Record-Breaking Schedules Put Venues to the Test 

With 222 shows on the calendar, Red Rocks highlights the growing complexity of live entertainment, and why streamlined payroll and compliance are more critical than ever. 

Red Rocks Amphitheatre is set to host 222 events this year, coming close to its all-time record of 228 in 2022. And it’s not just Red Rocks. Across the country, venues are packing their calendars to meet skyrocketing demand. Live entertainment is running at full capacity. 

For production managers, tour accountants, and event organizers, that growth brings more than packed houses. It means more complex payroll, stricter compliance, and zero margin for error in managing bigger crews and longer runs.
