===Annual events=== Baker City hosts many annual festivals, including the Miners' Jubilee on the third weekend of July, which celebrates the mining history of the area and the filming of the 1969 [[Lee Marvin]] and [[Clint Eastwood]] musical comedy ''[[Paint Your Wagon (film)|Paint Your Wagon]]'' in the city.<ref name="PYW_ref">{{cite web |url=http://www.movie-locations.com/filmarchive/p/paintyourwagon.html |title=Paint Your Wagon filming locations |publisher=The Worldwide Guide To Movie Locations |year=2006 |access-date=2007-08-08 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070430121817/http://movie-locations.com/filmarchive/p/paintyourwagon.html |archive-date=2007-04-30 }}</ref> The Miners' Jubilee was originally launched in 1934 as the Baker Mining Jubilee, but lapsed after 1941 because of [[World War II]] and a declining interest in mining. The event was revived by Richard and Marge Haynes in 1975. The couple organized the celebration for two years before handing it over to the Baker County Chamber of Commerce.<ref name="Jubi_ref">{{cite web|last=Collins |first=Chris |url=http://www.bakercityherald.com/news/results.cfm?story_no=814 |title=Celebrate 20 Years of Re-Jubilation |work=Baker City Herald |year=2001 |access-date=2007-08-08 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070928192013/http://www.bakercityherald.com/news/results.cfm?story_no=814 |archive-date=2007-09-28 |url-status=live }}</ref>
