Heatwave Hits Denver with Cooling Centers Open | Denver News

Heatwaves are hitting hard, with temps soaring into the high nineties and fire risks climbing — but locals are staying cool with splash pads, city pools, and cooling centers. Aurora’s centers are on standby for 100-degree days, while Denver already has 50 open spots for everyone — not just the unhoused. Families are enjoying splash pads like Great Plains Park, where a grandma from Pueblo says it’s the perfect escape. Stay hydrated, bring an umbrella, and find shade — and don’t forget: splash pads are free daily until Sept 7, pools cost $7 for adults and $5 for kids/seniors, with some running weekday-only and others extending through Labor Day.
