Denver Beer Co. - Lowry holds Pub Trivia every Wednesday at 6:30 PM at 7070 E Lowry Blvd. The taproom serves beer, and the taproom site describes a local brewpub in the Lowry neighborhood with a full lunch and dinner menu. That matters for a 6:30 start, because the doors open at 11 a.m. Monday through Thursday and close at 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday hours run 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., and Sunday runs 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. A table can be had well before the first question, and dinner can come first.
Free and cheap in Denver this week: trivia, live music, salsa
Free and cheap in Denver this week opens with two pub trivia nights listed as free: Denver Beer Co. - Lowry on Wed Oct 14 and Denver Beer Co (Olde Town Arv
Free and cheap in Denver this week comes down to one plan: pub trivia on Wednesday in Lowry, then a choice on Thursday, Oct 15, between a four-band bill at Hi-Dive and a $5 Thursday at La Rumba. Each is a different kind of night, and the Thursday pair means choosing one.
Free and cheap events: pub trivia
First-timers who want to know what a quiz night asks of them, from team size to what to wear, will find it in the bar trivia guide. The room has a wheelchair accessible entrance and wheelchair accessible seating. Google users rate it 4 of 5 across 178 ratings.
Live music at Hi-Dive
Hi-Dive is a funky bar and stage at 7 S. Broadway, with cheap drinks and live music from local and national acts, running from punk to bluegrass. Thursday, Oct 15, brings Abhoria + Velnias + Torn From Existence + Vexing, 7 pm to 11 pm, and the ticket price is listed on the Hi-Dive site . Four acts inside four hours is a brisk schedule, and the bill is the reason to go.
The bar is open daily, 4 p.m.-2 a.m., so a drink before the first band is easy to fit in. The venue has a wheelchair accessible entrance and a wheelchair accessible restroom. It carries the highest Google rating of the three places here, 4.5 of 5 across 809 ratings.
Latin dance nights at La Rumba
La Rumba is a late-night Latin club at 99 W 9th Ave, with dancing, cocktails and regular salsa lessons in a festive atmosphere. It is the only place on this page that serves cocktails. The club's site calls it Denver's Latin dance club and concert venue, with salsa lessons and live shows. Its events schedule lists a $5 Thursday under upcoming events.
For anyone new to salsa, the lessons are the draw, since they sit alongside the dancing rather than apart from it. The club has a wheelchair accessible entrance and wheelchair accessible seating, and it offers delivery. Google users rate it 4.1 of 5 across 522 ratings. Late nights in a dance club are a good argument for a rideshare or transit ride home, so plan the way back before the first song.
Getting there and parking
Denver Beer Co. - Lowry has free street parking at 7070 E Lowry Blvd. La Rumba has free street parking and paid street parking at 99 W 9th Ave. For Hi-Dive at 7 S. Broadway, a rideshare or transit trip is the simplest plan.
Hours and specials change, so confirm times with each venue before heading out. Both Thursday plans start in the evening, and only one fits a single night: Hi-Dive for a ticketed show that wraps at 11 pm, La Rumba for the $5 Thursday. Wednesday trivia at 6:30 PM comes first in the week and needs no choice at all.
Updated 2026-10-14: replaced the parking wording with the street and item for each venue, added the Hi-Dive show time from its site, and removed the Ladies Night line and the 8 PM start.
