Four Mile Historic Park holds the oldest standing structure in Denver, and on summer nights it turns into a walk-through lantern festival. Bright Nights strings illuminated sculptures along the park’s paths after dark.
The 2026 run goes from July 18 into early October with a refreshed theme, set on the historic park grounds near Cherry Creek in southeast Denver. It is an evening, ticketed, walk-at-your-own-pace event; buy timed tickets ahead, since weekend slots sell first.
