Munich Comes To Denver |
2100 Larimer Street (Ballpark Neighborhood) Denver, CO 80205 United States +1 303 685 8143 http://www.oktoberfestdenver.com |
When it comes to the great German celebration, Denver bends the rules a bit. Instead of having Oktoberfest in the traditional month, organizers opted for the middle weeks of September, due to the occasional snowstorms that bury Denver in October. The festival transforms Larimer Square into a German village and brings out the polka bands, cooks up the wurst and pours plenty of beer. Kids can have fun in a castle maze that winds through the streets and even march in the 'world's shortest parade'. Admission is free. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Christmas Cheer at the Mall |
Larimer Square 1400 Larimer Street Denver, CO 80205 United States +1 303 685 8143 http://www.larimersquare.com/ |
Winterfest lasts from late November until after the New Year. In the evening at Larimer Square, the scent of roasting chestnuts wafts through the air while strolling carolers sing favorite Christmas tunes under strings of festive lights, creating a classic holiday atmosphere, especially when the snow is falling. Even Santa Claus makes an appearance. Most of the entertainment involves local groups either from high schools and churches. Winterfest is guaranteed to put any Scrooge in the Christmas spirit.
