CU Anschutz Block Party Booth Application 2026

The CU Anschutz Block Party is an annual all-campus celebration with food, music, games and activities, and booths representing campus departments and community resources. The event is free and open to the entire campus community. We look to bring together entities from the University of Colorado, Children's Hospital Colorado, UCHealth, University of Colorado Hospital, the Fitzsimons Innovation Community, CU Medicine and the neighboring community* to share information about each other and to have a great time. 

As always, we encourage booths/tables to be interactive and fun. Remember, this is more PARTY than information fair! 

Important Dates:

• The first application deadline is Monday, August 17th.
  Priority will be given to applications received by this date. Your booth will be listed on the event directory. Location preferences and requests for power will be honored to the best of our ability.
• The second application deadline is Wednesday, August 26th.
  Applications received by this date will still be accepted, but location requests and power cannot be guaranteed and the booth name will not appear on the event directory.

"Booth" Details:

• A standard exhibitor space is 10'x10' and includes (1) 8' table and (2) chairs. 
• There is no fee for campus units to participate in the Block Party. The cost for organizations and businesses outside of CU Anschutz is $50.
• Requests for spaces greater than 10'x10' or more tables and chairs will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
