Fiddler’s Green Amphitheatre, Open-air theatre in Greenwood Village, United States
Fiddler's Green Amphitheatre is an outdoor theater near Denver with 7,500 fixed seats and a sloped grass section accommodating roughly 18,000 people total. The stage design allows clear sightlines from most areas, whether visitors sit under cover or bring blankets to the lawn.
The venue opened in 1988 with a performance by Dan Fogelberg and underwent several name changes including Coors Amphitheatre and Comfort Dental Amphitheatre. It evolved from its original concept as an earth sculpture into a permanent structure with fixed seating and walls to meet growing demand.
The Museum of Outdoor Arts manages this performance space, where concerts spanning rock, jazz, and pop bring the community together throughout the warmer months. The venue has become a gathering place where people return year after year to hear live music under the open sky.
Arrive early to claim a good spot, especially for popular shows, as some areas fill quickly. The venue is located south of downtown Denver, so factor in travel time and check weather conditions before heading out.
The site began as an earth sculpture designed for lunchtime performances before being transformed into the permanent venue it is today. This evolution from temporary art installation to major concert hall reflects how the space adapted to meet growing community interest in outdoor performances.
