Free Days in 2026: How to Have More Fun Without Spending More

Table of Contents

Who says great experiences have to come with a big price tag? One of our favorite ways to make the most of life in Northern Colorado is taking advantage of free days — the days when museums, parks, zoos, and cultural attractions open their doors at no cost.

This 2026 Free Days schedule is your go-to guide for planning family outings, spontaneous adventures, and low-key weekends that still feel special. From free national and state park days to museum and zoo free-admission days, this list makes it easy to enjoy more of what our community (and beyond) has to offer — without the extra expense.

Save it, bookmark it, and check back throughout the year. A little planning goes a long way when it comes to making memories.
