A red glow emanated from music and performing arts venues across the country the night of September 1. It was all part of the #RedAlertRESTART campaign to bring attention to the ongoing crisis facing the live events industry due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Over 50 venues in Colorado participated, lighting their buildings up from 9 p.m. to midnight.
Duncan Goodman is the owner of Cervantes Masterpiece Ballroom and The Other Side, two popular Denver music destinations. “We are one of the many venues that has been shut down going on six months now,” he said.
Goodman's venues participated in the Red Alert campaign to draw attention to the fact that the live events industry desperately needs help.
