The popular summertime tradition isn’t necessarily “cheap”, but it sure makes for a memorable night of fun under the stars. Denver Film and Denver Arts & Venues are hosting their 26th season of Film on the Rocks at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre. The film line-up includes cult classics, pop culture hits and past fan-favorites.
