Phish Provide Update on Parking Limitations at Colorado Shows Due to Prairie Dog Plague Threat

3:17 PM EDT on August 28, 2019


This Friday, Aug. 30, Phish will open up their annual three-night Labor Day weekend run at Dick's Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City, CO, and in the wake of the band canceling fan camping at the shows, the band has shared an update on the parking limitations for concert-goers this weekend.

"Due to the ongoing issues affecting local prairie dog colonies, many of the non-paved lots at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park (DSGP) are unavailable for concert parking," a statement reads, referring to the area's ongoing problem with plague-infected burrowing animals. "While there will be a significant amount of parking available at DSGP, some off-site parking will be required."

Phish and DSGP also provided a number of tips and suggestions for fans, including carpooling, off-site parking, using ride-share services and taxis, and more. Read the full statement in the Facebook post below, which also includes maps of the inaccessible areas surrounding the venue.

After this weekend's Dick's run, Phish are off the road until they reconvene for a short fall tour that kicks off Nov. 29. Check out the band's full schedule here.
