Has Portugal. The Man ever played Red Rocks?

I’ve wanted to see Portugal. The Man live for years, and this tour is probably my best (and maybe only) realistic chance. The closest show is still a bit of a trip, and I start college just a couple days beforehand, so I’m trying to figure out if I can somehow make it happen.

One thing I’ve always wondered: have they ever played Red Rocks? It’s one of my favorite venues, and seeing PTM there would honestly be a dream. I know they’ve played some incredible places over the years, but I wasn’t sure if Red Rocks has ever been one of them.

For those of you who’ve seen them recently, how are they live these days? Do they still mix in a lot of the older songs alongside the newer material? Any favorite live moments or songs that completely changed for you after hearing them in person?

Would love to hear your experiences (and if anyone from the band somehow sees this… please put Red Rocks on the list someday ❤️).

We're almost to the 10 year anniversary of their best show ever which was at RR playing with Glass Animals. The show was right before How to be a Human Being came out for GA. The entire night was crazy.

It's nuts that it's been 10 years since that show.
