Carousel

Carousel is Meow Wolf Denver's 21+ New Year's Eve party, taking place on December 31, 2026. It's a night that dances between elegance and the futuristic, with DJs and performers playing while an organ dances in the air and hazy lights fill the space. The whole thing is framed as a celebration of the year that's passing and the one that's coming.

There's a dress code to lean into if you're into it: guests weave among partygoers dressed in 1920s-inspired or cyber-steampunk fantasy outfits. The party happens inside Meow Wolf Denver, which is an immersive art experience that draws you into the converged worlds of Numina, Eemia, C Street, Ossuary, and the spaces in between. That's more than 70 rooms of hands-on art and a deep narrative mystery crafted by Meow Wolf's creators and more than 110 collaborating local artists. Convergence Station, the QDOT Transit Station, serves as the physical and metaphysical gateway to those worlds.

Because it's a 21+ event, you'll need your ID to get in. If you've never been to Meow Wolf Denver, the party is set within the same immersive environment that usually draws people in for the art, so you're getting the New Year's celebration and the experience in one go. Tickets are available through the official Meow Wolf site.
