My friend and I were ready for a night of nostalgia with Alice Cooper. The show did not disappoint, nor did the venue. The Mission Ballroom is quite cavernous, industrial and loud. It's a good loud, a wall of sound, well-balanced. The space was standing-room-only with bars along the side wall. The stage was large with an immersive lighting display. Overall, it was a great experience. The pricing was what you would expect for a venue this size. I assume ticket prices are a sliding scale depending on the show. The drinks and pricing were what you'd expect for a show. The parking is a little annoying; be sure to bring cash and plan accordingly before you leave the house. Otherwise, it's a good night to be here! read more

I think this is a fantastic venue. I loved how clean it was! There are a lot of different bars, with fairly reasonably priced beverages for a music venue. There is a huge floor area but also some open seating (amphitheater style) too (which is huge). read more

Beautiful setting! Clean restrooms, easy access for the bars! Highly recommend. Weirdly the Uber pickup was far away and not ideal read more

First time in Denver and the Afters at Mission. Quite a nice spacious venue that seem to accommodate all times of live music. Production and sound quality are quite top notch. Had a really good time watching Worship. Really got crowded at the end but everyone was polite and had good vibes all around. Parking was simple and underground. read more

Honestly, this is my favorite venue ever. The production is top notch, there's always plenty of space to dance and the sound quality is great. I also appreciate that there's enough bathrooms to prevent long lines and same for the bars. Highly recommend coming to a show here. read more

Had a company appreciation party here. What a great spacious venue. First time here. Now seeing this space, I would like to come here for a concert. Plenty of restrooms. Parking is elsewhere and then have to walk to the venue. Not very far. The food set up was great. They had a hamburger and Mac and cheese bar. They had veggie trays at center of round tables. It was a fun and good evening. read more

I would have a good review had the supervisor not been a jack off. Bunch of sissy boys if you can even call em men tbh. My girlfriend was having a panic attack (full blown trying to comfort her) and the supervisor made me leave after explaining the situation and made my gf and her friend sit to the side while crying. I just think that's extremely crappy and unnecessary especially when I'm being the most respectful person there. Unlike ALL and I mean ALL the staff. I really hope this shit is changed especially after tonight because we could have had a serious fucking problem. Thank you to the staff who was responsible and respectful but to the other shit needs to change and I will be talking to management read more

Best indoor concert venue I've been to so far! Plenty of easy access to bars and restrooms, easy/quick secure entry (with metal detectors), cheap coatcheck, and convenient merch booth location. Beers are comparatively cheap as well. read more

One of the best venues anywhere to see a show, jam up front or vibe in the back. They could use more water fountains though read more

Fun venue! Lots of separated space for merch, small tacos & nacho area, and lots of places to get drinks that it was not over crowded. Good design. Arriving, I went to a window to pick up tickets and passes but all three windows had people proving what they paid, on this app and then another, I just wish there was a line just for guest list~ as that did take some time to finally walk up and get my stuff in less than 30 seconds. Staff was super friendly from front middle and back. A well run venue with happy workers = great experience! And the floor space was roomy to dance although like all show the later it gets the more crowded it get too! Would totally come here again. Side view is a bit awkward with giant speakers blocking visuals but- next time i will aim for center back and up a bit. Everyone seems to know THAT is The Spot! read more

Mission Ballroom - Stage view - Music Venues Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Favorite indoor venue in Denver, every house rave I've gone to here has been phenomenal. The only complaint is that it shows being 16+, I was young once, but that is just too young for some shows that will obviously have crazier things than just alcohol there. Nevertheless, that is a personal choice young minds make for themselves. My first show was AC Slater or Wax Motiff in 2023 (If I remember correctly), and most shows sail smoothly, especially if you hang in the back (it's Murph crowd had people passing out left and right, but we were in the back lol). read more

By far the worst venue I've been to, for starters the older gentleman outside forming the lines to get in were overly aggressive for absolutely no reason, which in hindsight was a very poor decision on there part considering they kept people outside in below freezing temperatures for well over an hour and didn't pat down or search ANYONE upon entry, and then to throw into the mix as well the bartenders were clearly over serving alcohol as I personally watched over a dozen people have to helped/carried out, and then to add upon that they didn't allow anyone to meet any artist. The second the show was over they rushed everyone out of the venue and back into the below freezing temperatures. WOULD NOT recommend this venue to anyone. read more

I was honestly pretty happy with my experience here! I came to see The Band Camino and the stage was big, but not too big. Everyone that worked here was really nice and the drink prices were not bad whatsoever. I cannot tell you the last time I had a decent priced drink at a venue! If I lived closer, I would come all the time because I appreciate the fact they aren't taking advantage of their customers. The place and bathrooms were clean enough, but could've definitely been a bit cleaner. Definitely one of the better venues I've been to in a long time. read more

Hands down my favorite venue in Denver. Love the option for the bleachers because as a short person I can't see anything on the floor crowd.

