Things To Do In Denver This Weekend — October 16 – 18

We are searching for fresh new talent — both traditional and non-traditional, ages 6 – 65, with confident personalities and strong runway presence and walk performance to join the DFW Spring/Summer 2027 runway shows. 

Sammy Virji’s buoyant UK garage puts rhythm first: shuffling drums, rolling bass and enough bounce to keep the steps moving. His Friday Red Rocks bill includes Confidence Man performing a DJ set, Oppidan and Sam Alfred.

Afrojack brings his CONTROL event to Mission Ballroom with Tiga, GLZ, and RC3. The Dutch producer’s festival-sized dance sound makes this an option for anyone ready to turn Friday into a full night on the floor. 

Chief Keef brings the sound that helped push Chicago drill into the mainstream to the Fillmore. His spare hooks, blunt delivery, and bass-heavy production make this a Saturday pick for rap fans who want a crowd-driven night.

Sammy Rae & The Friends make room for funk, soul, jazz, and classic-rock influences without losing the feeling of a band throwing a party with its audience. 

Sunday’s biggest-room option brings Gorillaz to Ball Arena on The Mountain Tour, with Little Simz and Deltron 3030 on the bill. Damon Albarn’s virtual band project has long made a home for alternative pop, hip-hop, and electronic music in the same universe.

Welcome to The Haunting, a Halloween cocktail pop-up from the team behind Miracle and Sippin’ Santa. Inspired by neighborhood haunted houses, glowing jack-o’-lanterns, late-night horror movies, and all the nostalgia of Halloween night, The Haunting is where spooky season gets a little strange.

We’re taking the party to the patio for a night under the moonlight, complete with specialty cocktails, dog tag engraving, a dog costume contest, and a few surprises we’re keeping under our hats. Dress your pup to impress, grab a drink, and let the good dogs out.

Wander the patch, pick out the perfect pumpkin, and pay at the ice cream window, and while you’re there, grab a scoop of Pumpkin Chip, Little Man’s seasonal fall flavor. 

Your $10 ticket includes: One small pumpkin to paint and decorate, all paint and decorating supplies, one well drink, house wine, beer, or mocktail of your choice

Where authentic Bavarian tradition meets high-altitude Colorado fun! Hosted proudly by the Bavarian Guild, we are bringing the unstoppable energy and heartfelt spirit of Munich’s legendary festival straight to the Rocky Mountains.

Step into the glamour and intrigue of the 1920s for an immersive evening of secrets, scandal, jazz, and mystery at Denver Union Station. Take on a character, uncover hidden motives, and see if you can solve the mystery.

Desert is the latest exhibition by Adán De La Garza, featuring four new land-based video works created over the course of eight years across seven U.S. states and two other countries.

Step into an intimate evening of music, elegance, and connection. Inspired by the salon concerts of Europe’s golden age, this curated experience brings you closer than ever to the power of the human voice.

Step inside a beautifully twisted world suspended somewhere between the living and the dead. Expect hauntingly crafted cocktails, immersive décor, unexpected details, skyline views, and an atmosphere designed to transport you beyond your wildest nightmares.

We fill the park to the BRIM with vintage and handmade clothing, jewelry, records, artwork, decor, food/drink, DJs, giveaways, and of course, beautiful park vibes.
