In 1926 Homestake Mining Company threw a party to celebrate 50 years of mining called the Golden Jubilee. In memory of that amazing event, we now organize the Gold Camp Jubilee. This festival celebrates our iconic golden history of mining and our amazing community.

Join us for the best fireworks show in the Black Hills over the impressive Open Cut with amazing echoes and booms. Enjoy vendors, live entertainment, family-friendly activities, music, food, history, and mining talks and events and the small-town charm of Historic Main Street!
