COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — The Sunset Amphitheater going up in north Colorado Springs will soon have a different name. Notes Live, the company building the outdoor music venue, tells us a national company has bought the naming rights.
The venue, which was first proposed in September of 2022, received pushback from neighbors in the Northgate neighborhood.
