If you’re traveling through Denver International Airport this holiday season, here’s an option to add a little holiday cheer to your travels…

For the first time ever, the DIA will have a holiday pop-up bar this season.

Lounge 5280 will transform into Santa’s Layover Lounge, a festive place for travelers to sit down and refresh with a meal and a drink. The pop-up bar is decorated floor-to-ceiling and has special holiday-inspired food and drink menus.

The airport said the pop-up bar will also have a hot chocolate bar and surprise appearances from holiday characters throughout the season.

Lounge 5280, aka Santa’s Layover Lounge, is located on Concourse B in the mezzanine on level 3, and is open from Tuesday, Nov. 19 to Saturday, Jan. 25, 2025, from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.
