Your Guide to January in Denver (Plus, Our Top 7 Picks for the 2026 Stock Show)
Happy new year! We’re kicking off 2026 with our monthly guide to the best of Denver, with plenty of expert and hard-won tips and tricks for making the most of this Mile High life. City Cast producer Adrian González joins host Bree Davies and producer Paul Karolyi to talk about the coolest stuff going on this month. Plus, Paul’s got some personal tips for enjoying everything new at the Stock Show this year.
If you're new here, welcome! We’ve put together a starter pack for you, with episodes and articles to welcome you to the City Cast Denver community.
Paul would like to clarify that Red Robin’s corporate headquarters is not technically in Denver, but in fact in Greenwood Village. Adrian recommends these kintsugi workshops:
- Hoamsy Workshop hosted by pottery artist Alexis (two workshops in January)
- Ceramics in the City (no workshops in January but they offer them often)
- Kintsugi: Golden Mending at Breckenridge Ceramic Studio
