Coors Amphitheatre Back to Fiddler's Green

Two decades ago, an outdoor amphitheatre was created in the heart of Greenwood Village. The gods saw that it was good and named it Fiddler's Green. In recent years, it's been known as Coors Amphitheatre -- even though a great many stubborn locals still called it Fiddler's. Well, good news...

Two decades ago, an outdoor amphitheatre was created in the heart of Greenwood Village. The gods saw that it was good and named it Fiddler's Green. In recent years, it's been known as Coors Amphitheatre -- even though a great many stubborn locals still called it Fiddler's. Well, good news for all you old school purists. We've just learned that the Coors deal has expired and the shed is now officially back to being known as Fiddler's Green. (You hear that, Invesco Field? Watch your back).
