Nothing says “night out” quite like music, movement, and letting loose after hours.

In the Best of Summit, venues that excel here blend sound quality, atmosphere, and staying power—places where the party’s alive past sunset.

Dillon Amphitheater – Town of Dillon

Dillon Amphitheater sits on the shores of Lake Dillon, and the setting takes no prisoners when it comes to ambiance. After extensive renovations completed in 2018, it offers upgraded stage facilities, better green rooms and restrooms, and an improved concession layout. Free and ticketed shows fill its summer calendar—everything from Mountain Music Mondays with local and regional acts, to nationally touring headliners. The venue leans into both its natural views and its capacity (several thousand seats) to create moments that feel epic without being impersonal. At night the stage lights set off the lake, the crowd spreads lawn chairs, and dancing—if the music moves you—feels perfectly natural.

10 Mile Music Hall

10 Mile Music Hall in Frisco knows how to pack in the good times. It’s an indoor venue that combines energy and intimacy—lots of major shows, plus room for local, up-and-coming acts. With a full bar and patio, the hall offers a range of shows: rock, alternative, folk, cover bands and anything in between. On busy nights a diverse crowd gathers to eat, drink, listen and dance. The sound is clear, the atmosphere warm, the layout welcoming whether you’re front row or at the back.

Cecilia's Nightclub and Cocktail Bar

Cecilia’s is Breckenridge’s pulse after dark. What began as one of the first martini bars in town has evolved into a staple for dancing, DJs and late-night gatherings. Between themed nights—Latin, house, electronic—and cocktail craftsmanship, it offers a more focused nightlife energy. The club offers VIP spaces, multiple rooms with different vibes, and often pulls in DJ talent that keeps the beats coming into the early hours. Whether you want to dance hard or sip slow while watching people move, Cecilia’s is built to deliver both.
