Denver venues line up May 4th Star Wars events across May 2 and 3
Denver’s may 4th star wars calendar starts before May 4, with events spread across Edgewater, Westminster, Golden, and east Denver on May 2 and May 3. For readers trying to pick one outing, the practical change is simple: the local options are already locked in, and they cover a library program, a brewery stop, a race, and another library event.
Edgewater Library on May 2
Star Wars Celebration at Edgewater Library is scheduled for Saturday, May 2, from 1 to 3 p.m. at 1800 Harlan Street in Edgewater, with members of the 501st Legion set to attend. That gives the day a more built-out public program than a typical themed meetup, and it is the earliest of the listed Denver-area stops.
Star Wars Day at Fiction Beer Company follows on Saturday, May 2, at 2 p.m. and runs through Sunday, May 3, at midnight at 7101 East Colfax Avenue. The brewery is releasing a black IPA called Maltering the Deal and limited edition glassware featuring the Cantina band, Figrin D’an and the Modal Nodes, with the glassware going on sale at noon Saturday while supplies last.
Fiction Beer Company on East Colfax
Fiction Beer Company’s event also includes flash-tattoos from Silverback Studios and snacks from Sam’s Crumb Cart. That mix turns the stop into more than a one-item release: beer, merch, tattoos, and food are all bundled into the same two-day window, which makes the Saturday launch the main draw for anyone who wants the limited glassware.
The timing creates the only real friction point in the weekend schedule: the library event ends at 3 p.m. on Saturday, but the brewery event starts at 2 p.m. the same day. Anyone trying to do both will need to choose between the opening stretch at Edgewater Library and the early hours at Fiction Beer Company, then decide whether to come back for the late-running portions.
Westminster and Golden Sunday
May the Fourth Be with You 5K starts Sunday, May 3, at 10 a.m. at Frolic Brewing in Westminster, 12910 Zuni Street, and it ends there too. Finishers get a free local craft brew, and wearers of Jedi or dark-side attire have a chance to win extra beer and prizes during post-race festivities all day Sunday.
May the Fourth be With You...a Day Early closes the list on Sunday, May 3, from 1 to 2:30 p.m. at Golden Library. For Denver-area readers, the value is in the spread: the weekend offers multiple ways to mark May the Fourth without waiting for Monday, and the earliest arrivals get first pick of the library program, the brewery glassware, and the race-day extras.
