Global Dance Music Star to Play the Largest Headlining Show of His Career at Historic Stadium
BOULDER, CO — John Summit, one of the most electrifying names in global dance music, will headline Folsom Field in Boulder on Saturday, October 18, 2025, marking the largest solo show of his career and a monumental moment for electronic music in Colorado.
The performance will take place at the iconic 50,000+ capacity Folsom Field, home of the University of Colorado Buffaloes and host to legendary acts including The Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, Phish, ODESZA, and The Grateful Dead. With stunning views of the Rocky Mountains and nearly a century of cultural history, Folsom Field offers an unparalleled setting for what is poised to be one of Colorado's most anticipated live music events of 2025.
The event is presented by AEG Presents Rocky Mountains, in partnership with CU Boulder, and follows Summit's sold-out takeovers at Red Rocks, Madison Square Garden, and his Experts Only festival series in Vail, CO. Known for chart-topping hits like "Where You Are" and "Go Back," Summit will bring his signature energy to one of the nation's most iconic open-air venues.
ABOUT JOHN SUMMIT:
John Summit is one of the most sought-after names in global dance music. The superstar DJ, producer, and label owner has nearly one billion all time global streams across his catalog, two #1 US dance radio hits, two Top 10 tracks on the Billboard Hot Electronic/Dance Songs chart, and sold-out shows across the globe, including BMO Stadium in Los Angeles (22,000) in the fall of 2023 and Madison Square Garden (17,000) in New York City coming up later this summer, with tickets selling out in under two hours. Whether he's headlining a sold-out show or an intimate club, the Chicago native, now based in Miami, brings his signature brand of high-octane spirit everywhere he goes. However, behind the larger-than-life persona is a thoughtful, detail-oriented artist who once worked as a CPA by day and taught music production tutorials by night. As a recording artist, he logs long hours in the studio, perfecting each of his dynamic songs. He's toured the world, closing out huge festivals including headlining the Sahara Stage at Coachella 2024, and putting on his own shows in unparalleled locations like the slopes of Vail Mountain and the Caverns in Tennessee as part of his label Experts Only. One of the top touring acts in the world, Summit also has a keen interest in the underground scene, and Experts Only is part of his commitment to platforming the next generation of dance music talent. With global hits "Where You Are" (feat. HAYLA), "Human" (feat. Echoes) and "Go Back" w/ Sub Focus (feat. Julia Church) under his belt, Summit is set to release his hugely anticipated debut album Comfort In Chaos, on July 12th via Experts Only/Darkroom. The album, encapsulating themes of vice and virtue, highs and lows, total human duality, sees the artist revealing the man behind the icon, injecting his usual body-first approach to dance music with genuine heart and emotion. Summit is set to only get even bigger this year, all while releasing a body of work that's rare in musical ingenuity and uncompromising in its memoir-like tone and texture