Great venue, really cool location to see a show. We just sat the Fray there, it was awesome. Easy parking as well. read more

The fact that pit and chairs are all covered under general admission is wonderful. Beautiful venue as well with excellent acoustics. Drink prices are insanely high, even for a concert venue. read more

Concerts here are so much fun!! Since the venue is still fairly new, the parking there is still under construction (I believe). There is parking offered around the area, but personally parking can be so irrationally expensive. Pro tip: park at the Hub RINO garage for affordable parking and the walk isn't bad at all... unless it's snowing then it might be worth spending $20+ read more

Really nice, new venue, at least as of 2023 when I visited. I liked that they had plastic cups for water. The cups had to be returned, but it's better than paying $7 for a bottled water. The light up palm trees scattered around the place were a nice touch. There was seating in the back and in the balconies but lots of standing room in the front for GA events. The event I went to they even set up cocktail tables in the back but there was still lots of room. Lots of bars. So many bars in this joint. The drinks were expensive but convenient at least. read more

We saw Yelawolf, PROF, Cowboy Killer here 7/12/24. This place is awesome. We got the "fast passes" plus on-site garage parking for the show & it was SOOOO worth it. We literally had merely steps to walk from the garage to the "fast pass" line. I felt like VIP. We got in super early & was able to choose our spot. We were watching people from the normal line still pouring in 2 hours later. They had a semi-decent taco/nacho stand right after entrance, merch tables were there immediately upon entrance, also a full bar. Then when we got down to the actual show seating there were 2 full bars on each side of the main "mosh pit" floor. We opted to sit up away from the crowd (show was sold out & was jam-packed by the time it started). We found some seats up top which had padded chairs and a smaller version of the bar there right behind us!!! Drinks were pricey of course but that's expected at shows, unfortunately. I would definitely love to see another show here. The bathrooms were super easily accessible from the upper level we were on also. We had a PERFECT view of the stage and the whole packed crowd. Definitely an experience to remember. read more

They banned flowstars? And glowsticks? Idk why they would feel the need to ban flowstars or even glowsticks and when I asked they said flow art is banned and when I ask about tinny glowsticks they said cause people throw them. Literally never coming back when I go to concerts I like to give people glowsticks and to flow in the back this was a waste of time and money. read more

Mission Ballroom is certainly the best up and coming small concert venue in Colorado. Restrooms are in abundance, bars are easy to access and entry is easy. The sound is amazing and never seems to be ear splittingly loud. There are VIP areas on the second level if you choose to buy tickets in that area. Depending on the show it can be standing room only or reserved seating with your own private bar and restrooms. The huge disco ball in the center of the room is truly a spectacle and is designed to change from show to show based on the artist. All in all, a nice venue and I will look forward to seeing more shows here. read more

This was my first time here to see Epik High and I was shocked at how nice the venue was. First off, there's plenty of parking opportunities here. You can park on the street for free and walk several blocks or pay a fee to park on the venue. There are signs everywhere so you won't get lost. The venue is really nice in that it's isolated away so only the venue is operating and you're not blocking any businesses which makes it feel safer. This venue was designed with people and crowds in mind. There are several bars and bathrooms located throughout so you're not waiting in line. It's a pretty big venue and since it's newer, it's clean and doesn't have that sticky musky feel and smell to it. There's a lot of space. We had a meet and greet and it was so nice that they actually kicked people who didn't have VIP out. At gothic they didn't and it was just crowded and a mess. This was well organized. Props to the staff. read more

I've seen multiple shows here at the Mission Ballroom. The lines move quickly to get in, multiple bars to get drinks at (hint go to the side bar and not the one when you first enter, there is hardly a line), and the cleanest bathrooms for a venue. Not a bad seat in the house with amazing sound throughout the building. We love seeing shows here. read more

Me and my friends went to a concert here on 9/18/24 what was amazing! Everyone but security was great! First of all we bought fast pass tickets and it wasn't made very clear where the correct lines were. Security wasn't very communicative and when we were put in a line and made to kind of snake around to fit in. But when they opened the line to let us out they just let us all stampede up to the doors rather than keep us in the line they made us use. Nearly lost my phone in the rush which had our tickets!! read more

Mission Ballroom - Stage for DPR concert - Music Venues Near Me - Denver, Colorado

My wife and I love this place, such a great venue in a killer location in RiNo north of downtown Denver. Easy to get to, parking is pretty straightforward with lots all around the location within easy walking distance and not too expensive ($20). Also easy to take the light rail to get here. The venue itself is great, easy to get inside, never had to wait in a long line and the staff is always friendly and accommodating. For the actual concert venue, the acoustics are great throughout, I've not found a place in the venue that sounded distorted. I've been to 5+ shows here so far and not been disappointed. There are several reviews that complain about the cost of drinks...well...it's a concert venue, that kind of comes with the territory, they're not any more expensive than anywhere else I've been or maybe you're drinking too much, either way, it's not bad. The last point about this place is that they have bars and bathrooms all over the venue so you don't have to go far to refresh yourself either way. Definitely a great place that gets great acts for how 'small' it is, highly recommended! read more

