Week 13 NFL game between the Denver Broncos and the Miami Dolphins at Empower Field at Mile High.
The Denver Broncos take on the Miami Dolphins at Empower Field at Mile High on Sunday, December 6, 2026. It's a Week 13 NFL game, and the league has billed it under the theme 'Thankful for Colorado,' which puts it right in that early-December stretch when the season starts to tighten up and every home game carries a bit more weight.
If you're planning to head in, the timing is worth keeping in mind. Kickoff is at 2:05 PM, so it's a Sunday afternoon game. The doors open at 12:00 PM, and the parking lots open even earlier, at 9:30 AM. If you're the kind of person who likes to get in early, find your seat, and settle in before the crowd peaks, you've got a wide window to work with. If you're just coming for the game itself, you'll still want to leave enough time to get through the gates and find your section without rushing.
Coming in as a Week 13 matchup, this is one of those mid-season games that can shift the momentum of a run. By December, the standings are usually starting to take shape, and a home game like this one becomes a big deal for the local crowd. The 'Thankful for Colorado' theme adds a bit of a community feel to the day, which is something you'll likely notice around the stadium.
