Colorado’s newest amphitheater, Ford Amphitheater in Colorado Springs is set to host it’s first concert on Aug. 9th, and we’re pumped that a couple of country stars are set to play there!

The 8,000-seat Ford Amphitheater that’s under construction on Colorado Springs’ north side, about a 40-minute drive from the south parts of Denver like Greenwood Village, will host the band One Republic on Aug. 9, 10, and 11. Organizers insist that although, the venue isn’t ready yet, it will be by then!

about 20 more performers have been booked through mid-October, the amphitheater’s website shows, and that includes two country acts. Aug. 17th Walker Hayes will be the first country show, and then on Aug. 30th, Dierks Bentley will be there.
