Many of these are exclusive to the region.

2023

February

Feb. 2 - 4, 2023 - Billy Strings @ 1stBank Center
Billy Strings is not from Denver but we may or may not have adopted him. With three straight sold-out shows at Broomfield’s 1stBank Center, Billy Strings is basically a household name in The Mile High City. If you are one of the lucky ones to nab tickets, expect nothing less than an absolutely rambunctious night of bluegrass and blitzing banjos.  

March

Mar. 2, 2023 - Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band @ Ball Arena
The Boss is finally returning to Denver. By the time Bruce Springsteen graces Ball Arena, it will have been nearly seven years to the day of his last Denver area concert. With the rarity of such an American music legend, it goes without saying that this forthcoming show is something to be treasured.

June

June 10, 2023 - Kane Brown @ Fiddler’s Green Amphitheatre
Breakout country/rock singer Kane Brown is no stranger to Denver, but he’s never thrown down quite like he is planning to this upcoming June when he is slated to hit Fiddler’s Green. The “Thank God” singer will surely delight an intimidating 18,000 fans awaiting his crossover country jams, and his charismatic performances. 

June 17, 2023 - Illenium @ Empower Field at Mile High
Illenium is readying one of the biggest nights for EDM in recent memory as he preps a stadium extravaganza for the ages. Expect a dizzying amount of pyrotechnics, lights and euphoria as Illenium flips Empower Field into a sea of euphoria and boundless energy. 

August

Aug. 19, 2023 - Ed Sheeran @ Empower Field at Mile High
Much like Bruce Springsteen, Ed Sheeran is hopping on the road and hitting Denver after a very long time away from The Mile High City. Having everyone clamoring to get tickets to see you comes with the territory of being one of the biggest artists in the world. Ed Sheeran is no stranger to such a type of fame, as he has amassed many hit songs.
