Garth Brooks has expanded his upcoming Denver stop on the “Blame It All On My Roots” arena tour, adding two more performances at Ball Arena after the initial pair of concerts generated overwhelming demand. The newly added shows are scheduled for Sunday, Sept. 6, and Monday, Sept. 7, extending the Denver run to four consecutive performances. The additional dates follow a familiar strategy Brooks has used throughout his career, increasing the number of shows in a market rather than relying on resale pricing or larger venues.
An Instagram post reads: “DENVER!!! You just keep showing up, so we’re gonna keep showing up too!!! Garth’s adding a FOURTH and Final show!!!! Stay up late with us on Sunday!! Monday’s a holiday!!!!!! Get your tickets for the final show now Ticketmaster.com/GarthBrooks -Team Garth”
The Denver concerts mark the second stop on Brooks’ first major arena tour in roughly three decades, following a four-show kickoff in Indianapolis that also expanded after hundreds of thousands of fans joined the online ticket queue. The tour revisits the arena format that helped launch Brooks into superstardom during the 1990s, with the singer promising a more intimate experience than his recent stadium productions. As Brooks has said previously, “going back into the arenas is about putting the stadium show in a box. The excitement gets multiplied by the intimacy. Every seat is a great seat. This is personal.”
Tickets for the original Denver dates went on sale Friday through Ticketmaster, and Brooks has continued his long-standing “one fair price” approach, with no presales or advance box office sales and an eight-ticket purchase limit designed to give more fans equal access. Organizers have also encouraged concertgoers to sign into their Ticketmaster accounts before entering the virtual waiting room to improve their chances of securing seats.
The “Blame It All On My Roots” tour will feature Brooks’ biggest hits in the arenas where many of them first became concert staples while also serving as the basis for his upcoming “Killer Live” recording project, which aims to capture performances in real time. Denver also holds special significance for Brooks, whose record-setting 2019 concert at Empower Field at Mile High drew more than 84,000 fans. This time, he is returning to a smaller venue that he believes will create an even stronger connection with audiences.
