The Arvada Center's Outdoor Amphitheatre comes to life each summer with a series of concerts featuring national and international touring artists and local cultural favorites. Join us this summer as we relax under the stars to great performances in a gorgeous setting.
Thanks for a great summer! Check back early 2027 for next summer's lineup.
Concessions are available for purchase at all summer concerts, with both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverage options. You can find concession stands in the Amphitheatre Plaza (to the left of the main entrance) or inside the Center, located at the top of the Ampitheatre between the Theatre Gallery and Main Stage Theatre.
For a more elevated experience and to avoid waiting in lines, we invite you to pre-order a prepared picnic basket through our catering partner, Organic Roots. Choose from three curated options ranging from charcuterie, dessert, and sweet and savory. Surely there's something for everyone.
To view basket contents or place your order, please select from the options on each specific concert page.
The Arvada Center Box Office, its phone center and website, are the only authorized outlets for tickets to performances presented by the Arvada Center. Tickets purchased from any other sources, such as brokers or secondary market web sites, are purchased at your own risk. We urge patrons to purchase tickets only from the Arvada Center. By purchasing from the official ticket provider, you are assured that the ticket you receive is valid and being sold to you at face value.
When you buy from someone other than the Arvada Center:
• We cannot guarantee that your tickets are genuine
• You almost always pay more than face value
• We cannot replace lost or stolen tickets
• We cannot contact you with information on production and/or performance cancellations, time changes or other useful information
