Where is
the "Will Call" at Red Rocks?
The box office and ticket Will Call is located on the Red Rocks
Park Road (entrance #2). The Red Rocks Park Road entrance is
along Hwy. 93 and is the closest entrance to the town of Morrison.
Ticket Will Call opens 2 hours prior to doors opening.
Where are
my seats located?
The seat rows are numbered bottom to top 1 through 70. Rows
for General Admission and Reserved Seating vary from show to
show. Your seat number is located on the brown tag on the front
of your seat. Please assist us in getting everyone seated as
quickly as possible by making sure you are in the correct seat.
Seats are numbered right to left facing the stage (lower number
to the right higher number on the left). PLEASE NOTE: Rows 1 & 70 are always reserved for handicap seating at Red Rocks.
I bought
General Admission tickets but they have a row and seat number
on them—what's up with that??
General Admission is exactly that—first come, first seated.
The row and seat numbers on GA tickets are just a form of tracking
- like a serial number. Just disregard them and enjoy
wherever you end up sitting. But don't forget: take up just
one seat so that there is room for everyone.
What features
are there for patrons with disabilities?
Accessible seating is located at the top of the amphitheatre
in Row 70 and at the front of the amphitheatre in Row 1. Designated
accessible parking for persons with disabilities is in two locations.
Please check your tickets for the locations of your seats before
parking. For access to Row 70, parking is available in the Top
Circle Lot. For access to the front Row 1, parking is at the
Upper South Lot. A valid, appropriate handicap placard or license
plate is required. All park entrances can access all parking
lots. Guests should arrive as early as possible to ensure space
availability and to reach their seats prior to show time. Red
Rocks operates shuttle vehicles to transport guests with disabilities
or mobility impairments from the Upper South Parking Lot to
the ramp accessing the first row of the amphitheatre. Accessible
restrooms are available at the south amphitheatre entrance, the top of the amphitheatre and at the North Concession Stand. Concession stands are accessible
from both handicapped seating sections. Additional detailed
information (including Ticketing Policy) can be found at the
"Access for the Disabled" link at the bottom of this
page.
Does my
child need a ticket?
Although the promoter of some shows may have a different policy
generally children under 2 years of age do not need a ticket.
They are required to sit on the lap of the adult and to not
interfere with someone else's seat. Please keep in mind that
some shows may not be appropriate for young children and that
children must be supervised closely by a responsible adult.
Can I buy
tickets at the Red Rocks Box Office?
The Red Rocks Box Office is only open the day of the show. IF
there are tickets still available you can usually purchase them
at the Box Office. The new walk-up/drive-up Box Office is located
on Red Rocks Park Road (entrance 2).

open 30 minutes prior to the Amphitheatre gates.
How much
is parking?
For most shows, parking is included in the price of your ticket. No additional
fee is charged at the venue on the day of a performance.
I need to drop off my friends and pick them up later. Where is the best place?
We think that the Trading Post is the easiest place to get to if you are dropping off non-handicapped guests. It can be accessed from any entrance to the park. When you come back to pick them up, please be sure to arrive 20-30 minutes before the end of the show so that you won’t be caught up in exiting traffic. Feel free to check with us a couple days beforehand and we will know the approximate end time of the show.
It's raining
now—is the show rained out?
Not Likely. Most shows begin moving in by 6:00 AM and once the
decision to move in has been made, the show generally goes on.
The amphitheatre stage has a large roof protecting it from adverse
weather. The Denver front range area is famous for afternoon,
monsoonal flow, hit and run, rain showers. Weather is generally
not a factor for most shows. You are encouraged to bring rain
gear. Umbrellas (as small as possible and without points) are
acceptable, but because they can block the view of other guests,
we would prefer that you wear a poncho instead.
Should a performance be changed or postponed due to weather
conditions, announcements will be made on this
web site, or by the Red Rocks automated voice response system
(720-865-2494) with information regarding all
of the pertinent details.
Where is
your lost and found office located?
Items found during an event are taken to the Red Rocks Operations
Office backstage. Contact an event services supervisor for assistance.
After a show, lost items are taken to the Denver Coliseum office
by the next business day. You can inquire about a lost belonging
at the Denver Coliseum, Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM - 5:00
PM (holidays excluded) or call 720-865-2475.
If I arrive
early, what gate do I use?
If you arrive early, before the Amphitheatre gates open, you
may wait in line on the East Stairs. When arriving prior to
the scheduled gate time, you will be directed to park in the
Lower South Lot #2 -located furthest from the Amphitheatre. All entrances to the Amphitheatre open at the same time.
Is there
an ATM at Red Rocks?
Yes! There is an ATM located in the Visitors Center at the top
of the Amphitheatre.
Where do
I buy tickets?
Tickets are available at different places depending on the show.

parties permitted in the parking lots?

fires and charcoal grills are also prohibited. Small gas-controlled
grills are allowed unless there are temporary fire bans during
high-risk fire periods.
What is

Up to 9450 people can be seated in the amphitheatre, and every
seat has an unobstructed view of the stage and perfect acoustics!
If I leave
something in my car, may I leave the show to go get it?
Unfortunately, no. Due to security issues, once you are past
the entry gates and your ticket has been scanned, you cannot
leave the show and re-enter. Re-entry is only permitted in weather-related
or medical emergencies.
May I bring
recording equipment (video or audio) or a camera with me to
the show?
Some artists do allow fans to bring in cameras and/or recording
equipment. Most do not. This decision is made by each individual
performer, not by Red Rocks.
Where do
I park?
There is plenty of parking in our many lots, but we encourage
you to carpool. Please park as directed by Red Rocks staff members.
Cars blocking or impeding traffic, or illegally parked, will
be relocated. If your vehicle is relocated, contact a staff
member for assistance.

brought into the facility from the outside. You may bring seat
cushions, soft side camping seats or stadium seats under 18"
wide. No items with legs are permitted.
