The nomination period for the Best of Mile High Awards is now closed. We’re grateful for the support we received as the Denver community nominated their favorite local businesses and helped kick off another exciting awards season.

What happens behind the scenes

With nominations complete, our team is now reviewing each submission to determine which businesses will move forward in this year’s program. Because only a limited number of companies can advance, not every nominated business will become an official nominee.

During this stage, we carefully review each business to ensure:

• It aligns with the appropriate category
• Business information and locations are accurate
• Google reviews from the past 12 months reflect a consistent customer experience

This step takes time, but it helps keep Best of Mile High competitive, fair, and meaningful.

What’s next

Once the review process is complete, we’ll announce the official Best of Mile High nominees. After that, the program moves into the voting stage, which runs February 24 through March 12.

Thank you for being part of Best of Mile High. We’re excited to share what’s next.
