Arrive Early and Plan for Extra Time to Enter the Venue. You and nearly 10,000 other people are all trying to enter and find seats at the same time. We suggest you arrive on-site well ahead of door time, especially if you have General Admission tickets. Remember, tailgating is allowed, so make an experience of your time at Red Rocks; bring snacks and hang out while surrounded by the stunning scenery.

Upon arrival to the gate entrances, please have your bags open and available for inspection. Everyone is subject to screening upon entering Red Rocks. Visit our Permitted & Prohibited Items for a complete list of what’s accepted in the venue; Red Rocks management reserves final decision on items allowed in. Also, please note our bag policy below.

Leaving after an event. If you’re being picked up by a relative or friend, or utilizing a rideshare service like taxis or Uber/Lyft, head to the Jurassic Lot near Entrance 2, where all passenger pickup at the end of events occurs. The recommended route to the Jurassic Lot is via the Will Call Trail located across from the Trading Post, and down Red Rocks Park Road.
