Young the Giant’s Tour Finds Its Pinnacle at Red Rocks: Photos

Young the Giant’s stop at Red Rocks for the In the Open Tour was a breathtaking fusion of intimacy and electricity. The evening began with Saint Motel’s infectious energy and retro-pop grooves, warming up the crowd with vibrant visuals and danceable hooks. As twilight settled over the amphitheater, Young the Giant took the stage for a stripped-down acoustic set, letting the lyrics breathe in the open air. The second half erupted into a full-throttle greatest-hits performance, with the monolithic rocks echoing anthems like “My Body” and “Superposition.” It was a night of sonic storytelling, cultural reflection and pure musical transcendence.
