On a cold Friday night, November 1, 2024, Deadmau5 played a nearly sold out show at world famous Red Rocks amphitheater with opening act DJ Callie Reiff, who had the crowd dancing non-stop. Fans dressed in iconic rave wear with tons of lights, glitter, sparkles and more. No matter which area at the venue I was at, people had a fun, electric, dance vibe . This was an all ages event .

DJ Callie Reiff, who is a very young DJ gave an outstanding performance . If you are able to catch her set, you are in for a treat. After her set, Joel Zimmerman AKA Deadmau5 walked on stage without the iconic helmet head.

The stage played clips and images of Joel’s career for the last 25 years to share with his fans. As the music started playing, he had a few celebrity friends on stage with him to play some music along by his side including Tommy Lee, which was a big surprise . Deadmau5 played a long set for night 1 and played most of his greatest hits .

As fans partied and danced together it turned out to be a packed house with a traditional rave vibe for all ages to enjoy. The merch had limited commemorative posters, tee shirts, hoodies and more.
