Denver’s Memorial Day weekend art fair in Central Park
Browse hundreds of artists at Denver Arts Festival in Central Park, with food trucks and live entertainment for an easy city weekend between lake walks.
Event details
Spend Memorial Day weekend at the Denver Arts Festival, where Conservatory Green at Central Park becomes an open-air gallery. You will find more than 150 local and national artists presenting fine art and high-quality craft, with room to browse at your own pace.
Plan to walk the rows early, then circle back for a closer look at the pieces that hold your attention. The setting stays part of the appeal, with wide lawns, park views, and nearby community lakes that make it easy to turn your visit into an afternoon out.
Beyond the booths, you can catch live performances throughout the day, including the Denver Concert Band, the Dotsero Band, and Spinphony. When you need a break, local food trucks cover a range of options, and the festival layout keeps stages and vendors within easy reach.
If you are traveling, look to Central Park or RiNo for modern hotels and strong dinner plans, or book a rental elsewhere in Denver. You can also search Lake.com for regional stays near the water. The festival runs rain or shine, so if a shower moves through, you can wait it out under the artist tents. Arrive by 10:00 AM Saturday for the fullest selection, park free near 8304 E. 49th Place, wear light layers, bring a sealed water bottle, and leave pets at home. Admission is free, and accessible pathways make it straightforward to navigate the grounds.
