Every Labor Day weekend, Taste of Colorado transforms Civic Center Park into Colorado's largest food festival. Over 500,000 people descend on downtown Denver across four days to sample from 50+ restaurants, enjoy live music on multiple stages, and celebrate the unofficial end of summer.
The festival showcases the diversity of Colorado's culinary scene. From classic state fair foods to upscale restaurant tastings, food trucks to ethnic cuisines, there's something for every palate. Many restaurants offer sample-sized portions so you can taste widely without filling up on one dish.
Beyond food, the event features national and local music acts performing continuously, art vendors, family activities, and a carnival area. Admission to the festival grounds is free - you pay for food and drinks as you go.
