We’re entering the first weekend of Halloween proper this week in Denver, and the party is already beginning—there are some insane shows on deck! Here are some highlights:
An unbelievably heavy lineup approaches for the inaugural Supernatural Festival at the Western National Complex on 10/26. Created by the masterminds at Global Dance, this festival will rattle your bones with bass all day and all night, featuring sets from Kaskade, Sullivan King, Marauda, Virtual Right, and many, many more. Start your spooky season off right with this incredible festival!
Canadian indie rockers Hotel Mira are returning to Denver as a part of their worldwide tour on 10/23. They’ve chosen Lost Lake as their destination of choice and they’ve brought along Denver’s own Jesse Marcus & The Swan Song to get the party going promptly. Known for their electrifying stage presence and unbelievably catch tunes, Hotel Mira isn’t a show to miss!
The bloodiest and wildest proof that aliens truly are real, GWAR descends upon our fair city on 10/28 and promises to leave not a single denizen of Denver unscathed. These otherworldly metal gods have chosen Dark Funeral and Squid Pisser as the bands most worthy of a pre-show sacrifice before they descend upon the crowd—it’s the most fitting way to celebrate Halloween!
The rest of this week’s shows are below. As always, stay in the know about Denver’s music scene with 303 Magazine!
