Big Head Todd & The Monsters at Red Rocks

Colorado's hometown band returns to Red Rocks for their annual rite, the homecoming show Denver wraps its evening around. Three decades deep in the local scene, Big Head Todd and the Monsters have turned this Morrison amphitheatre into a yearly campfire. 4 Non Blondes opens, which makes the bill an instant '90s rock night under the sandstone.

Expect a setlist that walks the catalog from Sister Sweetly through the latest record, and the kind of crowd singalong that only happens once a year. The band sounds tighter than ever and the show has a guaranteed feel-good arc.

What to Expect

An evening of hits and deep cuts under the red sandstone, with picnic blankets, a sunset only Red Rocks delivers, and the band sounding tighter than ever. Bring a layer; the temperature drops sharply once the sun ducks behind the rocks.

Plan Your Night

Gates open ahead of the show and the closest lots fill fast, so leave a buffer or rideshare in. The amphitheatre is cashless. The walk up from Lot 1 is part of the magic - give yourself time, take photos at the top, and grab a beer at the Trading Post before you head down to your row.