Wow! This place is pretty fab. 3500+ capacity, clean restrooms, quick service at the bars (waited a whole minute) and merch table (waited 13minutes). Drinks are expensive (typical) and GA is very roomy but as the usje, mind your moshing (don't do it). Tonites show with Judas Priest and Queensryche was fantastic!! The sound was clear and perfectly loud, the light show very spasmatastic. Parking is a walk so wear some good shoes ladies. RiNo is building up fast with high rises so there is no such thing as prime parking. You can prepay at the lot on 38th and Brighton or pay as you arrive at the 40th Street lot. Expect to have a wait getting thru security. Bags are allowed but will be searched. Bars accept only credit card for payment. There was a coffee kiosk as well. read more

Best venue in Denver! Love the upgrades to the coat check, it's was a lot more efficient this winter. That being said, get your coat 10 minutes before you're planning on leaving, especially if the show is over soon. The line gets looooonnnng as soon as the last song plays. I love the option to sit down if I want or go in the crowd and stand up. Many bar locations, free water, and there's always medics on site. Alright now... The sound?? The lasers??? Mind blowing for an indoor venue. I've seen so many events here in the past two years and each one has been amazing. read more

First time here and was not disappointed! The general admission is mostly standing so be prepared to stand for all hours but if you get there early you might be able to grab a seat in the back. Though the parking cost $25 the garage being underground was very convenient! Plenty of bars to get drinks, I liked how they give you a wrist band so the bartenders don't have to check IDs. The only option for food is a taco stand inside or left hand brewery outside the venue, do wish they had more food options inside. The bathroom has plenty of stalls so the line doesn't last too long and they have a water station to fill bottles up. I'd come see a show here again! read more

Mission Ballroom - T-Pain - Music Venues Near Me - Denver, Colorado

We flew into town and saw Justice here, and fell in love with this venue. The stage handled their insane light show, the sound was tight. The folks that work there were welcoming. Even though it was packed, we didn't have to wait long for a drink. Many of our venues in LA, we have to wait forever for a drink. It was also cool that they had a non-alcohol bar serving fun options. Hope to come back! read more

I had a great time at this venue for the Lewis Capaldi concert! It was my first time at Mission Ballroom for an event. I recommend getting there early to snag a seat if you can otherwise it is standing room only. They have food options which had a long line so another reason to come early! The cups are recyclable and reusable which is a nice feature. There are lots of bins around for the cups to be disposed of so there was not a lot of trash on the floor. The venue is intimate and not overly crowded which is nice. Anywhere you are you can see the stage and have a good view! There are parking lots nearby where you can pay to park, and I also saw people using the light rail because there is a station nearby. read more

The best venue in denver in my opinion. We've gone to sold out shows and do not feel packed in. There is a great layout to the venue that every seat is a good seat. There's never a long wait for drinks or the bathroom. Parking is a bit of a pain, I recommend ubering for sure. read more

Cool venue. Saw Sturgill Simpson there. Was able to easily spend time in the pit and then later find a seat in the bleachers. Pretty much all views are good. Only issues was sound was off some up top. Heard this happened before. read more

Extremely disappointed that we did not receive the service we paid for and were unable to enter the event due to unsafe conditions. Vivid seats and Mission Ballroom being inflexible and unwilling to even partially refund a group of military members who cannot afford to be injured in the crowd surges and 70mph winds, while not being let into the event hours after the doors were supposed to open, is extremely disappointing from these corporations. I would not buy tickets from this company again and would recommend no one else does either. read more

This was my first time at Mission Ballroom and I was really impressed by the convenience of the amenities and the ample stadium seating/standing areas upstairs. The bathrooms were plentiful and clean, which I really appreciated. The forced long walk down a closed road to the park and ride created confusion for a lot of folks who clicked an Uber pickup before being sent on the long walk. It was quite chilly out and the wait for the Uber was 30 + minutes because so many got turned around or went to the entrance of the building several blocks away. Unfortunately you'll have to wait until you get to the park and ride to hail your ride share, so come prepared. read more

Decent venue! They had new metal detectors that only detect certain metals, so no need to take phones or jewelry off your person to go through security. Bathrooms were clean and well stocked, even later in the evening. Drinks were $8.50, so fairly reasonable- although water bottles were $6. I saw some people with nachos but didn't get any myself. You can bring in water bottles, and they have really nice water refill stations throughout. I saw someone with a hydroflask, so metal might be ok, but I would probably stick with plastic just in case. read more
