For tourists visiting Denver, Colorado, Red Rocks Amphitheater is a spectacular place to watch legendary musicians perform. This geological wonder is enhanced by a man-made stage. It has been held by the city of Denver since 1928, and Red Rocks has been the site of performances for more than 100 years.

The area is a popular attraction for many different genres of music. Due to a riot in 1971, rock music was banned from the amphitheater for a five year span, but the ban was lifted after a lawsuit determined that the ban had been unnecessary. Red Rocks was the recipient of the “best small outdoor venue” award for 11 years before the award re-dubbed it the “Red Rocks award” and removed the theatre from the competition.

Popular groups/singers that have sang/videoed at Red Rocks include Bjork, The Killers, Bob Dylan, DJ Tiesto, The Fray, Rush, Dierks Bentley, Gary Allan, The Smashing Pumpkins, and many Denver bands. In a bygone era, mega superstars like The Beatles, Fleetwood Mac, Oasis, Jethro Tull, John Denver, Sonny & Cher, Pat Boone, The Carpenters, Grateful Dead, Dave Matthews Band, Phish, U2, Coldplay, and many others held audiences captive here. Both music videos and live concerts are performed here, and many artists have included the attraction in their U.S. concert tours each year.
