This free, two-day festival celebrates 16th Street as Denver's ultimate summer destination! We're turning up the volume and splashing sunshine across the entire mile-long stretch with energy and pure Denver vibes.

Join us as we kick off summer in the Mile High City The Denver Way —with activities spanning the entirety of 16th Street.

The mile-long public experience will feature IFSC Speed Climbing World Cup, live music, family zones, local artisans, sidewalk sales, a beer garden and food vendors – a celebration of 16th Street and all it means for our community.

Experience 16th Street like never before—this is summer, The Denver Way!

A special thank you to our Title Sponsor, PCL Construction. This event is proudly produced by the Downtown Denver Partnership in collaboration with the City and County of Denver, IFSC and Visit Denver.
