Red Rocks Amphitheatre

This was easily one of the best stops on our trip. The views were absolutely beautiful. We had a tour guide with us who was very knowledgeable about the area and the theatre itself. It's a bit of an intense hike up, but it's well-worth the climb. Gift shop is at the top as well as a wall with everyone who has performed there, and a history section. It was really fun and I would go again. Definitely something everyone should see.

As concert venues go Red Rocks Amphitheater is really world class. Get there early if you'd like to find a seat lower down by the stage otherwise expect to sit up in the high rows. Parking is free although it does take a while to leave. Be prepared to get a little exercise as you climb the change in elevation. Be sure and check the forecast because if it's going to rain and you don't have the right gear it could be a little unpleasant.

This was a breathtaking experience! Literally. Both from the sheer beauty of the place as well as the hike it takes to get in and around Red Rocks with such thin air at that high elevation. After concerts three nights in a row, my best tips are to wear comfortable shoes, hydrate and go to the Ship Rock Grille down inside the amphitheater by the Visitors Center. Its built around two giant boulders with great views. The service is great and the prices are better than up top. If you're in the mood for pizza, Anthony's is fantastic.

This has always been my favorite place to see a concert. We've been coming here for many years and have seen so many different concerts here and none of them have been bad experiences. All of them sound great here. The natural acoustics are amazing. It doesn't matter if you are watching a rock concert, country or the symphony here. Everything sounds good. There is always plenty of parking. There are numerous parking lots around. If you don't want to walk from the lots they will have a free shuttle bus that will take you from the farther lots to the bottom of the amphitheater stairs. But to be honest, we've never taken it and the walk is usually about 10-15 minutes depending on which lot you are in. There are plenty of restrooms that are located near the bottom. Plenty of different concession stands with drinks and food around the edges on both sides. Plus there are usually the vendors that will also be going through the aisles. The aisles are wide, which is great because it makes it easier for people to walk through with little disturbance compared to other venues where you either have to stand up or move out of the way every time someone wants to get by. It's the perfect place to come and see a concert.

The guide offered good advice for the hike up or the hike down to our seats. I loved the food and bar area. Bonnie Raitt wrapped up her tour with an incredible set. She's awesome. Red Rocks has always been on my bucket list, and it took a lot of planning and coordination to check it off, flying in from the Southeast. But MAN, it was worth it! And I'll be coming back!

Awesome time at the front range of Denver, the scenery is amazing. Had nice trail hike. Their was a band playing while having lunch. We spent our evening in our chairs looking at the clear ski, at all the stars with music in the air. It was a great way to spend the night. Parking is really difficult when there's a band in town. Try to get there early, so you can get a good parking spot. We didn't see any pets/dogs, at this place. A great place for wedding/graduation pictures. Be safe, everyone.

We saw String Cheese Incident and it was a beautiful show all around! Our first time at Red Rocks and it was absolutely gorgeous! If you've never been and your favorite artist plays shows here. I would 100% recommend going. You might even get lucky like we did and see a rainbow take up the entire backdrop!

Came here for the Reggae on the Rocks concert and it was incredible!! The structure and views of this place is insane—breath taking!! The sound system was awesome too! It’s a hike to the top, so wear comfortable shoes. From the parking lot, there’s a complimentary shuttle that can take you to the top! Food and drinks are sold at the top but you can get snacks and drinks down towards the stage as well. Highly recommend coming here for a concert!
