ConcertQueue is the easiest way to discover and share concerts in Denver. Built for music fans who go to shows often, ConcertQueue brings Denver's live music calendar into one clean discovery feed: It's not easy to check every venue, promoter, and calendar by hand. SWIPE THROUGH DENVER SHOWS Browse upcoming concerts from 25+ Denver-area venues in one place. Swipe through the queue, mark shows as Going, Interested, or Pass, and build a personal concert calendar around the artists and venues you actually care about. Tap into each show for key details, then see which friends are going so you can plan your next night out faster. YOUR CONCERT HISTORY Log the shows you have been to. ConcertQueue asks "did you go?" after shows on your schedule, keeps your lifetime and yearly totals, and lets you add past shows you attended. FROM CLUBS TO AMPHITHEATERS ConcertQueue tracks real shows across the Denver live music scene, including: • Outdoor amphitheaters along the Front Range and mountain corridor • Central Denver theaters, ballrooms, and mid-size venues • Small clubs, late-night rooms, and underground spaces • Arenas and stadiums for major touring acts • Suburban venues across the Denver metro New shows are added as they are announced. BUILT FOR DENVER MUSIC FANS ConcertQueue is for the person who opens their phone on Friday afternoon and realizes they somehow missed three shows they would have loved. It is for the friend who always knows what's happening next weekend. It is for friends trying to decide where everyone is going. And it is for anyone who loves live music but hates digging through scattered venue calendars to find it. POWERFUL GENRE FILTERS Dial in the exact kind of shows you want to see. Filter by 14 major genres, including Electronic, Rock, Indie, Pop, Country, Hip-Hop, Jam, Folk, Metal, R&B, Latin, Funk, Reggae, and Classical. Want only House, Techno, and Bass under Electronic? Emo and Pop-Punk under Rock? Jamgrass under Jam? ConcertQueue lets you narrow the feed without losing the bigger picture of what's happening in Denver. SEE WHERE YOUR FRIENDS ARE GOING ConcertQueue includes a simple social layer built around real mutual friendships. Search by @username, send a friend request, and see each other's concert schedules. No follower counts. No popularity contests. No algorithm trying to keep you scrolling. Just a better way to answer the question: "Who's going to this?" SMART, OPTIONAL NOTIFICATIONS Get opt-in push notifications when: • A friend accepts your request • A show you're going to is cancelled • Your friends start joining the same show Notifications are controlled from Settings, so you decide what matters. PRIVACY-FIRST BY DESIGN ConcertQueue is built to help you find shows, not track your life. We collect your email and @username for sign-in and display, your swipe decisions and concert history, friendships, venue and genre preferences, a profile photo if you choose to add one, a device token for notifications you opt into, and basic analytics. We do not use location tracking, ad identifiers, or contact uploads. You can delete your account from Settings at any time. MADE IN DENVER ConcertQueue is built by a Denver music fan, for Denver music fans. ConcertQueue is independently developed and is not affiliated with any venue, ticketing platform, artist, or promoter whose concerts appear in the app. All trademarks belong to their respective owners.
