Summer Concerts At Arvada Center Announced

ARVADA, CO -- If you've been waiting your whole life to see Poco, Air Supply or Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo, make sure to check out the Arvada Center for the Arts and Humanities 2018 Summer at the Center Concert Series.

“This summer's concert lineup is our most diverse in years - we've got something for everyone, from rock to jazz to ballet to folk, and much more,” Philip Sneed, executive director in a press release. “We've got regulars like Asleep at the Wheel and the Colorado Symphony, as well as several acts that are new to the Arvada Center Amphitheatre stage. I hope everyone will come see an old favorite, or try out an act they've never heard!”

Along with throwbacks for 80s nostalgia buffs, the center's summer schedule will include Orleans & Pure Prairie League, The Wailin’ Jennys, Los Lonely Boys, and more.

Most of the concerts will be held in the Arvada Center's outdoor amphitheatre. Look like rain? No worries. The amphitheatre features a weather-friendly covered seating area with close-up views of the stage. Concertgoers can bring picnics or dine on local concessions including beer and wine.

The Arvada Center is located at 6901 Wadsworth Blvd. Parking is free.
