This free, family-friendly event will transform Fillmore Plaza (between 1st and 2nd Avenues on Fillmore Street) into a winter wonderland with live ice carving, elves, temporary fire pits, face painting, complimentary treats and warm beverages, a live DJ, the Denver Police Department’s Mounted Patrol Unit, giveaways, photo stops for kids and furry friends, and more.
“Whether you’re spending the day with your grandkids, friends or just taking the dogs for a walk, Winter Fest is a perfect free, family-friendly community event that encourages visitors to experience the magic of winter outside, in Denver’s most walkable community, Cherry Creek North,” said Julie Underdahl, president and CEO of Cherry Creek North Business Improvement District.
In addition to the festive fun on Fillmore Plaza, businesses in the area will host free Winter Fest activities, such as ornament decorating and live entertainment. Click here for a full list of Cherry Creek North participants.
Shop, eat, stroll, socialize and spread the joy of the holidays in one of Denver’s most walkable and accessible shopping districts. Visitors can plan an entire winter Saturday outdoors or cozy up in one of the many unique retailers, restaurants and spas in the area.
The holidays are a busy time; it’s easy to park or valet once and walk the 16 blocks to everything Cherry Creek North has to offer. Many public parking garage options include $5 flat rates on weekends and evenings or valet opportunities at numerous locations throughout the area. Many small businesses offer free parking for customers, and visitors can also hail a free Eco-Ride USA cart at Moxy Denver Cherry Creek, which is offering free parking for the first 30 cars, and ride for free to their favorite local business in the area.
