Tivoli History

Historic Tivoli

The Tivoli is a Denver landmark with history as interesting as its architecture. The first of its 12 buildings was constructed in 1866 as a brewery. The Tivoli was named after the world-famous Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen, Denmark. It changed hands many times before brewing its last beer in 1966. In 1994, the Tivoli newly renovated, opened as one of the premier student unions in the country. Its role as a student union represents the recent history, but there is much more to the Tivoli story. The Tivoli Historical Timeline will acquaint you with its illustrious past.
