December 16, 2024
Beginning this Christmas (December 25, 2024), alcohol sales can take place on Christmas Day. During the 2024 legislative session, the Colorado General Assembly passed Senate Bill 24-231. Part of that bill included a provision that removed the prohibition on alcohol sales on Christmas Day. That provision went into effect this year.
This bulletin is meant only to inform licensees of their ability to sell on Christmas Day. There is no legal requirement to conduct sales on Christmas Day.
