Convention Center/Performing Arts (RTD)

Convention Center/Performing Arts (RTD)

Convention Center/Performing Arts is a light rail station on RTD's rail transit system in Denver, Colorado. The station is located in downtown Denver, on Stout Street, between Speer Boulevard and 14th Street, within the Colorado Convention Center and also close to the Denver Performing Arts Complex.

The station opened in 2004 to replace the 14th and Stout and 14th and California stations, which were used for southbound and northbound trips on the D Line, respectively. These original stations were opened with the rest of the Central Corridor in 1994. In addition, the station is two blocks from a connection with the free MallRide shuttle bus service on the 16th Street Mall.

Convention Center/Performing Arts Station is also currently the only station on Denver's light rail system with a 4-car platform. As part of the FasTracks plan that was approved by voters in 2004, all light rail stations in Denver that currently handle 3 cars will be upgraded to have 4-car platforms.
