Street Performances |
1400 Larimer St (Larimer Square) Denver, CO 80202 United States +1 303 295 1195 |
This wild event, a rollicking street festival, attracts odd talent from all over the world. Street entertainers gather on the 16th Street Mall and along the streets of Larimer Square to perform and amuse for three days. The acts include sword-swallowers, jugglers, clowns, magicians, tightrope walkers, singers and dancers. In traditional Busker-style, the hat is passed around after each performance, so bring your dollar bills to show your appreciation. All the surrounding restaurants and shops make for a full day of downtown entertainment. Review © 2007, Wcities |
