Gala on the Bridge 2026

September 11 @ 5:30 pm – 11:00 pm

Gala on the Bridge is an Invitation-Only Event.

Gala on the Bridge is The Greenway Foundation’s signature fundraising event. This evening offers stunning views of the South Platte with attendees enjoying live music, cocktails and dinner.  This event offers a night like no other!

Gala Event Information
Sponsorship Opportunities Available Soon

Event Details

Location

Gala on the Bridge will be held in the middle of Commons Park, along the South Platte River. The entrance to the event will be here. The easiest way to find the entrance will be to enter Commons Park at the intersection of Platte Street and 16th Street, then walk east across the Highland Bridge.

Parking & Ride Share Services

Parking near Commons Park is extremely limited. We highly recommend using a ride share service to get to the event. You can use Emage, 1620 Platte St, Denver, CO 80202 as your drop off location then head east over the river to the entrance to the event.  If you plan to drive, paid parking is available at REI and select areas along Platte Street.

Attire

Denver Formal: Think fun, festive cocktail attire. It’s a gala after all, so this is a chance to dress up and break out something special. This is an outdoor event and requires walking on grass.

Award-Winning Chef

In 2025 local, award winning chef, Paul Riley prepared the Gala event food.  Best known for his cuisine at Coperta, the former Beast + Bottle, Pizzeria Coperta, and Apple Blossom, Chef Riley brings bold flavors and seasonal ingredients to every dish he creates. Stay tuned for our 2026 chef!

2026 Committee Members

A special thanks all our previous as well as our members making this a successful fundraiser for The Greenway Foundation. 2026 Committee Members will be announced soon!

Gala After Dark

Join us for Gala After Dark! The fun continues with a silent disco dance party with 3 live DJs. If you are already attending Gala on the Bridge, there is no need to purchase an additional ticket- just stay and celebrate with us!
