Everything You Can Do in Denver This Weekend

As the Mile High continues to reopen slowly, some of our go-to summer favorites are making a comeback, but in a new way. Farmers markets are making their debut a little late, with this weekend bringing the new social-distancing friendly version of the popular Union Station market back in action. Denver Bazaar is also returning at Sloan’s Lake, and both are offering limited in-person shopping along with order-ahead options. Virtual events are continuing, too, if you’re not quite up for venturing out yet. Whether you’re into beer, wine, or cooking, there’s an event for you this weekend. If you do get out and about, make sure you wear a mask and practice social distancing whenever possible.
