Oct 2, 2024 - Jeff Lynne’s ELO @ Ball Arena
Jeff Lynne’s ELO is heading out for one last hurrah. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees will bring their heydays to the present day to delight audiences with songs like “Mr. Blue Sky” and “Evil Woman,” among others.
Oct 2, 2024 - Anderson .Paak & the Free Nationals @ Red Rocks
Anderson .Paak & the Free Nationals are in a celebratory mood. Set to play their debut album, Malibu in full for the first time in years, following a very successful (and envied) announcement of such a performance at the Hollywood Bowl, the gang is taking the show on the road to Red Rocks. Given how beloved the project is to many folks, it’s bound to be a highlight of the season.
Oct 2, 2024 - Justice @ Mission Ballroom
Here’s the deal — Justice rarely tours the U.S., let alone make solo stops outside of music festivals. The French electronic duo, a beast in their own right, but also the closest thing to seeing Daft Punk live, are absolute legends on their own accord. Their storied live show, a brash and bombastic overload of lights, stage design and guttural production make any time they’re touring a must-see event.
Oct 3, 2024 - Wardruna @ Red Rocks
Viking-influenced Norwegian band Wardruna has a wild show planned for Red Rocks. With their non-traditional instruments, costumes and overabundance of lore, Wardruna will be a storied performance, to say the least. Not only that, but it’s refreshing to see a group relish in the past with such authenticity and admiration, that it turns into something unique and spellbinding.
Oct 5 & 6, 2024 - LSZEE: CLOZEE + LSDREAM @ Red Rocks
Two of Bass Music’s breakout stars are teaming up for an explosive collaboration. LSZEE the collective moniker, will see the coming together of LSDREAM and CLOZEE for not just a performance but a full album coming in 2024 as well. Brace your neck, because you’ll be riding the rail anywhere within earshot of this blowout.
Oct 8, 2024 - Meghan Trainor @ Red Rocks
Pop-star to the moms and certified Tik-Tok sensation Meghan Trainor is coming to Red Rocks with radio-friendly doo-wop bops this season. The “All About That Bass” singer is bringing no shortage of throwback power with Natasha Bedingfield, and “Got To Be Real” sample star, Paul Russell. A Tik-Tok conglomerate if you will, for the whole family, filled with virality.
Oct 11, 2024 - Charli xcx & Troye Sivan Present: Sweat @ Ball Arena
No one person may be capturing the cultural zeitgeist as much as Charli xcx is now. From having people around the globe making memes of her latest album, "BRAT," to being namedropped and co-opted by Vice President Kamala Harris to announce her presidential run, Charli xcx is truly omnipresent. Alongside queer juggernaut in his own right, Troye Sivan as a dual headliner, the Sweat Tour promises to be a wet-walled, hot and humid dance floor revival of the most queer and hedonistic nature.
Oct 15, 2024 - Zedd @ Red Rocks
EDM hitmaker and pop collaborator Zedd returns to Red Rocks alongside his first full-length album since 2015, Telos. Known for standout tracks like “The Middle” and “Stay,” one can expect his Red Rocks showcase to be nothing short of a hit parade. Knowing it’s Zedd, expect all the cotton candy lights and visual spectacle to go along with it.
Oct 22, 2024 - Daniel Caesar @ Red Rocks
R&B crooner Daniel Caesar is set to make his long-awaited solo debut at Red Rocks this year. The understated and buttery vocalist, Caesar has etched the date as his only one thus far in 2024 – a celebratory end to 2023’s NEVER ENOUGH tour run.
Oct 23, 2024 - Marc Rebillet @ Red Rocks
This just in – it’s 2024 and Marc Rebillet is as rambunctious as ever. The self-dubbed “loop daddy” is heading back to Red Rocks for more of his cartoonish antics and maniacal beats. The guy who kept the vibe in his bedroom in 2020 is very much outside and he’s not going back in anytime soon.
Oct 25, 2024 - Above & Beyond @ Red Rocks
Trance icons Above & Beyond are back for a soul-shifting return to Red Rocks. The dance group, known for their stirring and deeply affecting music are beloved for their “Group Therapy” mixes and their intentionality in dance music, particularly in the live setting where the connection they foster with the audience is truly unmatched.
Oct 27, 2024 - Shaq’s Bass All-Stars @ Red Rocks
If you didn’t know, Shaquille O’Neal, the famed former basketball player, is bringing his reincarnated career as a bass-head (DJ Diesel) with pulverizing beats to Red Rocks for a star-studded debut. Coming in hot with the likes of Habstrakt, Riot Ten and Benda no less, and you’ve got yourself a party. The question is, can they even fit him through the door?
Oct 29, 2024 - Ashnikko, Rico Nasty and COBRAH @ Red Rocks
Ashnikko’s first run as a headliner at Red Rocks is bound to be a riot. With a lineup rounded out with hard-core femme rapper Rico Nasty, slutty electronic newcomer COBRAH, and Kezia and you’ve got more than enough ammo for a hell of a night. Did we mention it's the weekend before Halloween? That alone is worth the admission.
Nov 1 & 2, 2024 - deadmau5: RETRO5PECTIVE: 20 YEARS OF DEADMAU5
It’s hard to believe that deadmau5 has been in the game for 20 years already. Time certainly flies when you’re one of the industry’s biggest trolls. But truth be told, deadmau5 is a legend in electronic music, and his name and reputation speak volumes to the energy and innovation he’s injected into the genre since he first donned his iconic mouse head.
Nov 14, 2024 - Armin van Buuren @ Red Rocks
Few electronic producers/DJs have had the stature that Arvin Van Buren has held throughout their careers. Like TIËSTO who coincidentally plays the night after, Armin Van Buren is an EDM legend, and a headliner of headliners, whose career stretched through its second decade with ease. Don’t let that fool you though, he’s as hard-hitting as ever, adapting to the next generation of EDM without dulling his assured legacy and his upcoming Red Rocks date is no exception.
Nov 15, 2024 - TIËSTO @ Red Rocks
Seasonal Colorado resident and trance titan TIESTO brings a rare whopping four-hour DJ set he’s dubbed “Prismatic” to Red Rocks as one of the season’s latest but still one of the most anticipated performances of the year. The superstar DJ, who is a figurehead at festivals and clubs across the globe doesn’t frequent classic live music venues in the same way, and for one of those few and far between occasions to be Red Rocks, makes one think that this performance will surely be one for the books.
Nov 19 & 20, 2024 - Billie Eilish @ Ball Arena
Billie Eilish heads back to two back-to-back sold-out nights at Ball Arena atop her third album, "HIT ME HARD AND SOFT." Though she is barely 22 years old, Eilish has felt like a veteran in the music scene at this point, due in part to her penchant for creating unassuming but devastatingly effective hits. Look no further than “Birds of A Feather” from her new project or “What Was I Made For?” From the "Barbie" soundtrack, not only has she still got it, but she’s never lost it – she just gets better and better.
