Denver celebrates new years eve in fine style, and they will be welcoming 2024 with the return of their fabulous new year party on the 16th Street Mall, with 2 fireworks shows, the first at 9pm then another at midnight, each lasting around 8 minutes, along with live music and entertainment throughout the evening.

What makes the NYE party in Denver even better is that this is a free event, organised by the Downtown Denver Partnership, and represents a great opportunity for the city's citizens to come together for a fantastic new year celebration.

Elsewhere across Denver there is live music aplenty, with several big concerts taking place in a city that loves to sing and dance their way into the new year.

16th Street Mall Downtown Denver Party

(TBC) The fireworks for NYE in Denver and the biggest party in Denver is of course the party on the 16th Street Mall which attracts a crowd of up to 100,000 so if this is where you're heading for your new year celebration then we recommend you allow yourself plenty time to get there good and early and secure a decent vantage point as it will be very crowded from early in the evening.

The best viewing spots are to be had by standing along the 16th Street Mall. There will again be 2 fireworks shows, a family friendly blast at 9pm followed by the main display at midnight. Both will be accompanied by live music from DJs located along the mall, to give an awesome audio-visual experience.

Downtown Denver Rink

Throughout the festive season there is also ice skating available at Denver's very own ice rink  - the Denver Downtown Rink is located this year at Skyline Park and is open from late November right through until February.

Skating is free but if you need to hire skates they're available to rent.

New Years Eve Hotels

Denver has a wide range of accommodation to suit most budgets, and many are very well located for the new years parties and entertainment, with several hotels also hosting their own new year parties if you want to be able to avoid having to head out in the cold weather!

We recommend you check the party details with the venue in advance before booking, and also see what packages are available over the festive months. The Westin Hotel in Westminster is one in particular that's always worth checking out, as they host their annual NYE Black Tie Party.

You can check out availability and make your online reservations for all of the top Denver new year hotels here.

NYE Live Stream

There isn't much in the way of TV coverage, but there are a few decent streaming webcam options including live cam views of downtown Denver, well positioned for a front row view of the fireworks:
