Red Rocks Amphitheatre parking

Morrison, CO · Concerts and shows

For most shows at Red Rocks, parking is included in your ticket and there's no extra fee on the day. Lots open 2 hours before doors, and Traffic Control directs you to a space, so you may have a hike up to the gates. Free Red Rocks shuttles run around the park while people arrive.
