View all City Cast Denver episodes

Denver’s a cool place, full of cool things to do each and every month — and September is no exception. But how do you choose what to fill your calendar with when the Mile High has so much to offer? Host Bree Davies and newsletter editor Peyton Garcia each picked four awesome September events to share, and producer Olivia Jewell Love has the harrowing task of picking the official City Cast Denver “Maybe” for your month — as in “maybe” you’ll see us there! 


Here are links to all the events Bree and Peyton recommended:


Peyton’s Picks

  1. Art Drop Day, TODAY! (Citywide)
  2. CHOW in the Park, September 11 (City Park)
  3. Bugs and Brews, September 21 (Westminster)
  4. Denver Oktoberfest, September 22-24 (Ballpark)


Bree Picks

  1. Westwood Chile Fest, September 9 (Westwood)
  2. Pee Wee’s Big Adventure Screening, September 10 (Congress Park)
  3. High Plains Comedy Fest, September 21-23 (South Broadway)
  4. Far East Center Mid-Autumn Festival, September 30 (Westwood)


Peyton mentioned Mimi Luong — whose family started the Far East Center — and we interviewed her about Denver’s Lunar New Year celebration; she also talked about our interview with John Hinman, founder of CHOW (Culinary Hospitality Outreach Wellness).
