Built in 1913, the historic Bluebird Theatre is a mecca for concerts in the Mile High City. It’s an East Colfax landmark, with regular shows of all genres and big name performers.
In 1997 the Bluebird was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.
Year round indoor concert venue in Denver
It originally opened in 1914 as the Thompson Theatre. It became the Bluebird Theatre in 1922 and served a variety of uses throughout its years. It operated as a movie theater for many years, as well a myriad of other phares, until being reopened as a music venue in 1994.
Chris Swank and his business partner invested and improved the theatre and it grew into a prominent part of Denver’s music scene, which is still is today.. AEG Live took over management in 2006 and made further improvements.
