Full-service restaurant jobs are declining in Boulder because restaurants are closing due to added workforce cost strains and many of those that survive are trimming waitstaff, amounting to a loss of nearly 100 jobs between 2024 and 2025. That’s what restaurant owners told us would happen with the recent increase in the minimum wage, particularly for tipped workers, and they have been true to their word.

Throughout Boulder’s history, moments of uncertainty have often sparked reinvention. Our region has repeatedly demonstrated that resilience is not simply the ability to recover; it is the ability to adapt, collaborate and build something stronger for the future. That character is playing out today across Boulder’s economy.

Our Film Commission Roundtables are held several times a year to help shape our work plan and determine where we should focus our time and energy for the greatest impact on our creative community.

From July 1 through July 21, we invite you to complete the 2026 Member Survey and share your perspective on our programs, services, communications, events, advocacy efforts, and overall member experience.
