Open Friday – Sunday through October 31st, Harvest Farm’s Fall Festival is a great way to get your dose of Fall Fun. Sometimes drinking pumpkin spice lattes every morning just won’t cut it. For only $15, you’ll have access to their 10-acre corn maze, hay wagon ride tour, PIG RACES (yes, we said pig races), a petting zoo, something called Goat City, and of course, pumpkins (not in latte form unfortunately). Stop by with your friends or family and take full advantage of this beautiful season!

So we all know it – Colorado just crushes it in the pro sports department. No matter what they say, don’t even listen to them – we’re the best! October brings us the regular season of the NHL. Go and support our boys of the Colorado Avalanche at one of their 4 home games at the Pepsi Center. You can get single tickets starting at $28! Plus everyone knows hockey games are the most fun to watch live – it’s sweater weather inside!

Looking for a fright? Uber has partnered with 13th Floor Productions – masterminds of the scariest haunted houses in the country. Starting on October 14th, take an Uber to one of their 2 haunted houses – The Asylum or 13th Floor – and redeem $3 off of your ticket. Present your Uber receipt when you arrive to redeem the discount. And be warned – you may be surprised how fast you move through the haunted houses, and heel and flip flops area the lost and found’s most popular items.

It’s not often that a Tony Award winner take’s their show on the road. Idina Menzel of Wicked, Rent, Frozen and “Glee” fame will be kicking off her IF/THEN tour in Denver during the second half of October.The New York Post called it a “fascinating, ambitious, and original new musical”. Get tickets now for as low at $49 and watch as Idina reprises her critically-acclaimed performance as Elizabeth. Idina is an American Treasure – take advantage before she heads back to her glamourous Broadway life.

We all know it – zombies are scary. But don’t worry, these aren’t real zombies (we checked). Join thousands of other zombie enthusiasts as they take to the streets of Denver on October 17th to scare the daylights out of unsuspecting tourists on the 16th Street Mall. It’s Denver’s best kept secret, and in our opinion, the best parade of the undead in the whole country. As an added bonus – maybe the zombie problem we have will help keep rent prices down. Dare to dream.

This wouldn’t be an accurate Colorado activity guide if it didn’t include some sort of physical activity (as much as we want to convince ourselves that getting lost in Harvest Farm’s corn maze is a physical activity). Join thousands of other runners for the 5K, 10K, Half and Full Marathon ending right in the middle of Denver at Civic Center Park. Even if you’re not the running type, you can join the fun for the concert. This year’s headliner- Matisyahu!

Free Day’s are the best, and these days they are few and far between. The Denver Museum of Nature and Science always pulls through by opening it’s doors to the public a few times a year. To make this trip even more special, stop by one of their many exhibits. If you’re in the mood for an education in the spooky, stop by The Power of Poison exhibit.

The 31st annual Boo at the Zoo is exactly what you’d expect from the title – 25 trick or treat stations, creepy crawly animal demonstrations and entertainment that will keep you and your kids entertained. Say hi to your favorite animals while enjoying the fall foliage and a cup of hot cider!
