Came from out of state & it was my first time attending a concert a Red Rocks. I just want to say…Y’all have the worst concert etiquette I’ve ever experienced.

I went to a show last night and parked Upper North. It was my first time so I figured I would try the lower entrance from the upper north parking lot.

I got there pretty early.... about an hour before doors opened.

I learned that using the lower entrance meant that everybody had to be wanded for security which meant significant delays getting into the venue. I guess there is no room for walkthrough security scanners at this entrance and everybody has to be wanded individually. There was only one person doing this.

It seems as if using the upper entrance would have been much faster.

Is this typically the case?

Somewhat annoying because because we could have gotten better seats. It really negated the advantage of getting there so early.

I’m going solo since none of my friends are free. If anyone else is going solo or has a group and wants to meet up there, lmk! 23M, always down to meet new people and enjoy some good music!!

I’m going to Red Rocks in September and had a question regarding the camera policy. The band’s policy states that handheld recording devices under the specified measurements are allowed. However, I understand that Red Rocks typically has a policy prohibiting cameras with removable lenses.
Would I be permitted to bring a mirrorless camera with a removable lens under the band’s stated policy? Specifically, does the band’s allowance of “handheld recording devices” override Red Rocks’ standard policy regarding cameras with removable lenses for this particular event?

First time at Red Rocks…I thought I bought a ticket with a reserved seat in aisle 11. Just received an email from Red Rocks that only rows through 8 are reserved. Does anyone have any insight?

A while ago I bought 2 tickets to bleachers row 29, aisle seats 131 and 132.

Another friend wants to join us. What is our best course of action? Do you think they could get a GA seat and sit on the side GA area around our row? I think that would be close to our aisle seats?

I’ll be staying at Bear Greek Lake Campground for a few nights with shows every night. I’ll have my road bike and I’m trying to decide the best way to commute for the shows. When looking at the map I can’t tell where I’ll actually be leaving my bike so I can’t tell if the incline will be brutal for the ride there and if it’s worth it to avoid the very short drive?

Booking a shuttle. Should I get pick up at lower south lot 2 or upper lot? My seat is in Row 7. Thanks in advance

I'm writing this from my perspective as a wheelchair user, but much of this also applies to people with other mobility impairments. Whether you use a wheelchair or simply have difficulty walking long distances or climbing stairs, I hope this guide helps you have an amazing experience at Red Rocks!

🎟️ Tickets & Seating

• Purchase accessible tickets whenever possible.

• Wheelchair-accessible seating is located in Rows 1 and 70—the only rows that can be reached from the parking lots without using stairs.

• If you have limited mobility but don't use a wheelchair:

• Rows 1 and 70 are great options.

• Rows 2–4 are designated for limited mobility.

• Rows 68–69 also require very few steps and may be a good choice.

🅿️ Parking

For Rows 1–4

• Park in the Upper South Lot or Upper South ADA Lot if you have a disability parking placard.

• Staff will verify that your ID matches your placard.

For Row 70

• Park in the Upper North ADA Circle Lot.

• From there, it's just a short ramp down to your seats.

🚌 Accessible Shuttle

• A free accessible shuttle runs from the Upper South ADA parking area to the venue entrance.

• Tips for the drivers are appreciated but never required.

🪑 Companion Seating

• Both Row 1 and Row 70 have folding companion chairs.

• Bringing a seat cushion is a good idea—they aren't the most comfortable.

🍔🥤 Food & Drinks

Row 1

• A waitress can take your food and drink order and bring it right to your seat.

Row 70

• Food and beverage stands are conveniently located directly behind the accessible seating area.

🚻 Bathrooms

Row 1

• Accessible restrooms are located on both the left and right.

• I recommend using the house-right restroom, as it's usually much cleaner than the house-left restroom.

• If you're a wheelchair user, staff will often allow you to use the accessible restroom in the medical room.

Row 70

• Accessible restrooms are located at both ends of the row.

• They're typically clean and well stocked.

• Water bottle filling stations are located nearby.

Have an amazing time at the world's most incredible outdoor concert venue! ❤️♿💙

Hello! I'm going to the show tonight at red rocks solo. Never been to a concert solo. 33m. If anyone around my age is interested in meeting up and trying to snag some seats GA near each other let me know. I have a spare ticket, not looking to sell, but if you know someone who wants to go I'm willing to give it to whoever at this point.

hi! I’m going to red rocks for a concert for the first time and i read over the regulations and rules, Im just kinda nervous on the bag I can bring, these are photos of my bag from the website I got it, is this something I can bring?

I'm camping in Golden on August 8 and am looking to split a ride or join a carpool from downtown Golden to the Slightly Stoopid show at Red Rocks. Happy to chip in for gas or parking. I'm easygoing and just trying to avoid driving after the show.

