DENVER (April 2, 2026) - Team Player Productions, the team behind some of Denver's most beloved neighborhood celebrations, including the Tennyson Street Fair, which drew 28,000 attendees last year, and Highlands Oktoberfest, is bringing a brand-new event to one of the city's most dynamic districts. The inaugural RiNo Street Fair will take place on Saturday, May 9, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. along Larimer Street between 28th and 31st Streets. This event is free to attend.
Industrial-powerhouse-turned-artistic-destination, RiNo has been shaped over the past 20+ years by the local makers who transformed it into one of Denver's most vibrant creative hubs. The RiNo Street Fair is a chance to experience that spirit firsthand—browsing handmade goods from over 100 local artisans, taking in live music throughout the day, and soaking up the unmistakable energy that makes this neighborhood unlike anywhere else in the city.
The RiNo Street Fair’s bar program will feature craft pours from some of RiNo’s best breweries, including Ratio Beerworks, Our Mutual Friend, Bierstadt Lagerhaus, and Odell Brewing. In a nod to the community, bar tips collected throughout the event will directly support the RiNo Art District.
The fun doesn't stop there. Doubles Club, a new business making its home in RiNo this year, will host a pickleball pop-up, while Denver institution Wax Trax will be on-site with a popup DJ spinning throughout the day.
“RiNo has always been a neighborhood built by creative people for creative people, and this street fair is our way of honoring that legacy," says Ellie Hixenbaugh, Event Director "We've had the privilege of producing events that bring communities together across Denver, and we couldn't be more excited to finally bring that same energy to RiNo. This is a celebration of the artists, makers, and businesses that have made this neighborhood what it is."
The RiNo Street Fair is free and open to the public. Additional programming and announcements are still to come.
