  • 1. Denver Performing Arts Complex

    Downtown

    This huge complex, composed of an impressively high-tech group of theaters, hosts more shows—from classical orchestras to interactive experiences to Hamilton—than any other performing arts center in the world. Spread over a four-block area, the eight theaters are connected by a soaring glass archway to a futuristic symphony hall. The complex anchors are the round Temple Hoyne Buell Theatre, built in 1991, and the ornate Ellie Caulkins Opera House, which occupies the former Auditorium Theatre built in 1908. The other six theaters include the small Garner Galleria Theatre and the midsize Kilstrom Theatre. The symphony, ballet, and opera have their seasons here. The complex has been run by the Denver Center for the Performing Arts since 1972.

  • 6. Fiddler's Green Amphitheatre

    Concerts

    This Greenwood Village–based venue has changed names over the years. Most recently it was Comfort Dental Amphitheatre, but now has reverted back to its original Fiddler's Green. While the name keeps changing, the platform remains the same—large outdoor summer concerts. Although many compare this nondescript amphitheater unfavorably to Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre near Morrison, Colorado, regular concertgoers may find Fiddler, with its small details, such as ample parking and individual seating, more comfortable than Red Rocks.

  • 7. Opera Colorado

    Downtown

    World-renowned for its superior acoustics and a Figaro seat-back tilting system that allows attendees to follow the text of the opera, the magnificent Ellie Caulkins Opera House has red-velvet seating and a lyre shape, ideal for full-bodied sound travel. The cherrywood-accented theater, in the Newton Auditorium, is where Opera Colorado presents its spring season, often with internationally renowned artists.