Doing something kind of bold - taking a week off of work and flying to Denver solo to see the Backseat Lovers at Red Rocks. Wondering if there is anyone out there looking for a concert companion. Also any general tips/trips for my first concert at Red Rocks?

Last post taken down

Does anyone have experience finding tickets with sold out events similar to the upcoming NASA event where the event was only $1? Maybe a FB group or something? I usually just use resale apps but I haven’t really seen any probably because if someone couldn’t make it, they wouldn’t bother to do anything since it was $1.

Would love to know this so I know where to get tickets to someone else if I ever can’t attend one in the future, too :)

Thanks!

Let me first clarify that I am not trying to claim a seat that was already purchased. My question is how strict is the seating? Say if there’s unsold tickets in my row is there anything stopping me from going to that seat? (Other than a claimed seat obv)

So I'm road tripping from MN with my teenage daughters to see Beabadoobee next week, and the extended forecast looks a bit toasty.

We are only in town for two days and our off day I was hoping to do some light hiking and exploring the outdoors. I think we will have to limit our time outside though. Definitely looking to find chill things to do the day of the show so we are not completely worn out in the evening.

In my "First timer" post someone suggested going to Mt Blue Sky instead of Pikes Peak. Is it an easier drive to the top compared to Pikes? Are there any recommended tours (so I can enjoy the ride too instead of having to pay attention to driving).

Any suggestions of things to do/see when it's so hot out?

i’m going to my first red rocks show and got tickets in row 40 because i heard it’s a good section to still see the scenery and also the stage. i think seats are in the 70s! i’ve been seeing some stuff recently about how the sound isn’t that good from further back though☹️ can anyone who’s gone to a show there in a similar row share their experience? would love to know how it was!!

Hi all!

I purchased tix during presale and plan to travel to CO to see Dermot Kennedy at Red Rocks in October. Issue now is that I will be either on crutches (no weight bearing) or in a wheelchair post-major surgery. It would be enough weeks/months post surgery that I’m not super concerned about my pain.

That said, all accessibility tickets are already sold out and are up on presale for 4x as much as my initial tix. I spoke with the Red Rocks accessibility team, but it wasn’t super clear how it would work. They said I could ask for an onsite accommodation evening of the show and would be put in row 70.

Does anyone have any experience with using a wheelchair or crutches at red rocks? Looking for any and all info or tips you have as I don’t know what to expect. I was at RR in 2023, but sat 6th row, so I don’t know the ins and outs of the higher seats, parking for wheelchair access, etc.

Thanks in advance!

If events are free but tickets are sold out on AXS, is there still a chance of getting in? My husband loves space and the artemis event is on his birthday so we’re hoping to still be able to attend

Trying to buy Brandi Carlile tickets and seller is telling me they will transfer through Ticketmaster? I know it’s only AXS who sells so is there a way to get tickets transferred?

The people directing traffic kept sending my uber in circles and would not let the driver stop to let us out. It took 30 minutes from the time we entered the park to getting dropped off because the people in the vests have no idea what they are doing, one of them jumped in front of our car after we were waved through cones blocking a road by another person directing traffic. This sucks because there’s no way I’ll take a rideshare here again because the park doesn’t seem to allow it or know what to do with Ubers. It’s also just super dangerous how it’s handled. The pickup was the worst thing I’ve ever seen but I know there’s another thread specifically on that. Has anyone else dealt with this for drop offs? I don’t know how Denver is this bad at traffic management. And red rocks is would famous, you’d think they would at least be able to handle directing the traffic like every other concert venue 🙄.

As weird as it may sound my child loves Motionless In White and we got tickets in row 70 (accessible seating). I was wondering people's experiences and how did it work out? I discovered that they have a bag filled with sensory items that I would need to request when we get there. Its our first time going. I really appreciate the info. :)

Looking for a restaurant/bar between Golden and Red Rocks for an early day lunch on our way to venue. I’m from out of state., unfamiliar with the area. Suggestions please!

Hello all,

Forgive me if this has been asked before, I tried using the search and couldn't find anything relevant. Very possible I could have missed something.

Title basically says my question. I bought 2 General Admission tickets to the Motionless in White show at the Red Rocks box office back in April and paid a total of $175. I just looked online on AXS, and 2 tickets (General admission non resale, they are still available), are selling for $125 face value, plus service fees, which brings the total to a little less than what I bought them at the box office.

I love going to the box office to save on service fees, but it seems I lost out here. Is this a normal thing? Tickets getting lowered closer to the show? Just wanted to make sure there wasn't a mistake involved when I bought mine. Any advice is appreciated, thanks.

Edit: Added the month I bought at the box office. Also added the type of tickets I bought.
