Let's Talk Trends | PRE-EVENT RECEPTION | REVIVE + THRIVE

Join us Wednesday, August 26 for a lively pre-event reception celebrating downtown leadership, local partnerships, and the ideas shaping the future of Colorado’s commercial districts.

This special evening will feature Progressive Urban Management Associates (P.U.M.A.) and a preview of the 2026 Global Trends Report, offering a sneak-peek at the big ideas influencing downtowns, districts, and public spaces around the country—and how those trends are showing up right here in Colorado.

We’ll gather with BID, GID, city, and civic leaders for drinks, conversation, and a fun preview of the Revive + Thrive program. Expect fresh ideas, great people, and a chance to connect before a full day of learning and collaboration.

Come for the trends. Stay for the conversation. Leave with new ideas for what is possible in Denver’s districts and downtowns.
