In Downtown Loveland, Colorado, there are a cast of characters/local legends, much like in any Downtown. For example, when I pop into spots in Downtown, people know me as "Radio Dave." Another of Downtown's characters, Lance Davis, will be putting on his 6th annual event during Labor Day weekend.

What is the 'Lanceapalooza' Music Festival in Loveland, Colorado?

In 2020, Lance, an IT Specialist who lives in Downtown Loveland, and his friend Dasha Jesse came up with the idea of hosting a little "music festival" to celebrate his birthday: A few bands, some drinks, some food.

That first "Lanceapalooza" went so well for the live music enthusiasts, that they've held one every year since.

Where Does the 2025 'Lanceapalooza' Happen?

The 2025 "Lanceapalooza" will happen at 310 North Cleveland in Downtown, in what once held Christ's Church of the Rockies. The building is now a community events center.
