The national notoriety of LoHi stems from the neighborhood’s cultural offerings that feature festivals, fairs, boutique shopping and art exhibits throughout the year, bringing a lively, upbeat and energetic livelihood to the neighborhood. Every summer the streets come alive with the LoHi Music Festival, which features live music, art and local beer selections in the heart of Denver’s Lower Highlands.

Today, this artistic haven is home to galleries, performing arts, dining and even free art events on a weekly basis throughout the year.
