The Denver Gazette highlights the Latkes and Lights Hanukkah Celebration at the JCC Denver on South Dahlia, running late morning into early afternoon, with food, crafts, and family activities that make for a cozy, festive stop. Over at The Ramble Hotel in RiNo, their Holiday Bazaar brings cocktails with Santa and the ArtistTree market together, so listeners can sip, shop, and snag some very local gifts in one stylish spot. If you like your holidays a little offbeat, Audacious Immersive is putting on “Drunk Christmas,” a boozy, abbreviated riff on A Christmas Carol at Fiction Beer Company on East Colfax, mixing craft brews with Dickensian chaos. For music lovers, Mission Ballroom is hosting Wet Leg as part of Channel 93.3’s Not So Silent Night, according to AXS, and The Denver Gazette lists jazz, indie, and bluegrass options all over town tonight, from Nocturne Jazz and Supper Club to Swallow Hill.All week long, Visit Denver’s Mile High Holidays guide points to big, ongoing experiences. Camp Christmas has transformed Stanley Marketplace into a maximalist holiday playground, complete with themed pop-up bars, scavenger hunts, and the Camp Christmas Express walk-through, so listeners can wander from shop to sparkling spectacle in a single visit. Down on the Auraria Campus at the Tivoli Quad, the Mile High Drone Shows send 600 illuminated drones into the sky nightly at 7 p.m., creating animated holiday scenes you can see from all over downtown. The same area hosts the Mile High Tree, a 110‑foot immersive light-and-music installation paired with the Denver Christkindlmarket, where bratwurst, glühwein, and handmade ornaments keep things very old-world European.Cherry Creek’s Winter Wanderland, described by Visit Denver, wraps more than 600 trees in nearly a million lights and layers in Saturday Night Lights performances, the Cherry Creek Holiday Market, and the cozy Mistletoe Lounge pop-up bar for post-shopping drinks. For pure sparkle, Blossoms of Light at Denver Botanic Gardens, Luminova Holidays at Elitch Gardens, and the dazzling displays at Hudson Gardens all continue through the season, turning evening walks into full-on light adventures.The performing arts calendar is packed too. Denver Arts & Venues lists Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical and A Christmas Carol at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts, plus Colorado Ballet’s The Nutcracker at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House, all running through the month so listeners can pick a weeknight or weekend show.
