What to bring to outdoor concerts in Colorado

Make sure your outdoor concerts plan includes a jacket. Even a summer night in Colorado can get chilly.

Most venues sell snacks and beverages to offset the cost of producing a concert so be sure to buy a beer, a soft drink, some popcorn or a hotdog. That little bit of money you spend goes a long way to keeping a free concert series free.

Check first, but most venues will allow you to bring lawn chairs and blankets.
