Things To Do
Colorado Rockies Baseball
The Rockies will have games Saturday and Sunday after the wedding. Tickets are affordable, and the vibe is great for families. Saturday's game is a Star Wars beach towel giveaway, and Sunday's is a sun hat giveaway!
Colorado Shakespeare Festival
NOTE: Boulder requires a drive, but if you're planning to rent a car and want to take a day trip, we have plenty of recommendations for things to do in the area! Since 1958, The Colorado Shakespeare Festival has delighted audiences with professional productions of the bard's classic works. This year features MacBeth, with performances on both Saturday and Sunday after the wedding.
Coors Brewery Tour
Coors Brewing Company was founded in Denver just over 150 years ago. Tour reservations tend to sell out quickly because they are sold first-come, first-served. Bookings go on sale 25 days in advance; if you're considering booking a tour for July 20/21, we recommend checking their website on June 25/26.
Dinosaur Ridge
Dinosaur Ridge is one of the world's most famous sites for dinosaur fossils and tracks. There are over 250 dinosaur tracks, including a large triceratops print. This is a highly family-friendly attraction, including two special digging areas just for kids!
Elitch Gardens
Elitch Gardens is one of the oldest consecutively operating theme parks in the United States. Development in the area means this beloved theme/water park will move in the next few years, so now may be one of the last seasons to visit at the location that has housed the park since 1995.
Meow Wolf Denver | Convergence Station
To call Meow Wolf an "art museum" is a hilarious understatement. Denver's Convergence Station is a massive, immersive experience that includes interactive exhibits, whimsical roleplaying staff, and an optional storyline you can follow to uncover the world's mysterious lore. Sean and I have been several times and highly recommend it to visitors of all ages.
Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre
Red Rocks is a 9,500 seat open-air ampitheatre surrounded by massive, breathtaking sandstone formations and a beautiful hiking trail. Legendary acts like Jimi Hendrix, Diana Ross, Stevie Wonder, and more have graced its iconic stage. There is also a shuttle bus that runs to Red Rocks directly from Union Station. Whether you buy tickets to a concert, wake up early Saturday for Yoga on the Rocks, or simply enjoy the natural beauty on a day hike, Red Rocks never disappoints.
