I bought tickets on Groupon to see Goo Goo Dolls/Matchbox Twenty. Â We had General Admission lawn seating. Â It had rained the night before so the lawn was damp and there were muddy spots. Â Every one on the lawn ended up standing. Â It was difficult for me to see the small stage.
Parking was free in a lot, but it was quite far away. Â Even after the concert started, the line was very long and unorganized to get in.
The line to the Women's restrooms was long depending on when you went. Â Women were going in the Men's restroom with men standing at the urinals (my husband told me).
Next time, I would pay to have a reserved seat.
This is my absolute least favorite place to see a concert in Denver.
The stage is East-facing... so if you go to a concert that starts anytime before sunset during the summer, be prepared to get an arm workout shielding your eyes from the sun setting right above the stage. It's also near a residential area, so shows are typically over by 10:30. This could be a good thing if I didn't have to squint in pain to see the openers/some of the main act(s).
A beer will set you back $10. OUCH! Seriously??? Even Red Rocks isn't that awful.
Parking is atrocious. If there is free parking, it's nearly impossible to find, and a good hike from the ampitheatre. Otherwise, parking is going to set you back another $10.
With the gouge of ticket prices, the gouge of refreshments, and the gouge of parking, I would much rather completely AVOID any concerts here. Wait until the act you want to see wises up and books a show at Red Rocks! Crazy beautiful, free parking, and no sun in your face! woohoo!
