The Hill Event Street

The Hill's outdoor event space can be found on Pennsylvania Ave. between 13th St. and the alleyway.

The Event Street serves as a unique venue that boasts a series of features which include; innovative street design that makes it easier to close the street for events, landscaping and street furnishings that connect the CU campus design. It also features the first Tivoli-lighting across a public street in Boulder - perfect for maintaining the ambiance of the setting sun over the flatirons and due to its convenient and central location on the Hill. The Event Street is easily accessible, with ample street parking surrounding the venue.
