With seven golf courses, a reservoir beach, hiking trails and a multi-use Sports Park, the city is a major hub of athletics and hometown to numerous pro football, basketball, hockey and soccer players and coaches. Aurora's emerging arts scene brings forth vibrant theater and visual arts to liven up the city.

We saw Ring of Fire in July 2017 at the Vintage Theater. We were mesmerized! The theater only seats 69 so the experience is very intimate. The production was professional and the singers - all of them - were incredibly talented. They had fun, the audience had fun, and we can highly recommend the experience. The theater sells snacks and alcohol and you can bring those purchased items into the theater area. There is free parking on the side. Seating is first-come, first-served and opens 30 minutes before the production begins. If your group is large you many be able to get assigned seats together. Often tickets sell out in advance so I'd advise purchasing them online at least a week before to avoid disappointment.

A space themed micro brewery located in Aurora CO. We have 32 beers on tap that are brewed in house with our 5 bbl brew system.

If you enjoy tasty beer, a great atmosphere, and a friendly staff make sure to visit Launch Pad. Brian and his brother brew outstanding variations with new offerings monthly. I highly recommend the stout offerings, definitely among the best I have tried. Do not miss a visit to Launch Pad, an added bonus is this is a veteran owned and run business. Come out and support small veteran owned business.
7. Stanley Marketplace
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 51 reviews
A small group of neighbors turned an abandoned airplane manufacturing facility into a gigantic food hall and urban market, a celebration of independently owned Colorado businesses and a community gathering place for neighbors near and far. Stanley includes 21 places to eat and drink, 10 boutiques, 5 places to work out, a massive events venue, a hair salon and nail place and more, just about 20 minutes from the Denver International Airport and a great first or last stop for people traveling to or from Colorado.

We went to the Sistine Chapel Exhibit which was great. We had been to the actual Sistine Chapel in February and found this to be very informative and would have been nice to see before seeing the actual chapel. A great explanation of the the various frescoes within the chapel. The amazing thing was how quiet this exhibit was as compared to the actual chapel where people were constantly having to be told to be quiet. Also here you can stop and spend time looking at the pictures as compared to the chapel where you have a limited amount of time based upon your tour schedule. This exhibit will only be there for a few more days. As for the market place, it is like most of the new ones that you see around town in redeveloped areas. Not real fancy but functional and pricey. The market place I would rate as average. If in the area you may go there but I would not go out of my way to go there for the marketplace itself.

Good theatre. Amazingly comfortable, reclining seats. If you go in the evening, it can be a bit pricey. If you go in the mornings or early afternoons, seats are reasonably priced. Concessions are very pricey but the actual food that you can get delivered to your seat is very good & not that much higher than a restaurant. Very clean and well maintained. Go on Tuesdays because seats are only $5 as well as popcorn & drink.
