How we work
About Denver Buzz
An independent guide to going out in Denver, built on one idea: the know-how that makes any listing useful matters more than another listing.
What Denver Buzz publishes
Denver Buzz covers the going-out side of the city: culture, nightlife, free things to do, and the practical knowledge that sits underneath them. How to find out what is on. How to get there and home. What the local words mean. What to expect at the door.
We write evergreen guides on purpose. Event dates, opening hours and prices go stale within weeks, and stale information is worse than none. A guide that teaches you where to look stays useful for years.
If you are moving to Denver or choosing a neighborhood to live in, other resources will serve you better. We stick to going out.
Our standards
Accuracy over speed
We publish only what we can stand behind. When a detail changes often, we point you to the official source rather than repeat a number that will be wrong next month.
Free options first
Where a no-cost option exists, it leads. Spending money should be a choice, not the default.
Transit before parking
Every plan we suggest starts with how you will get there and home again safely.
Tips are checked, not copied
Reader tips are leads. We confirm them before anything changes on the page.
Corrections are welcome
If something here is wrong or out of date, tell us and we will fix it.
What we deliberately leave out
You will not find event calendars with dates, reviews of specific businesses, rankings, or quotes from people we have not spoken to. Those all need constant checking and reporting to stay honest, and we would rather publish less and keep it right.
Denver Buzz is an independent publication. It is not affiliated with the City and County of Denver, RTD, any cultural district, venue or ticket seller. Names of public places and agencies appear only so readers can find them.
About the photos
Photos on this site are illustrative. They show the kind of scene a guide describes, not a specific venue, event or person, and they should not be read as a record of a real place on a particular day.
How you can help
The best guides are fed by people who go out. If you know a free series, a habit newcomers miss, or a detail here that has changed, send us a tip. Start with the guides if you are new:
