1. Take them out for ice cream

Most residents of Denver agree that Little Man Ice Cream is the best ice cream shop in Denver, with creative homemade flavors you probably won’t find at other shops and a 28-foot-tall milk can for a building (we’re not kidding!).

Alternatively, here’s a helpful list of 16 other options throughout the city if you don’t feel like braving a super-long line for this date idea in Denver. If the weather is hot, your date is sure to be grateful for a refreshing treat.

2. Attend a free outdoor concert

Here’s a date idea in Denver that’s perfect for when the weather is warm, particularly during one of Colorado’s picturesque summers: attending an outdoor concert with your beau! You can find tons of free outdoor concerts at Levitt Pavilion from around June to October every year. So if you’re music lovers, you’ll definitely want to check at least a few of them out. You can expect to find plenty of food trucks at the concerts, too, so your dinner and a show will pretty much be covered in one fell swoop!

3. Plan a picnic for your beloved

Another awesome outdoor date idea is to put tons of effort into planning a beautiful picnic – complete with a picnic basket and a picnic blanket if you can swing it! You can plan to have your picnic in one of Denver’s many beautiful public parks, such as Berkeley Lake Park or Washington Park, for no cost beyond whatever food and beverages you buy for your feast.

Or you can rent a space of your own for a little bit more privacy, like this spacious rooftop event space with views of Denver’s RiNo Art District and of the mountains in the distance. Everything here is “centered around communal garden growing beds” and it’s “backed by trees along the north/east side”. Therefore, the best time to appreciate everything this venue has to offer is probably spring or summer.

To quote one reviewer who planned a birthday party here, “This place is AMAZING! Perfect venue for private party, views are incredible, ambiance is on point and Jaye is incredibly helpful and so so kind. I will absolutely be renting this space again!”
