Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Goodness gracious! Next year is already shaping up to be one of the most anticipated concert seasons in recent memory. Here's another absolutely killer show to add to your growing itinerary. We've just learned that Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are kicking off their tour at the 1STBANK Center on Thursday, April 19. No word yet on when tickets for this one will go on sale, but we'll certainly keep you posted. In the meantime, page down to bask in some classic Petty.

Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
