There are so many homeless people here along with people who have mental health issues and drug induced psychosis that I hate going to or near the park for any reason. The park it's self is beautiful and the Roman columns are great. The city does a good job of maintaining the park. It just seems to attract more than its fair share of homeless. Probably due to its proximity to both the Capitol building and the Denver City and County building.

Civic center park would be an excellent place for a family picnic or to sit about people watching if it weren't for so many shady characters hanging out. I get that Denver has a problem with homelessness but the amount of people hanging out there makes it an area to avoid. Denver needs to step it up and figure out how to assist those people. Rather than spending hundreds of thousands of tax payers dollars to bus them to shelters only to return them in the morning. A more permanent solution. Civic center could be a great place

A beautiful part of downtown Denver. A must see if your visiting. It also doubles as the perfect place for city events. I've been coming here since I was a child and it's always been well maintained and clean. Make sure to check out the Chinese zodiac sculptures, they're very creepy.

Here for the 420 rally in 2017. Really a beautiful park! The city seemed to set the rally up for failure by not putting trash receptacles throughout the park. There was only a handful back by the memorial where all the port a potties were. What do you expect if people do not have a place to put their trash? I had camera bags but no trash bags. I literally had to put food container waste in my backpack til I left the park and found a trash receptacle. It just seemed unorganized at best. Had a great time with all the people and got some great shots!

Civic Center Eats at Civic Center Park is a fun event. With 25 food trucks, it's hard to choose what's for lunch. And, while many people grab lunch-to-go and run back to their offices, it's much more relaxing to eat at the cafe tables that are set up all throughout the park.
