About Gerald R Ford Park

Gerald R Ford Park is an outdoor amphitheater located in Ford Park, operated by the Vail Valley Foundation. With a total capacity of approximately 2,600–2,800 (1,265 pavilion seats and about 1,300 lawn spots), the venue hosts a mix of classical, contemporary, and seasonal performances. While renovations have refreshed the space since 2025, the venue continues to offer a vibrant lineup, including events like Bravo! Vail Music Festival, Vail Dance Festival, Amp Summer Concerts, and Mountain Games. We’ve got you covered with seating details, parking options, transportation, and nearby lodging and dining to help you secure your tickets and plan a smooth experience.

Practical tips: reserve your seats in the pavilion or arrive early for lawn seating. Parking is limited and paid at Ford Park, with ADA options available; additional paid parking is nearby. Free summer parking in Vail Village/Lionshead is complemented by shuttle service to the park. In-town bus service is free, and event-specific shuttles provide convenient connections, with regional options offered by Eagle County. For lodging, consider Arrabelle at Vail Square, The Sebastian, Lodge at Vail, Austria Haus, and other properties in Vail Village and Lionshead. When you’re ready to travel, we’ve lined up affiliate hotel and dining partners to help you plan your entire trip with ease.
