TransportationEven though Boulder is surrounded by

wilderness, mountains and natural beauty, the

town is just 30 minutes from Denver and 45

minutes from Denver International Airport.

And the drive is a scenic one! Your group’s first

impression of Boulder may well be the scenic

overlook from the Boulder Turnpike from

Denver, a memorable panorama, to be sure.

Once in town, Boulder’s compact downtown,

reliable transportation providers and a great

public transportation system also keep logistics

simple. In fact, if you’re hosting a meeting or

event in downtown Boulder, your transportation

needs may be minimal — it’s all walkable and

worth exploring on foot. Bike shop rentals and

our public rent-by-the-hour B-Cycle stations also

allow attendees to get around as the locals do.

(Boulder is ranked third in Bicycle Magazine’s

America’s Best Bike Cities.)

For times when you do need a bit of help

with transportation, we’ll point you to

the right pros who know ins and outs of

navigating Boulder’s roadways and parking.

Don’t hesitate to ask, and we’ll connect

you with all the transportation resources

you need. Contact us at 303.938.2089 or

[email protected] for free

Unique Meeting VenuesBoulder’s venues are a natural extension of

the city’s celebrated creative side — one that

easily translates to stunning, original spaces

with flexibility to spare.

Choose from spectacular historic venues

at the wildflower-carpeted doorstep of

the Rocky Mountains, vibrant properties

that marry Boulder’s eco-conscious values

with great meeting amenities, or high-end

downtown sites with Boulder’s trademark

Flatirons views.

One of the benefits of having a meeting

or event in Boulder is that the city boasts

meeting hotels and venues on par with those

in larger cities, yet without many of the

challenges that face big-city events. Boulder

has a close-knit, friendly feel and a proximity

to nature that attendees love. The city’s

venues often reflect that unique character

— without sacrificing any of the high-end

conveniences and functionality you expect.

Discover more Boulder meeting venues

on the following pages, or contact us at

303.938.2089 or [email protected]

for free assistance finding a venue that meets

all your needs.

Group DiningYour guests will only need one bite of their

meals to realize they’ve hit the culinary

jackpot in Boulder. Named “America’s

Foodiest Town” by Bon Appétit magazine,

Boulder is positively brimming with one-of-a-

kind restaurants, many with elegant private

rooms and mountain- view patios.

While Boulder is dotted with acclaimed

restaurants, the downtown area is gourmet

central, where highly rated restaurants line

the famous brick-paved, pedestrian Pearl

Street. Many of Boulder’s best restaurants

serve mouthwatering, farm-to-fork dishes

with ingredients sourced from fertile Boulder

Valley farmland.

Boulder’s well-established microbrewery industry

offers another unique option for group dining,

with an ever-growing number of brewpubs

pairing craft brews with delicious pub fare.

The city is also a trendsetter in the resurgent

cocktail movement, which means your guests

can mingle over delicious handcrafted cocktails

made with local spirits.

Check out the following pages for great

group dining spots in Boulder, or contact us at
