January Events We’re Excited About in Denver

January in Denver has a quieter, more intentional energy - and honestly, that’s kind of our favorite.

It’s a month for learning something new, meeting people without the chaos, and saying yes to experiences that feel a little different than your usual night out. Below are the January events we’d text a friend about - all local, all community-driven, and all very Denver.


Nightlife, Music & Late-Night Energy

January 17th, 2026 • Doors open at 6pm
Convergence Station, 1338 1st St

Strap on your boots and get ready to rocket into an interactive frontier celebration at Meow Wolf Convergence Station, Denver’s sprawling immersive art world that’s equal parts sci-fi and local creativity.

Space Rodeo riffs on frontier spirit with cocktails crafted for the adventurous, beats that echo through surreal landscapes, and installations you’ll still be talking about the next day.

Make sure to secure your spot here!

January 17th, 2026 • 1:30-7pm
Dairy Block, 1800 Wazee St

For Winter Wubzyland, local creatives, coffee lovers, and bass heads unite for art vendors, clever food, and a music lineup that transforms this historic micro-district into a community snippet of joy. Think LoDo energy turned way up, but still friendly enough to grab a cappuccino between beats.

Social & Creative Connection

January, 14th 2026 • 6-8pm
Poka Lola Social Club

Mid-January calls for meaningful connection - not crowded bars or loud music.

This cozy social at Poka Lola Social Club brings intention-setting with Vessels of Joy, permanent jewelry by La La Links, friendship activations, and mocktails crafted to remind you that good conversations don’t need alcohol. If Denver had a living room where everyone’s invited, this is it!

You can sign-up here!

January 25th, 2026 • 6-11pm
Spicy Librarian

Join author Emily Arden Wells for a cocktail class where you’ll learn two whiskey-based drinks, then bedazzle your signed copy of Eat Post Like with a glam kit.

This is the perfect fusion of local author power, playful creativity, and intentionally fun evening vibes. A mix of literature and libations that feels uniquely Denver.

Learning, Tasting & Sensory Experiences

January 10th, 2026 • 12-3pm
Two Moons Music Hall

Kick off Dry January at this book launch that’s about more than “no alcohol” - it’s about embracing delicious alternatives.

Ticket includes a copy of Everyday Elixirs, a crafted drink from the book, and entry to some seriously generous giveaways. Cool atmosphere, good people, and a shared curiosity about what our drinks can be when they’re thoughtful.

Make sure to secure your spot, you won’t want to miss this!

January 24th, 2026 • 7pm
Blanchard Family Wines, 1855 Blake St #120

This isn’t a “swirl and sip” - it’s an intentional deep dive into how acidity, sweetness, and tannins shape what you taste.

If you’ve ever wondered why some wines hit you one way and others another, this class gives you the language and the palate tools to understand it.

Perfect for curious folks who love sipping and thinking. Sign up here.

December 28th, 2025 • 2-4pm
Corvus Coffee Roaster, 5846 S Wadsworth Blvd

If coffee is your friend, and coffee brewing is about to be your hobby, this class is a gem.

Learn the Pulsar - a brewer that marries percolation with immersion - with guidance from a Corvus trainer. You’ll play with recipes somewhere between V60 and French Press, and leave tasting better coffee at home than some cafes near you.
