Sustainability and Corporate Responsibility

Sustainability and making a positive impact on our community has become a central focus at the Denver Christkindlmarket, reflecting a growing awareness of environmental impact and corporate social responsibility (CSR).  These efforts not only enhance the festive atmosphere but also ensure that the holiday celebrations align with broader environmental goals, creating a more sustainable and responsible holiday experience for all. We are also a proud Denver Green Certified event.

Reduce & Reuse

To lower our carbon footprint and waste at the market, we work with r.cup to lower our single-use cups. To learn more about r.cup and their mission click here! We also have a water wagon on site that provides free filtered drinking water for all patrons.

To reduce food waste, we work with local food waste programs to donate unused food to those in need.

We like to further emphasize waste reduction by providing recycling stations and encouraging the use of reusable shopping bags and containers.

Students also receive a stipend to spend while in the Market.
