around Denver
The Denver International Airport is a major hub and one of the busiest airports in the United States. We recommend planning ahead. There are many ground transportation options to get you to the conference hotel.
We recommend taking the light rail downtown. You’ll ride to the last stop, which is Union Station. From there, you can take a short Uber to 1550 Court Pl where the hotel is located.
If you’ll be driving, the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel has an on-site parking garage that offers daily rates. There are also other nearby parking options. We recommend using parking apps like SpotHero to book a convenient spot in advance.
Once you’re here, there are numerous ways to explore the city.
Walking
There are many areas worth exploring around the hotel.
Light rail & buses
Denver RTD offers travel between the airport and downtown, as well as lines away from the city center if you’d like to explore.
Bike, scooters, or pedicabs
Scooters and electric bikes are available for rent, and pedicabs are another convenient option.
A note about
preparations
Weather
The average daily high temperature in Denver is a mild 86 degrees Fahrenheit. In summer, Denver offers a perfect combination of warm, sunny days followed by cool evenings where a light jacket or sweater is often welcome.
Altitude affects
Denver is exactly 5,280 feet above sea level—one mile high. In Denver's rarified air, golf balls go 10% farther (yay) but so does alcohol (oof). Alcoholic drinks pack more of a punch than at lower altitudes, so please drink responsibly and follow these additional recommendations:
Drink more water than normal
Before your trip to Denver, and while you are here, drinking plenty of water is the number one way to help your body adjust and avoid altitude sickness.
Eat foods high in potassium
It’s important to eat foods that help replenish electrolytes by balancing salt intake. Think foods such as broccoli, bananas, avocado, cantaloupe, celery, greens, bran, chocolate, granola, dates, dried fruit, potatoes, and tomatoes.
Prepare for sun and humidity
There's 25% less protection from the sun in Denver, so sunscreen is a must. Denver receives over 300 days of sunshine each year (more than San Diego or Miami). Bring sunglasses, sunscreen, and protect your lips and skin with moisturizers.
