What we saw today at PrideFest, Comic Con and beyond
It’s been a busy day in Denver, what with PrideFest and Comic Con happening at the same time.
Civic Center Park was mobbed for PrideFest, which featured a Dogs in Drag costume contest.
Meanwhile, at the Colorado Convention Center, humans were showing off costumes of their own at an equally mobbed Comic Con.
It’s also Juneteenth, and celebrations have been happening all day in Five Points.
Oh, and most adorably, there was a Bumblebee Jamboree at the Denver Botanic Gardens.
And it’s not over yet. PrideFest and Comic Con both continue tomorrow. Check back on our guide to PrideFestĀ and stay tuned to our Twitter, Facebook and InstagramĀ for more fun to come.
