 Denver hosts a great and rich history of culture, and continues to remain a true testament to "Colorful Colorado". While Denver may not be as recognized for historical musical prominence like such cities as Seattle, Los Angeles, Detroit, or New York City, it still manages to have a very active pop, jazz, and classical music scene, which has nurtured several artists and genres to regional, national, and even international attention. Though nearby Boulder, Colorado has its own very distinct music scene, artists based there also play in Denver.(Information provided by Wikipedia .)
If you are looking at visiting, Denver certainly offers the best to its visitors.

Like the Chambers Grant Salon at the Newton Auditorium and the Buell Theatre's Wolf Room, the Nathaniel Merrill Founder’s Room also will be available for rent to individuals, businesses and non-profit organizations for meetings and parties. Funding for the design and construction of the new event and meeting space is being provided through Theatres and Arenas’ capital budget.
