Between the months of May to the end of July, El Paso holds our annual concert series, Cool Canyon Nights. Every year it's a great turn out & if you HAVEN'T gone to a show, and you need a reason why, here's 5 reasons why you SHOULD.

The amazing talent you see every week

Every week you see two different acts perform; one at 6pm & another at 7pm. We've seen some amazing local talent throughout the years including Feline Fox, Tony Ramirez, Fungi Mungle, Mariachi Los Arrieros, Ooh La La, The Retro'z, Tribes among others. Not to mention we've had national acts come to town too like the Rocketman Experience, Juan Gabriel & Fire & Ice.

Come hungry because there's a ton of food

There's no shortage of food & drinks at Cool Canyon Nights; many local vendors/food trucks will bring their eats to make sure you don't go hungry.

The surprise moments that happen

Food & music aren't the only things you're bound to see: sometimes... you never know WHAT to expect at Cool Canyon Nights,

Get there early because it gets PACKED inside the Canyon.

I'm not exaggerating either. The parking lot gets full quickly,

And then once you're INSIDE, it's also packed if you're late to the show. Not to mention the VIP tickets for the shows usually end up selling out so that's another to really try to get to the Canyon as soon as possible.

 Don't forget you don't need to pay to get inside for Cool Canyon Nights

It's a completely free show. So you're needing an excuse to party after work, the party's always happening on Thursdays in the Canyon. BUT...like I said before, it gets PACKED QUICKLY so I strongly advise you to get there early so you get a good spot.
