Bored on a budget? You’ve come to the right place! Mile High On The Cheap is the answer for Coloradans wanting to live large for less. Luckily, Denver has much to do and see for frugal families, bargain hunters, savvy seniors and anyone who’s limited on funds — festivals, concerts, movies, workshops, tours, sporting events and more. And, for weekend planners, we’ve done all the work for you…

Friendly Reminder: Double-Check Beforehand

Mile High On The Cheap thoroughly vets every item published and strives for 100% accuracy. However, details may change without notice or errors may occur.
As always, prices, hours and participating locations may vary.
Some events and activities may be canceled or postponed with little to no notice.
Please verify all deals and events with the business or venue, before ordering or making plans. 

 

Keep up with the latest deals, discounts and FREE events in the Denver/Boulder area by signing up for our daily e-newsletter. You can also follow us on Facebook and Twitter.

We can’t be everywhere, so if you know of any upcoming events or deals, send them to info@milehighonthecheap.com.

Even though we strive to keep our weekend round-up current, it’s possible some events may have changed or been canceled. Please double-check, before making your weekend plans.
