The Bluegrass Lounge - Olde Town · Olde Town Arvada
Each holiday season this Olde Town Arvada coffee and bourbon bar becomes NOEL, a family-friendly Christmas bar strung with roughly half a million lights and packed with holiday decorations, one of the area's longest running seasonal transformations. The calendar fills with karaoke nights, bingo and Wednesday Santa visits alongside the regular bar service. Order the signature When I Think About You I Touch My Elf, a holiday riff on the lounge's usual bourbon-forward drinks. The Bluegrass Lounge reopens as its everyday self once the pop-up calendar ends for the year.
The Arvada Tavern · Olde Town Arvada
Bernard's Tiki Room, reached through a phone booth inside this Olde Town Arvada tavern, becomes Sippin' Santa each winter, the tropical counterpart to the touring Miracle Bar Christmas program. The takeover runs from late November through December 31, layering holiday theming over the room's standing tiki bar identity and drink list. Find the phone booth inside the Tavern's main bar to reach the room, then let the regular tiki program carry a seasonal, wintry spin through the new year.
