Fox Theatre

Boulder


You’ll be elbowing your way through students to get near the stage of this excellent midsized venue, so head upstairs for a perch near the sound board for better views and acoustics. Bands on stage here are national touring acts, popular jam bands and indie rock. The box office opens on show nights only, starting at 6pm.
