Red Rocks Amphitheatre Tickets | Concerts seating chart

The Red Rocks Amphitheatre is one of the most well-known concert venues in the world. Situated in a rock structure just outside of Denver, Colorado, the amphitheater is operated by the City of Denver and is in Red Rocks Park. The earliest known performance at the venue was in 1906, but it’s likely that it was used for that purpose as early as the 1870s. The venue was transformed into what it looks like now in 1941 and has held concerts every years since 1947.

Red Rocks has a capacity of 9,450 and has been featured many times throughout the years in television and movies. The Adventures of Ford Fairlane, The Amazing Race and South Park have all shown or filmed there, and rapper B. o. B. filmed his video “Don’t Let Me Fall” at Red Rocks. The Amphitheatre itself is made up of one group of 70 rows but is usually split up between ‘reserved’ and ‘general admission’. Food and beverages can be purchased near the south ramp entrance.

Large acts like John Denver, U2, Rush and Jimi Hendrix have also played at the iconic venue. In more recent years Red Rocks Amphitheater has remained as one of the most iconic concert venues featuring artists like John Mayer, Dave Matthews Band, Ben Harper, Phish, and many more.
