Unveiling the Ultimate Music Travel Bucket List: From Abbey Road to Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Music fans from around the world have unveiled their ultimate travel bucket list, with some truly iconic destinations topping the charts. The list includes everything from Colorado's breathtaking Red Rocks Amphitheatre to London's legendary Abbey Road crossing, offering something for every music lover.

A recent poll of 2,000 music enthusiasts revealed the top 20 landmarks every music lover should see, with Paisley Park in Minnesota, Prince's former recording studio, the Las Vegas Sphere, and the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland also making the cut.

A Journey Through Music History

Dollywood, a tribute to country music legend Dolly Parton, also made the list. The survey found that 38% of participants believe it's crucial to visit these iconic venues at least once, with the average music fan having already ticked off two dream destinations.

The Red Rocks Amphitheatre Experience

Beer brand Coors commissioned the research after sending best mates Sam Thompson and Pete Wicks on a whirlwind 72-hour adventure to its birthplace, Colorado, to experience a gig at the renowned Red Rocks Amphitheatre. The pair faced a series of challenges across various locations, including tackling heights, rapids, off-roading and an open-mic night in Denver, all culminating in a final test at the iconic Amphitheatre where they enjoyed a once-in-a-lifetime performance from GRAMMY-nominated Icelandic rockers, KALEO.

Sam Thompson expressed his excitement about the trip to Colorado with his best mate Pete, saying: “When we were told Pete and I were being sent to Colorado I was over the moon. I had visions of us living our best cowboy lives and experiencing a true taste of the USA – which of course includes some great music.”

He continues by saying: “Taking part in these different challenges was so much fun, especially doing it alongside my best mate as this made the whole experience so much more worthwhile. There are some amazing music venues in the world, with Red Rocks definitely being one of them - it was truly epic.”

What Makes a Gig Legendary?

The study revealed that the venue (24%), atmosphere (44%), and crowd (12%) were ranked among the top factors that enhance the overall experience.

But above all, 29% of respondents believe the company you're with is an important factor in making a music experience memorable. 38% of those surveyed believe attending a music festival or experience can help strengthen friendship and family bonds.

A whopping 89% agreed that being present at the event is crucial in strengthening these bonds, with 75% preferring to enjoy the event without the distraction of a mobile phone.

Music, Memories, and Nostalgia

When asked what they most associate music with, 20% said it takes them back to when they first met their partner. However, 19% relate it to when they experienced their first heartbreak, and 13% reminisce on a road trip with their best friend.

The Power of Music Experiences

According to the data from OnePoll.com, the genres music lovers enjoy the most included pop (58%), rock (54%), and country (20%).

Helen Jones, a representative at Molson Coors, which is sharing the adventures of Sam and Pete across its social channels, stated: “We believe fresh music experiences in unique locations adds another dimension to listening to live music which is more immersive and atmospheric.”

“These powerful music experiences create unforgettable moments in our lives especially when you get to experience them with your friends or family.”

The Soundtrack of Our Lives
