When visiting the state of Colorado, a stop over in Denver is something not to be missed. It is home to many year round events and is a great gateway city to the surrounding Rocky Mountains.
Denver is also known as the Mile High City due to it being exactly one mile, or 5,280 feet above sea level. Denver is also the host to the biggest Gay and Lesbian PrideFest in the United States of America and is also the host to the National Gay Rodeo Finals.
Events are hosted year round and some of the annual highlights are the Taste of Colorado, Capitol Hill People's Fair, Cherry Creek Arts Festival, City Park Festival of the Arts, Colorado Indian Market and Southwest Showcase, Cinco de Mayo Festival, National Western Stock Show and last but not least the Great American Beer Festival offering over 1,600 beers from 300 or more breweries from all across the United States.
