2017 Denver People’s Fair Sat 6/3 & Sun 6/4 Civic Center Park

Since its inception in 1972, the People’s Fair has been a staple of Denver arts and culture as the largest community-based festival in Colorado! People’s Fair features an eclectic mix of national and local entertainment, live music, nearly 100 artists and hundreds of local food and craft vendors. A long-running Denver tradition, the 46-year-old event will open its doors in celebration of the local community and the creative instincts that have inspired the city for nearly a half a century.

There will also be over 30 other performances including bands, artists, drag shows and creative community entertainers. Visit https://peoplesfair.com/schedule/ for the full scheduled lineup!

Aside from music, there is a strong focus on community engagement and interactive programming, so the People’s Fair will offer events like free morning yoga hosted by Kindness Yoga and Art In The Park where attendees can enjoy an Infinite Monkey Theorem beverage and art instruction as they create their own painting. There will be countless lawn games, local community dance and theater groups, local food trucks, and a chance to get to know some of the most innovative upcoming local businesses.

This year’s People’s Fair sets the stage for a massive cultural showcase event that is uniquely Denver. The Denver People’s Fair is free to the public, however VIP tickets are on sale now for $20 that includes premium stage viewing, a shaded VIP lounge, two free drinks, a VIP bar, and separate VIP entrance all weekend.

Lifestyle | Newly Launched: Pearl's "Stay Up Saturdays"

What's up you ask? "Stay Up Saturdays" is a new dance night at a newly renovated venue in Capitol Hill. This bar/venue which has recently become Pearl’s has been a Denver staple and has a lot of history. It’s home to the longest running Motown night in Denver, has housed many musical talents spanning many genres, and continues to be the place to get your dance and drink on.

The newly revamped Pearl’s installed a state of the art sound system spanning its two rooms which each have different themes; one being a pub style neighborhood bar and the other a classic nightclub feel with an intimate dance floor. Pearl’s also offers one of the best happy hour drink specials in the area and has partnered with Benny Blanco’s pizza next door, delivering their entire menu fresh to Pearl’s until 9pm nightly.

Pearl’s Saturday nights will feature CRL CRRLL, as the new resident DJ for Ultra5280’s and Fasor Labs “Stay Up Saturdays”. CRL CRRLL has been making waves across the U.S. as a Red Bull Sound Select Artist in 2014 and an attendee of Red Bull Music Academy in Detroit. He’s recently launched FASORLab.com that will house productions and art projects featuring various artists from around the world as a way to bring these projects and events to life. “My first goal is to build a community of creatives and help them grow and accomplish their visions, and then to bring these acts that people haven't necessarily heard of to Denver.”

Between the sweet sound systems, CRL CRRLL as DJ, and the good food, drinks and dance moves, Pearl’s “Stay Up Saturdays” is a cool new addition to the neighborhood that has always been hip, Capitol Hill. “I’m here to bring the Denver community constant amazing Saturday vibes.” Come dance off the work week and make the weekend complete!
