Alan Jackson played Denver’s famed Red Rocks Amphitheatre on Thurs, June 28, and recognized the devastation Colorado is currently experiencing with wildfires by helping raise funds for relief.
Jackson partnered with AEG and KYGO/Denver to offer front row reserved seats at a special premium price, donating all proceeds to the Denver Foundation for use by the Colorado Wildfire Relief Fund. KYGO announced the tickets were available on the morning of the show and within hours, several thousand dollars had been raised.
“It’s just the saddest thing. I’m just heart broke about all the fires out here,” Jackson told the audience from the stage. “We really appreciate all the great people that have been helping them out here.”
Donations for wildfire disaster relief efforts can be made by calling 1-800-RED-CROSS or by visiting the Colorado chapter’s website at www.coloradoredcross.org.
