Community Events
From parades to fireworks and tree lightings, Commerce City hosts several free and fun-filled annual family events that maintain our hometown feel and build on the sense of community shared by residents.
Memorial Day Parade (May 27, 2013)
Billed as the largest
Memorial Day Parade in the state, the event will celebrate its 49th year of honoring Colorado’s military veterans in 2013.
Neighborhood Outreaches (June 13 and August 8)
These neighborhood barbeques with live entertainment are a great way to meet new friends and learn more about services provided by the city and nonprofit organizations that serve the community.
FourthFest (July 4, 2013)
Safely enjoy the 4th of July with one of the state’s best fireworks displays at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. The free event features music, games, and fun for all ages and parking. Buy a ticket to enjoy the Colorado Rapids game or food and beverages.
Creepy Hollows and Teen Scene Halloween (October)
Young ghosts and goblins can trick-or-treat indoors, enjoy carnival games and prizes and haunted house at the Recreation Center’s daytime family event. Later that evening, teens take over the building with a Halloween-themed dance and activities guaranteed to be a scream.
Hometown Holidays (December)
Kick off the holiday season as city council members light a million lights at the civic center. Bring your child to visit St. Nick, enjoy carols and hot chocolate, games, and snacks.
