Tour will be a walking event this year in keeping with the green theme

The celebrated L’Esprit de Noel Holiday Home Tour and Boutique returns this holiday season for its 32nd year in the Denver Metro Area. Tours begin Friday, November 21, and run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. through Sunday, November 23 in the Belcaro Park neighborhood. The Phipps Tennis Pavilion at 3300 Belcaro Drive will showcase the boutique. This popular fund raising event, organized by the Central City Opera Guild, is considered one of Denver’s signature holiday events and benefits Central City Opera.

The annual Patron Preview Party will be held Thursday, November 20, and includes an evening tour with cocktails and an elegant grand buffet. Tickets are $250 for benefactors, $150 for patrons and $90 for junior patrons (age 35 and younger).

Five homeowners will open their homes to some of Denver’s most accomplished and renowned florists and table designers this holiday season. The boutique will showcase more than 40 vendors with holiday decorations and gifts, clothing, jewelry and gourmet food. In addition, Whole Foods will host a free wine tasting. With the grace and elegance of Belcaro Park, the spirit of the holidays will never be more alive. “We are fortunate to be in the Belcaro neighborhood where there is ample parking and the houses and boutique are within walking distance,” said L’Esprit de Noel Chairperson Cindy Koch.

Perry & Co. Real Estate Professionals is the presenting sponsor for another year. “We had such a great experience last year—from working on committees to volunteering at the homes and making new friends – it was an easy decision to come back this year as presenting sponsor,” said R. Don Larrance, President of Perry & Co. Real Estate Professionals. “Plus, we’re all becoming opera fans! Central City Opera is a truly a Colorado treasure.”

Advance tickets are $18 at King Soopers, buy now online, or through Central City Opera box office at (303) 292-6700. Tickets will cost $20 at the door. Admission is free at the boutique, and parking also is free for all home tour and boutique guests.
