Why you should go…
Carved between two 300-foot sandstone monoliths, Red Rocks has hosted concerts since the 1940s and remains one of the most acoustically celebrated venues in the world. The park and its trails are free and open to the public during the day, no ticket required. On show nights the amphitheater itself is ticketed, but the surrounding park stays open for sunrise hikers and stair-climbers.
