Answer

Yes, but it is very limited. We HIGHLY recommend taking an Uber or Lyft ESPECIALLY if you are partaking in the open bar!

Travel

Train

Denver Airport Train to Union Station

The train is about $10 and takes 45 minutes from DIA to downtown Union Station. We would recommend this if you are staying near or in downtown as it is much cheaper than Uber/Lyft and has good security.

Travel Note

Areas To Stay

We would recommend staying near downtown Denver around the Lower Highlands, Jefferson Park, Lower Downtown, RINO, or Five Points areas. Please feel free to contact Joel or Abby if you want an opinion on locations or hotels.
