Summer concert announcements are rolling out, from Red Rocks to Levitt Pavilion, and new city festivals such as Punk in the Park have everyone counting down the days until they've got live music blasting in their faces.

Now yet another new festival has been announced: The Unhinged Festival will take place at the National Western Stockyards on Saturday, July 26, and Sunday, July 27, and the offerings promise a blast for both metal and craft-beer enthusiasts.

This will be the first-ever Unhinged Festival, a collaboration between AEG and Brew Ha Ha Productions, which is known for combining heavy music and craft brews at such events as Punk in Drublic and its highly anticipated upcoming production, Punk in the Park.

“We’re thrilled to kick off the Unhinged brand in Denver alongside the incredible team at AEG Rocky Mountains,” says the festival's creator and producer, Cameron Collins of Brew Ha Ha Productions. “This partnership allows us to create something truly unique for fans in Colorado, and we look forward to expanding the Unhinged experience to new markets across the country.”

There will be more than 25 bands on two stages, with no overlapping set times so that you can take in as much music as you want...when you're not tasting beer, that is. Those craft-beer tastings will be available via a $15 ticket add-on from noon to 3 p.m. on both days of the festival.
