Hit up 12th on 12th for a family-friendly block party starting at 11am. Local businesses near 12th and Chicon Streets will offer deals (think: free skeeball and all-night happy hour at Full Circle Bar), while live music, hot cocoa, contests and more will be offered throughout the neighborhood.

The Bowie Elvis Fest, hosted by Splice Records and Saint Arnold Brewery, comes north for a party celebrating the shared birthdays of David Bowie and Elvis Presley. Head to the Continental Club at 9pm for local bands, an "Oh You Pretty Things" costume contest, themed games and Bowie face painting. Wise men say only fools don't plan to join the fun. 

Join host Meghan Ross for That Time of the Month, a monthly all-female late night show at ColdTowne Theater. A fantastic lineup of comedians will hit the stage, and audience members will be treated to an interview with Ana López (co-founder of Cocks Not Glocks). The show starts at 11:30pm; stick around for free snacks and giveaways.
