Outside Days

The best days are the ones we spend outside together.

That belief is what inspired Outside to create a new kind of festival in 2024—a gathering to celebrate the joy we feel when we head out our doors to be with our friends and family. We wanted to craft an event that would spur people to play and explore, to dance and let loose, to remember what it really means to be human.

We put music at the center because of its power to create connection. We invited extraordinary athletes, artists, and storytellers to come and fill us with awe. We screened adventure films that can transport us to other worlds. We built experiences that encourage us to keep our eyes, ears, and hearts open to the wonder that’s all around us.

What started as the Outside Festival has become something much bigger: a movement that we call Outside Days.

Amazing bands performing on a stunning outdoor stage create the heartbeat of Outside Days.

In 2026, we are excited to expand to three days of music, May 29 – May 31. GA and VIP tickets are available for the festival at the Auraria Campus here!
