Green Meetings & Conventions
Denver is a "natural" fit for green meetings and events.
The city of Denver is dedicated to sustainable development and ecologically-friendly practices that will help us develop a green Denver as well as green meetings. During his time as mayor, Governor John Hickenlooper realized the importance of sustainability and developed Greenprint Denver, a program that provides leadership and solutions to ensure a prosperous community where people and nature thrive. Natural beauty surrounds us daily and we care about the environment.
Green is here to stay. VISIT DENVER has all of the tools, a sustainable convention center, eco-friendly transportation and other resources to assist planners in implementing green practices, reducing, reusing, recycling, and giving back.
