It has long been known as one of the most iconic music venues in the country, and as of today, Red Rocks Amphitheatre also has the designation of a National Historic Landmark by the National Park Service and Department of the Interior, Gov. John Hickenlooper has announced.
“This designation reinforces Red Rocks Park and its remarkable landscape of red sandstone monoliths as a true icon for Colorado,” said Hickenlooper in a news release. “Itap renowned as the only naturally-occurring, acoustically perfect amphitheater in the world, and the diverse landscape attracts thousands of outdoor enthusiasts and even dinosaur fans.”
