Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

08/26/2023 Very nice amphitheater. Parking was actually easy and even the line/security was easy to get through despite there not being many workers or guards there, which was nice. Each area seemed to have a great view of the stage and bands. The one thing that I didn't like was the fact that no one working there could seem to tell us where to find the merch table on-time, so I didn't get the stuff that came with my Mudvayne premium seating which made the little bit of extra money that I paid worthless. We finally found it at the end of the night for our Butcher Babies VIP, but it was too late to even attempt to get my premium stuff. The bands were all incredible and the sound was good. The drinks were overpriced but that's nothing new for any type of event. The pit area was small so I’m uncertain if it was that or just the crowd, but there was no good moshing action which was sad. At least no one tried to make a stupid “circle pit”. Good experience overall. I would go to watch more concerts here.

Worst experience - the lines to get in are always long and they are totally disorganized. I will never go there again and if you had to park, it is a disaster.

So there are some extreme flaws at Fiddlers, and we basically wasted $300 to not even be able to see any of the 4 bands from our more expensive accessible seats and ended up being so miserable that we left early.
First mistake was offering 12,000 tickets without enough employees to support the crowd on Thursday, 5-4-23 for the KBPI birthday bash with Godsmack. I missed half the concert in an almost 2 hour long line for merch. There was no cordoning of the 2 lines, so jerks who didn’t feel like waiting, cut in front of the entire line and nobody that worked there did anything about it. So the line stopped moving. When we attempted to say something about the people cutting in line to the 70 year old merch worker, she started yelling at us for speaking up. Nothing against older people, but if you can’t use the technology provided to run credit cards, then you have no business working with it. If you want to yell at others who paid money and who are about to spend more money on merch because you didn’t do anything about the people cutting, you have no business working that type of job. They weren’t even paying attention and just kept serving the people who cut, but I guess it’s all about the money, not the experience.
On that note is my biggest point of contention with Fiddlers. They charge more for their accessible seats, these seats are supposed to be for disabled people who want to see live music and are willing/able to pay the extra cost because, like me, they’re unable to stand up for hours to see a band like a normal human. While I think that’s discriminatory as heck, the biggest issue is that they put these accessible seating areas behind the way cheaper lawn seats. Which means you don’t get to even see the concert you spent extra money to see. There was no security guards to ensure that you could see the show, not even a sign for the lawn folks to read that says don’t stand in front of the accessible seating and they definitely didn’t rope it off in any manner whatsoever so people couldn’t stand in front of us. Between the almost 2 hours in the merch line and all the people standing, I maybe saw 45 mins of a concert that started at 6ish and ended after 11pm. But again, if they had roped off the area, they wouldn’t make as much money and the heck with you disabled people stupidly paying more for accessible seats and expecting to see the concert. The people who paid way less for their lawn seats than we did for accessible seats got a better experience than we did. Oh, and drunk people falling all over the accessible area isn’t exactly safe and nobody prevented that either. The older lady with the oxygen tank ended up with a drunk 20 year old in her lap.
I’ve had accessible seats in most of the venues in Denver and the surrounding area, our hobby is concerts, and in every single instance there were multiple signs and a security guard or concert worker that literally walked up to people who were blocking the accessible seats and made them move. Even the Fillmore and this old Bar venue in Fort Collins were accommodating of the people who were in the accessible seats. But Fiddlers does absolutely nothing except take your money and not provide anything you paid for.
Bottom line, if you are disabled, don’t go to fiddlers, and if you somehow decide that there’s a concert you just have to see, don’t expect to actually see the performance from accessible seating unless you can somehow stand with your disability. Unless you want to pay to watch the concert on the jumbo screens, cause that’s all you’re getting from Fiddlers, save your money and watch it live on tv, it’s about the same experience for about $300 less. I’ve attached pictures of my wonderful view from the accessible area.
I am very aware that the world is not friendly to people with disabilities, but if you’re going to charge more for that seating option, you need to make sure that those people actually get to see the concert they paid extra for. If you can’t guarantee that disabled concertgoers can see the show, you don’t need to charge extra. Definitely going to run this by the ADA though cause this seems so wrong.

Concert with lawn seats. I took the light rail and she drove. It’s an easy walk and being directionally challenged, I followed other people. Arrived and pulled up my app to access my tickets. My friend was at the south entrance so the ticket taker redeemed only one of my tickets so she could use the other. I walked over to the south entrance and let the ticket taker know I had my friend’s ticket. She walked up and gained admission after the ticket was scanned.
We walked around to check out the merchandise table, food stands and beverage options. Greek food, burgers, hot dogs, nachos and beer and cocktails. I was glad to see non-alcoholic options as well as I don’t drink a lot. And there were children in attendance. Got a large lemonade and she got a strawberry daiquiri. It was warm so we chugged our drinks while looking for a space on the lawn to spread the blanket. Ran into some friends so we sat by them.
It was nice laying there soaking up some sun while conversing and listening to music. We got upgraded to seats and when the sun went down went to find them. They were on the end which I liked as we could come and go as we please. We went to the restrooms and it was kept pretty clean. The paper towel dispensers were not all working and one door couldn’t be locked. One toilet was broken but there were porta potties as well to alleviate the stress of waiting. ATM and water dispenser available which was convenient. Also beverage stations in the concert area so we didn’t have to walk as far for a drink. Vendors carried some around too. Prices are comparable to other entertainment venues. Parking is available at paid lots. Prices were $15 or $20.
It was a lovely day for a concert and the heat went away as the sun went down. Great venue.

This place is so well organized I am amazed! The parking was easy and well coordinated. The vennue security was fast AND felt secure! The food options were a nice varity. The beverages would be the only thing I'd be a little 'ehh' about but it was still nothing to change the amazing experience!
BTW - Ziggy Marley and Jack Johnson put on fantastic shows.
I'm still blown away by the whole deal.

Went 2 nights to see Dave Matthews Band. The band was amazing as always, however $5.25 for a soda, $5-8 for a bottle water, $15 for a beer, $8.50-9 for a chicken sandwich, 8 for a hot dog, etc. is ridiculous. We spent more here than at the Melting Pot. Parking will cost around $20, unless you walk or uber. All staff are friendly though.

I paid $70 for a seat in section 201. I ended up sitting in the lawn. All the views from the lawn were excellent. Know that I know the layout I would always buy lawn tickets.
I arrived at 6 and concerted started at 7. Waiting in line for about 20 mins before the doors opened. Line moved quickly once gate opened.

Fiddler's Green Amphitheater is an amazing concert venue. The venue is well laid out, the staff are very friendly and helpful, and the sound throughout the venue is outstanding. There is great spacing between the seats, so you don't feel cramped. I really enjoyed the concert I saw here.

Purchased GA Pavilion for ODESZA sold-out show, however, there is no assigned seat info on our tickets (nor was there seat selection offered at time of purchase). So is GA Pavilion first-come-first-served? Or how does Fiddler's handle this?
How do they get the cars in

There is close parking. BE EARLY! People like to mingle and walk around. They have food trucks too.
Does anyone know if there is any vegetarian/vegan options available for food beside french fries? I can't eat dairy or meat so I'd like to know if anything is available for me.
