History of Miners Jubilee
Miners Jubilee is a three-day celebration of Baker County’s gold mining heritage that has been held annually, in one form or another, since the late 1800s. Miners Jubilee is held on the third weekend of July in Baker City, Oregon.
This event brings the heritage and history of Baker County to life with a parade, vendors in the park, a food court, live music, sidewalk sales, mining demonstrations, and kids’ activities. Bronc riding on Friday night and bull riding on Saturday night round out a full weekend of events that draw family and class reunions to Baker City every year.
