St. Patrick’s Day in Denver. March 17 might be the official St. Patrick’s Day – but there is a lot of celebrating in Denver to do before then! The FREE parade is Saturday, March 11 through downtown. While you’re enjoying the parade downtown, stop by the Dairy Block for food, drink, and entertainment! Olde Town Arvada will host a festival on Saturday, March 11 from 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. with vendors, food trucks and a kids zone as well as entertainment. Three Kilts Tavern will have the Wick School of Dance and specials to celebrate on March 11. If you’re not feeling any of this festivity you can always swing by Mcdonald’s and get your Shamrock shake. Don’t miss our family-friendly guide to St. Patrick’s Day in Denver.

Denver Restaurant Week. I usually have a pretty tight budget and we don’t go out to eat too much. But I do love Denver Restaurant Week. That is the time I get to try restaurants that I would not normally go to. They have special deals at Denver’s Top Restaurants with menus at a tiered level of $24, $34, or $45 per person. The week is March 3-12, but many restaurants taking reservations now.
Kohl’s Sale. Kohl’s is having their annual sale with items 85% off and some as low as under $2! Plus, if you are a cardholder you can get an additional 30% off.
