Clear Creek Valley Park was filled with families enjoying live music, inflatable obstacle courses and balloon magic on Aug. 20 for the fifth-ever Arvada Days festival. The festivities lasted from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and the event was free to the public.
Arvada Days is funded by the city of Arvada along with a host of sponsors. The festival began in 2017 and is organized by the Arvada Festivals Commission.
The COVID-19 pandemic shuttered the 2020 event. It returned last year alongside the Ralston House .5k Endurance Challenge, which was not held this year.
