highest mountains. FREIGHT is accessible, located blocks from downtown and two hours from the Denver airport. Take a horse and carriage ride to the ceremony, invite guests to cross country ski to the venue, or a snowmobile as a getaway vehicle. With reliable winters and sunny summers, the possibilities are endless in Leadville.
We’re dedicated to serving you at every step of your wedding. It’s your celebration and our commitment. From planning drinks to decor, we are here to make each detail a memory. Our vendors are well-versed in our operations and ready to create elegant experiences. We believe that once you have the right venue, the rest falls into place.
