Headed to the Denver DerbyParty on Saturday? Use these #UberProTips to make getting to and from Sculpture Park a sure bet:

  • Give yourself extra time.
    Heavy traffic downtown may lead to higher-than-expected ETAs.
  • Request to be picked up or dropped off at our Uber Dedicated Pickup/Dropoff Location.
    There will be Uber signs and a tent on the corner of 14th & Champa. Check out our pickup zone below.
  • Make sure your pickup location matches where you actually want to be picked up.
    Drop your pin at your exact pickup location so your driver knows where to find you.

MAKE IT A WINNING PICK UP

After a few mint juleps, the evening might get blurry. Keep your ride crystal clear by following these steps:

  • Confirm your driver. Call your driver if needed, and double check his or her name and license plate number before you hop in.
  • No IOUs. Fare split your ride with friends and pay just a fraction of the total cost. We’ll even do the math for you!

KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT

Our goal is to provide you with a reliable ride when you need one, but sometimes we see such high demand that the number of available cars gets tight. During this time, dynamic pricing will automatically go into effect to encourage more driver-partners to get out on the road. As demand decreases and more cars free up, the rates will go back to normal.

SO HOW DOES DYNAMIC PRICING WORK?

Dynamic (or surge) pricing helps Uber stay reliable. You’ll always be notified in BIG, BOLD print if dynamic pricing is in effect. The dynamic confirmation screen requires you to type in the multiplier to ensure you know what to expect.

NO SURPRISES

Use the Fare Quote option in the Uber app to estimate your fare before you make your request. If dynamic pricing is in effect, your fare quote will always take the current rates into account.

uberPOOL TO SHARE A RIDE AND CUT THE COST

uberPOOL will match you with other riders headed in the same direction. Rates are guaranteed to be $5 for trips that start and end in the downtown area. uberPOOL can allow for up to two riders per trip.

SHARE THE UBER LOVE

RIDE WITH YOUR WHOLE CREW

  • Riding with a total of up to 4 passengers? Request uberX or UberSELECT.
