This summer, a new 8,000-capacity state-of-the-art music venue opened up in Colorado Springs, not far from the grounds of the U.S. Air Force Academy. The Ford Amphitheater (fordamphitheater.live) has already hosted Grammy-nominated acts like OneRepublic, Barenaked Ladies and The Beach Boys, as well as Grammy winners like Steve Miller and Cage the Elephant. If, like us, your mosh pit days are in the rearview mirror, you’ll relish the chance to reserve one of 90 luxury fire-pit suites with VIP amenities like private entrances, plush seating and bar service delivered to your seat. Kick back, watch the sun set over Pikes Peak, and when the main act takes the stage and the Colorado night air turns crisp, you and your exclusive party can cozy up to the flames to stay toasty.
