Welcome Nevada Delegates!
Denver is excited to be hosting the 2008 Democratic National Convention. Located at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, Denver is one of the fastest growing cities in America – and one of the most beautiful. More than 200 named mountain peaks can be seen from downtown Denver, including 32 that soar to 13,000 feet and above. As the largest city in a 600-mile radius, Denver is the cultural, shopping and entertainment capital of the Rocky Mountain West with the nation’s second largest performing arts center, two new art museums and a record six new sports stadiums for eight professional teams. The Mile High City is blessed with 300 days of sunshine a year and has the nation’s largest city park system with 850 miles of off-street bike trails and 90 golf courses.
With 300 days of annual sunshine, Denver and Colorado offer exciting pre/post opportunities for DNC attendees; special offers can be found here!
Denver offers hundreds of events throughout the year that showcase the foods, arts, culture and entertainment in the Mile High City.
Denver is quickly gaining a reputation for its innovative, young chefs and eclectic, diverse cuisine with a Western flair. There are more than 2000 restaurants in metro Denver.
