Four musicians perform a songwriters' round beneath the rose window as an audience looks on
Concerts & Performances

A Room That WasBuilt for Sound

Vaulted ceilings and a century of acoustics, with a built-in surround system and an audience of up to 125. Sloans Lake, Denver.

Why musicians play Merritt

Sanctuaries were the original concert halls

The hall was shaped for voices to carry, and it still does its best work with music in it. Songwriter rounds, album releases, chamber recitals, DJ nights, and dance parties have all run under the rose window. The surround system covers the room evenly, and the cafe lounge gives your audience somewhere to land between sets.

Included with public events

Going public? We promote it with you.

Any event you open to the public gets our co-promotion at no charge: a flyer on the community bulletin board, a listing on the What’s On calendar here on the site, and posts to our social channels. Our audience already comes here to find things to do; a public event starts with a crowd.

Tell Us About Your Show

Genre, date, expected crowd, and whether you are bringing a sound tech; or just ask for a tour, because acoustics do not photograph. We reply with availability, usually within one business day.
