One of my favorite venues in Denver. The Moon room is great for smaller shows and the full summit is great for some of the bigger shows. The balcony is nice if you dont want to be in the pushy crowds, however I was somewhat sad to see that the balcony is reservation only. The merchandise areas dont get in the way and its a nice place to meet band members.

Awesome concert hall. Sleeping with Sirens was fun. Nice bartender gave thirsty teenagers water after show.

The Summit Music Hall was a great experience. The venue has a nice view from anywhere, I stood at the bar had drinks saw the bands without anyone in front of me. Theres an upper balcony seating area if you want to pay extra, but down below was just fine.

Ive been here for a few live shows and its a great intimate venue to enjoy your favorite music and bands. Its also just a great event venue overall: Ive been there for corporate events and presentations when there are chairs and tables throughout, and Ive been there for dancing/moshing by the crowd. They also have a full bar and adequate restroom facilities, plus a balcony if you want to get up and out of the throng.

Great concert venue. I like the seating on the balcony. The bathrooms accessed from the balcony were nice and clean. I really enjoyed the concert I saw there. Definitely recommended if you want to see a concert there.

My husband and I went to go see Covet. Let me say this- this was our first time at this concert hall and we will definitely be back. It was SO organized and on time! I can’t remember the last time I’ve been to a concert and the doors opened on time, the staff was efficient at giving directions, the line was quick, security was professional, the bar staff was phenomenal, the list goes on. We had a great time- thank you, Summit staff!

Fun venue and very warm and hospitable staff. The Summit clearly sources good folks for its team and coaches them on making sure concert goers enjoy the show. I would definitely go see a show here again!

Nice intimate setting. They sell pizza by the slice and they are huge slices! Lots of drinks offered but are priced as expected from a concert venue. I would recommend getting a seat in the VIP balcony or else you will be standing for 4+ hours.

Although Im moving soon out of Denver, Im remembering my favorite places and I really enjoyed all of the shows I saw at Summit in Denver. World Class spot and well worth going to and grabbing beers at tap 14 or falling rock before!

This is an awesome venue. The size is great not too big and not too small. Youve got a pretty good view from anywhere, but the space is large enough that you dont feel pressed for space. The locations of the bars is convenient for grabbing drinks. Finally, the venues location from both public transit and public (pay) parking is really great. Theres a fairly large lot just around the corner at 19th and Market St. that averages around $10-15 for parking.

I really enjoy the Summit music Hall. I remember when it was a nightclub but I think it serves as a live music venue even better. Good sound inside, good space to move around in, and a large bar. The only downside is parking...there really isnt any thats not metered or in a lot thats outrageously overpriced. Thats any downtown district for ya.

Really cool spot! Took my 7 year old boy here last week for a Lupe Fiasco show and tickets were only $30! So cool a lil shot like this can bring in a headliner like that!Really liked the fact that I could bring my boy and felt safe. Were ate lots of pizza and drank soda, which had a lid! Was perfect!Only downside was to go upstairs they charged $50 extra per person.. so to keep him out of the weed smoke were had to pay extra.Really was a good time though and will definitely be back.

The bathroom is very nice. The setup seems odd--almost as if the stage is a temporary part of the room. The floor is flat, so if youre short you should try to be at the front of the crowd.

Great staff, location, and atmosphere. Whether attending an event or working with them to put on one, this place is incredible!

Review №17

This was my first time at this venue. I have to say I was impressed and would go again for sure. The people were nice, it was clean, loved the fact you could upgrade to the balcony for seats. The one thing I had an issue with was it was FREEZING outside and I did VIP which had early entry but the way (From what I was told) live nation set it up you had to do the meet and greet and then go back outside. Stood outside for over an hour and it was way to cold for that. I think the venue would benefit from having some type of wind barrier outside or tunnel to stand in because it is CO and cold.

Small but Awesome, I would say the Music Hall is half the size of the Fillmore Auditorium. The band is right in your face, so needless to say Im deaf right now. Cradle of Filth destroyed the place with Pure Death Metal! Parking is abundant and drink/food prices didnt break Me. My food was Beer that night..... $6-9 bucks for a large brew. I would definitely recommend this venue.

This place is the bomb. I just watched truckfighters in the moon room. Cozy, comfortable, and just cool. They have a pizza place for some great before music grub, wide selection of drinks and seating to enjoy it at. I was very impressed with the sound. No matter where we were in the venue, we could hear crystal clear, and it was balanced perfectly. The venue is small, which is perfect for a personal and exciting experience. Would recommend to anyone, I feel like I could watch any band here and love it.

Cool venue! It’s definitely different than most because of the way it’s laid out but it’s a fun place for smaller shows. Sound and lighting was decent as well!

Review №22

The Summit has both perks and drawbacks. The door and bar staff are lovely, friendly folks. Theres ample parking nearby, and if youre coming to downtown from the interstate, the venue is easy to locate and to get to and from I25. Sound is always okay, and its almost entirely standing room only.At last nights show, I was appalled that the venue was offering a paid skip the line service ($13 a head!!) and the balcony area was an additional charge, as well. Come on.

For places to see a live show this is one of the best! Extra bonus they serve pizza by the slice to go with my milk stout. Get there early you could get a chair.

Used to be better. The only good thing is that they moved the stairways out of the middle of the floor but now they charge you to go upstairs.

Review №26

Oh wow! This venue is great! The sound is amazing in there. The bar has a lot of options, (in my opinion). The staff was really helpful and kind. They had an outdoor smoke spot. In the outdoor smoking area, I dont think they allow drinks. I would definitely go here again!

