Denver International Airport's 82,000-square-foot open-air plaza has returned for the season through Sept. 30.

Why it matters: Passengers can soak up the sun, play cornhole, and kick back on grass-like turf before catching their flights.

What's next: The plaza will hold several events this summer. The first — which will honor AAPI Heritage Month — is from 11:30am-1:30pm Friday, featuring performances by Japanese taiko drummers, Polynesian dancers and a dragon parade.

From June 1-30, airport visitors can play a free nine-hole round of mini-golf from 10am-7pm.

If you go: The plaza is located pre-security between the Jeppesen Terminal and the Westin Hotel.
