DENVER — Thousands of people are expected to visit Five Points this weekend for the Juneteenth Music Festival, and while organizers and business owners in the area say they're thrilled to have cultural representation, they're also wary of what the set-up may bring.
Benford wasn't the only one who said he had issues with closures and fencing during the Jazz Festival. Joshua Pollack, who owns Rosenberg's Bagels and Delicatessen, said the same. "It's very frustrating. Yes," she said."For us, for our regular customers that are not able to get to not just my store, but all the other stores around here."
Business owners also told Denver7 they wish there was more communication with organizers ahead of these events.
