Did you know that Denver is the only city in the nation to pay its buskers? The Denver Theatre District sponsors professional musicians to set up and play music in Downtown Denver. 5280 Live schedules the performances around major events to ensure maximum exposure. This series is widely beneficial to both the artist and the patrons of Denver and will ultimately help brand Denver as one of the most arts supportive cities in the nation.
Performances occur in front of the DPAC on 14th St. and Curtis, at the Convention Center at 14th St. and Stout, and at various locations along the 16th Street Mall between Champa and Lawrence.
