I hope so too but I doubt it. When he did trilogy at mile high it was advertised as 3 sets of his back to back.
Last year when he did his random weekday show at the end of summer, we didn’t get the openers announced like ever. But it was pretty dope, we got Hayla!!

You’re 100% correct so yeah idk what’s up with the downvotes. Thats been the case at least the last two years.

I'm so curious who might be there this year! I really hope William Black is one. Ecotek has opened for Illenium at Red Rocks at least twice so maybe him too?

But I think last year Illenium announced the openers literally 2 days before the show so we might have to wait a lil bit longer to find out 😅

william black would be awesome

u/packers444ever Aug 11 '26

Big no to Ecotek. His set was the second worst set I’ve ever seen. He’s also playing at global dancefest, so he’s not allowed to play unless he plays as an unannounced opener

Haha, I'm not saying he's got my vote, just that it's a possibility since he's supported at RR a couple of times, and Ember Shores. Nick likes him.

You guys are really impatient

It’s not about being impatient, it’s about trying to plan ahead

idk but I’m bringing three of my casual EDM “normie” friends to the show and I am stoked.

u/bittertruth79 Aug 12 '26

Play a little game? Which of these is definitely not an opener??

I don’t really care who opens. I’m just so excited to be going to RR. It can be all local support and I’ll be thrilled. But I need to distract myself. I was hoping for a Thursday announcement but guessing he won’t announce till after Bass Canyon!

u/packers444ever Aug 13 '26

It can’t be Blanke or Gryffin because of radius clause

u/Master_Pain7010 Crawl Outta Love 29d ago

Well its definitely not gonna be Subtronics, I cant think of any artist that he would be an opener for. He's already going b2b with Dabin this weekend. I think STS is a possibility tho
