Summer nights in Winter Park are special—but Thursday nights? That’s when the town truly comes alive. From June 19 through August 28, 2025, the Rendezvous Event Center hosts High-Note Thursdays, a free summer concert series that brings locals and visitors together in one unforgettable weekly tradition.
From the moment the music kicks off at 6:00 PM, you’ll feel it—the energy, the excitement, the joy of being outside in the mountains with great music and a friendly crowd. Whether you’re just visiting or a longtime resident, these Thursday nights are your invitation to slow down, listen in, and connect.
This isn’t just a concert. It’s a full experience. Pack a picnic, grab your favorite drink, and bring along some friends. Chairs are provided, so no need to bring seating. The crisp alpine air, the open sky, and the vibrant sounds of live music combine to create a setting that’s as relaxing as it is memorable.
Just remember—this event is for everyone, so leave the pets, smoking, and vaping behind. The goal is to keep the atmosphere clean, safe, and welcoming for all.
What to Expect This Season
Each week, a new artist or group takes the stage, offering a fresh mix of musical styles—from funk and soul to acoustic rock and electric strings. With a professional setup and a scenic mountain backdrop, the Rendezvous Event Center is an ideal place to enjoy great live performances.

Select nights also feature the High-Note Market, where you’ll find local vendors, fresh food, crafts, and a taste of Winter Park’s creative small business scene. If you’re lucky, you might walk away with more than just a good time—you could discover a favorite new snack, piece of art, or handmade souvenir.
Shows will only be canceled if a rain delay pushes beyond 7:30 PM, so come prepared for Colorado’s always-unpredictable weather. Either way, it’s part of the fun.
Make It a Night (or a Weekend) to Remember
A good concert can lift your mood. But pairing it with the right stay? That’s how you make a memory.
If you’re planning to attend one or more High-Note Thursday shows this season, consider turning it into a mini getaway. After an evening of music and community, coming home to a cozy, private space makes all the difference.
That’s where The Jabberwocky comes in.
Our vacation home is nestled right in Winter Park, just minutes from the Rendezvous Event Center. Whether you’re visiting solo, as a couple, or with a group, you’ll find everything you need to relax, recharge, and make the most of your mountain experience.

Instead of driving back late or staying somewhere generic, you could be sipping tea on the deck, talking about the concert under the stars.
