Five nights a year. The whole hotel, every time.

Kevin Larson Presents has produced immersive parties in Denver for 30 years: more than 500 events, and five that come back every season. Each one takes over a building instead of a room. Ballrooms, atriums, balconies and the floors upstairs, filled with performers, DJs, costume culture and people who came to go all the way. Book a room and the night ends in the elevator.

Kevin puts on the most amazing events! The NYE 2024-2025 White Rose Gala was incredible! The event spanned across one of the Ritz-Carlton’s entire floor. There were various rooms with different types of entertainment and every guest my wife and I met were friendly, fun, and excited to be at the gala! The roaming photographers were super cool too! We are excited to go again!

KLP events are not only the best in Colorado, they’re the best in the country. I’ve traveled to similar themed parties in other states but they don’t come close. Top-shelf people, entertainment and access- every time.

My favorite parties are Halloween, white rose (NYE) and Marie gras… Oh, and Derby! But every time, these are the most fun and interesting experiences I get to do locally throughout the year. Love Kevin and his amazing creative visions!

I went to both the New Year’s Day and Halloween events last year hosted by Kevin Larson Presents, and both were absolutely incredible! The energy, the production, and the attention to detail were next-level. The Halloween party especially stood out—amazing costumes, awesome entertainment, and such a fun crowd. If you’re looking for unique, well-organized events that really deliver a full experience (not just a typical party), I highly recommend checking them out. Can’t wait to go again!

Kevin Larson's events continue to be THE elite events to attend year-over-year. These are not just parties, you are truly immersed in the theme of each event. Highly recommend every event they host!
