Things to Do in Denver This Week: November 12–16, 2025

Your Complete Local Guide to Fall Fun, Art, and Culture

November in Denver is one of those months that perfectly captures why we love calling this city home. The leaves might be falling, but the energy is anything but quiet. Between Denver Arts Week, live music, markets, and cozy dining spots, the Mile High City is buzzing with things to do — and it’s the perfect time to explore neighborhoods, discover local favorites, and fall in love with Denver all over again.

Whether you already live here or you’re thinking about making a move, here’s your guide to the best events happening around town this week.

Wednesday, November 12 – Live Music & Local Vibes

Start your week strong with a truly unforgettable Denver experience: Burna Boy at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. The music, the lights, and that backdrop — it’s the kind of evening that reminds us why Red Rocks is world-famous.

If you’re in the mood for something more low-key, Fiction Beer Company in Park Hill is hosting their Vinyl Night from 5–8 PM — a relaxed, local hangout that perfectly pairs craft beer with community.

Realtor Tip: For buyers curious about neighborhood character, highlight how easy it is to enjoy these kinds of evenings just minutes from home.

Thursday, November 13 – Downtown Energy

The Colorado Convention Center will be alive this week with events like the Audio Video Expo — a great excuse to spend time downtown. Wrap up your workday with dinner in LoHi or RiNo, two neighborhoods where you can see how Denver perfectly blends modern living with a lively restaurant scene.

Realtor Tip: Downtown living isn’t just convenient — it’s a lifestyle filled with art, entertainment, and incredible food.

Friday, November 14 – Denver Arts Week in Full Swing

As Denver Arts Week continues, the city’s galleries, museums, and creative spaces will open their doors for artist talks and late-night events. Stroll through the Santa Fe Arts District, explore RiNo’s murals and installations, or check out a new exhibit at the Denver Art Museum.

Afterward, grab drinks with friends at 54Thirty Rooftop or Union Station to soak in those downtown views.

Realtor Tip: When showcasing a home, don’t just talk about bedrooms and bathrooms — paint the picture of what a Friday night looks like here.

Saturday, November 15 – Brunch, Markets & Neighborhood Charm

Saturday mornings are for exploring — and Denver’s Cherry Creek, Uptown, and Central Park neighborhoods shine this time of year. Grab brunch at local favorites like Safta or Fox & Hen, stroll through boutiques, or visit a fall market filled with artisan goods.

With the weather still crisp and clear, it’s also a great day for open houses or neighborhood walks.

Realtor Tip: This is the perfect opportunity to help buyers “feel” the rhythm of a neighborhood — from brunch to boutiques to parks.

Sunday, November 16 – Relax & Recharge

Round out the week with a slow morning — maybe coffee at Potager Café or Jovanina’s Sotto Voce, followed by a walk along the South Platte River Trail.

As Denver Arts Week wraps up, check out one of the final exhibits or performances before the holiday season kicks in.

Realtor Tip: Sundays are ideal for helping clients envision what “home” feels like — easy mornings, sunshine, and nearby coffee shops.

Living the Denver Lifestyle

What makes Denver special isn’t just the homes — it’s the life that happens around them. From concerts at Red Rocks to Sunday coffee runs, there’s always something new to experience.
