The Hi Dive on South Broadway. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)
Denver is a beautiful city with lots of fun things to do. In addition to other many exciting activities, music lovers have a lot to look forward to in May. Here are a few music concerts in Denver to check out if you’re visiting the city for the first time or if you are a lifelong resident!
Inside Paramount Theatre
Aaron Lewis – May 5th
Best known for helming the rock band Staind in the early 2000s, singer-songwriter Aaron Lewis is returning with an acoustic tour. He’ll be appearing at the Paramount Theatre this May, showcasing a catalog of country-inspired hits, as well as some old favorites sure to ignite the crowd.
Inside the Fillmore Auditorium!
Lil Wayne – May 7th
Lil Wayne is considered a pillar of the rap and hip-hop scene and for very good reason! The performer, who fans can see at the Fillmore Auditorium this month, is known for hosting exciting shows. He’s also written some mind-bending bars. Get tickets for this one soon, as they’re likely to sell out quickly!
Party at the Mission Ballroom!
Pixies – May 10th
Many people consider the alterna-rock band Pixies to be the precursor to the grudge genre. They will be playing a concert at the Mission Ballroom which will feature their biggest hits! In addition to their many releases, the band’s music has also been featured in movies like Fight Club, as well as TV shows like The Midnight Club.
A great place to see the stars!
John Summit – May 14th
Fans of electronic music will be excited for John Summit at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Along with the onslaught of pumping dance music that’s sure to get the crows going during the evening, concertgoers will also be able to take in the impressive natural amphitheater, which is surrounded by so much stunning beauty.

We completed the Vampire escape room and absolutely loved it! The puzzles were clever, creative, and kept us thinking the entire time. Everything was really well done. Huge shoutout to Wyatt--he did an awesome job setting the scene, getting us pumped to play, and offering just the right amount of help when we got stuck. Five stars all around!

This was my first escape room experience. I went with one other person and we made it about 2/3 of the way through with only our 2 brains. Dakota was our game master and he was super friendly and enthusiastic- he allowed us to see the final room and other puzzles we didn’t get to experience during our hour. He went above and beyond and we’re excited to come back another time for a different escape! Thanks Dakota!

This was my first visit to Escape Works. As an avid escape room artist, I can confidently say I highly recommend this place. The room itself was challenging but yet manageable for all skill levels, while not frustrating and keeping puzzles fun! Dakota was a phenomenal game master from talking with him before, his hints were great and well timed. We will return for sure and am looking forward to doing the new location as well!

Austen showed us a really good time with 3 different rooms. She was super enthusiastic about her job and telling the story for each room. Super informative and made it fun. Even gave us riddles to solve while we waited for each room to be setup. 10/10 recommend. The rooms were fun and definitely had some challenging parts!

My friends and I did the Pirate escape room for a part of a bachelorette party and we had a great time! Such a fun experience, and because it was only an hour, it was an easy addition to our itinerary. We liked how this escape room gave us hints when we were struggling and didn't penalize us for getting the hint. It made for a really fun time! Also, our gamemaster Dakota was so fun!! We would definitely recommend.

We had an awesome time at EscapeWorks Denver! Dakota gave the perfect amount of hints, helping us along when we were stuck but still allowing us time to think the puzzles through for ourselves and still feel challenged. Dakota was very friendly and took a lot of great photos for our group when we successfully escaped the room. I would recommend EscapeWorks Denver for a fun night out!

My BFF and I did the Speakeasy Room, and it was so much fun! Wyatt was a great game master and gave us clues at just the right times. We escaped with less than a minute to spare...whew. I would definitely come back to do another room when I next visit Denver.
