Now that you know what the MLB is promoting for this week, you may be wondering what is there to do outside the stadium?

If you’re not heading into Coors Field to see the events first hand, head over McGregor Square which is right across the street from the ballpark. McGregor Square has a large open seating courtyard where there will be a massive outdoor screen to show the All-Star Game, Home Run Derby, the Draft and more! 

If you’re interested in more of a bar to eat, drink, and be merry, head to Tom’s Watch Bar. They have so many TVs for you to be able to watch whatever you want during the All-Star Week! There are also plenty of other fantastic spots to hit up if you want to move around and get a full Denver restaurant experience throughout the week:

  • Jackon’s LoDo - 1520 20th St, Denver, CO 80202

  • Blake Street Tavern - 2301 Blake St, Denver, CO 80205

  • Cherry Cricket - 2220 Blake Street, Denver, CO 80205

  • Check out other fun sports bars on Blake, Market, and Larimer Street between 17th and 22nd!

Plus you should definitely check out Union Station and the Dairy Block which will be swarming with people the entire All-Star Week.
