CU Events Center tickets & upcoming events

Looking for a lively spot that really gets the crowd going? The CU Events Center in Boulder is just that place. Opened back in the late 1970s, it’s been the heartbeat of CU basketball and other big events for decades. I mean, they’ve hosted everything from intense men's basketball games to high school wrestling tournaments that fill the place with energy. The arena is also where you’ll find the cheerleaders and dancers hyping up the crowd during CU Buffs games, it’s pretty contagious. If you’ve ever been near the campus bookstore and head west along Folsom Road, you’ll spot the concert hall just on your right, but don’t forget about the Events Center itself. It’s not just a basketball arena; it’s a hub for concerts, student events, and even special nights where front-row ticket holders might get cool souvenirs. The student section? Always a blast, with themed nights and group chants that make you feel like part of the action. And if you’re into concerts, the place is perfect for that too. They partner with local artists and band acts that bring the house down, and the seating chart is super interactive, so you can pick exactly where you want to sit, whether that’s front and center or a more budget-friendly spot. Bottom line, if you’re into live events that make you feel like you’re right there in the middle of it all, the CU Events Center is where you want to be.
