These Colorado outdoor concert series are some of the best in the nation
DENVER (KDVR) — Colorado is home to some epic concerts, from the iconic performances at Red Rocks Amphitheatre to the headliners at Fiddler’s Green. So, it would only make sense that a new study found two of the best outdoor concert series in the country are right here in Colorado.
USA Today released a new study that asked experts and readers to pick the best outdoor concert series in the country. These series are usually free, family-friendly and offer all sorts of music.