A decent little venue. I saw The Head & The Heart here for my first visit tonight. I arrived early & got a seat off to the side of center stage. The acoustics were just okay. I wish the sound had been better, but the bar service was good & they have a coat check for $5 cash.

Pretty cool spot but it seemed like the sound system was never quite right. Smaller venue but still fun. On a side note, Garbage was great!

Review №32

I used to absolutely love everything about this place. It is still okay but now after the remodel they try and nickel and dime everyone to death. 50-30 bucks to go up on the balcony? That used to be one of the best parts fighting your way up top and standing on the stairs to watch the show. You cant even see the show from the stairs now. You pay 30 bucks to get a balcony spot and you cant even use the bathroom or get a beer? Whos great idea was that? The new bathrooms are really nice for a shopping mall or movie theater. Super cool that their all more stalls but whats with all the super light Princess colors and generic plastic upcoming events display on the stall doors? Where did all the grungy metal stuff go? The bathrooms should be dark colors with all the old badass posters they used to have. Put some giant album covers on the stall doors make it grungy. Those bathrooms have no character anymore... Remember the audience you are serving.

Great sound and lighting. Carters well to audiences big and medium. Lines for bathroom, bar and pizza were all quick to get even when sold out.Too many upcharges (Balcony, skip the line).

What an amazing venue! Such an awesome feel to it and the sound system is on point. Metal is still very much alive and it is places like this that are making that happen. Very friendly staff and great vibes from everyone. I look forward to many more visits!

Great time at the MIW show. Probably the only venue I havent been to in Denver, but great for a pretty big crowd, bars too. Upper balcony is awesome. Good sound too. Parking is only a block away, love the LODO area. Well be back.

I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Demons and Wizards at this venue. I had a phenomenal view from the balcony, as opposed to the general admission tickets I had originally purchased. It was an extreme relief to find out that balcony seats were available for purchase. The show and sound were superb and I highly recommend this venue when in Denver.

Ed
Review №42

Summit is my favorite venue for watching indoor concerts. The sound system is great and you’ll catch an up-close, unobstructed view of the band from numerous locations. The drinks are reasonably priced and the food they serve is actually quite good. I highly recommend attending a concert here.

Review №47

This was quite an awesome venue to be at. I honestly have never been to this one before but have seen plenty of shows in Denver. The sound was amazing, the bar is not totally out of the way. Even from farther in the back I could still get a great view of the artists. I think I will definitely be coming back to Summit for more shows.

Review №48

Great all-around venue. Saw Mogwai there the other night and it was a great setting for the band. Large enough that you dont feel claustrophobic, but small enough that the sound hits you just right. The interior is very modern and well kept. I look forward to seeing more concerts there in the future.

Went to see Sabrina Claudio here and had a positive experience. The cocktails were good; nice dance floor and sitting area on the main floor and 2nd level. I wouldnt mind coming back here for another concert.P.s. be careful, there are a lot of homeless people near the summit, this is an issue in the downtown area.

I mainly go for the metal concerts. The drinks are pretty pricey but Ive seen worse. The last time I went, it sucked because the bathrooms were out of order! But its a great place to thrash and then get the hell out of there. Its downtown so its easy to grab a great bite to eat after without driving.

Great little small venue for up and coming artists! Reasonable drink prices and food which is such a rarity! It makes it easier to buy tickets here because you know you wont go home bankrupt at the end of the night over drink prices.

This is a great venue, however they do not like to serve water. They will, but they will make you feel bad about it and not give you ice. Especially the guy in the hat.

Review №69

A lot more spacious since their renovations! It’s an awesome venue with a bar. Parking is a little hard to find but if you know the area there’s side streets that you can easily park on. The only downside is that they charge $20 a head to get upstairs onto the balcony which seems ridiculous especially because a lot of the artists that play here are appreciated by teenagers who’s parents may want to accompany them without joining in on a mosh pit. The balcony was a great chill spot to watch the show if you didn’t want to be right in the middle of it. Hopefully they stop once they make back the money from the renovations.

Summit used to be one of my favorite venues in Denver, but after the Live Nation corporate takeover, this place has lost all humbleness. 8° weather, and they dont even bother having a coat check for people. I dont know if they want fans to either catch hypothermia from outside, or to suffer from heat stroke inside. Either way, its a poor business move.

I wish they would turn on the AC. Sweltering in there. Otherwise the venue is nice and open and you can pretty much see from every angle. Absolutely no seating though.

Review №73

I love this venue. Really tall ceilings, good size, not too big not too small, easy to see from most places. Plus you can take the FF4 directly to the front steps from Boulder!!!!! ALSO THEY HAVE PIZZA BY THE SLICE! Reasonable prices for a concert venue. I saw Smino last night and he was amazing!!!!! Everyone was dancing and the vibes were very fun. I am not a big metal/punk fan so idk if I will get the chance to go again. I hope so!

Review №74

Went to a sold put gramatik show recently, first time at the summit and I was impressed with such a small venue having two bars, and bathroom stall doors that actually close(what a concept). Sound system was great except for the side areas, they need more/better speakers for the sides as I couldn’t hear a lot of important high notes in the songs. If you’re paying to be there, there should not be a single spot where the music doesn’t sound good, just sayin.

This place used to be cool before Live Nation bought them out. Charging 20 bucks to sit upstairs on the balcony and 30 dollars for a re-entry fee for an event thats 10 hours.. I will never support this venue or Live Nation ever again.

Great performers, but poor location. Small, seemed over occupied/crammed, upstairs is VIP only, no set line for merch, staff did not regulate the event at all, messy, stage not high enough to see and no information provided on website. Does not state that there is no assigned seats and that upstairs space is VIP only. Will not be attending this place again.
