There has been a lot of buzz about “What to do in Denver during the DNC.” I’m actually astonished at all the query. Of course, when you plan a vacation, you research all things your destination has to offer. However when you attend a convention for business, do you really care? Aside, from knowing great restaurants that are in close proximity to your hotel room, I’m never in search of the largest ball of twine!
Yes, we would like Denver to shine and to showcase Colorado as the beautiful state that it is, so hey delegates, wake up, open your curtains and look West, I can guarantee you won’t get that view in New York! However, if you think you are going to have loads of time on your hands, then I suppose you should check out articles such as this one. But what I would really recommend is checking out sites that are giving you the latest and greatest on events surrounding the DNC, the parties to be at, the concerts at Red Rocks, the general buzz that is going to be in the city…that’s where you will get the best local flavor!

Thanks for the link to the Post’s Colorado Guide! There is much more that’s useful than the guide you linked to — if you’re out late and you’re looking for a place to grab a bite that’s still open, we have a list of all the Denver restaurants that are still open at this very minute. Not only that, it’s mobile-friendly, so if you access it on a mobile browser you’ll get a list you can see and use without much hassle (that’s at http://guide.denverpost.com/lists/category/food-drink/open/ , in case HTML gets stripped from comments).
There’s much more to explore at the Colorado Guide — written by folk who have lived and worked in Denver for years. Click my name to go to the Guide’s home page.
