All of the 2018 Red Rocks Shows Announced So Far

Photography by: Roman Tafoya

Be sure to bookmark this page – we’ll update it as new Red Rocks shows get announced, openers get added and when tickets sell out. Head here for more of our coverage on the venue. 

It’s happening — Red Rocks show announcements for 2018 are already in full swing (and they’re not even done with 2017 shows yet). At the time of publishing this article, six shows have been announced for 2018, not including the New Years Eve Show that will ring in the next season, but this number does include the upcoming Winter On the Rocks. That said, I’m sure we’ll be hearing more from the venue soon.
