Better Together Denver, a volunteer-run, 501(c)(4) organization focused on increasing civic engagement among Denver, CO residents, has announced a free voter registration concert on October 12th in partnership with Denver’s Levitt Pavilion featuring a DJ set by Dominic Lalli of Colorado-based electronic act Big Gigantic. The non-partisan event, billed as Make Your Vote GIGANTIC, aims to “inspire all eligible voters, regardless of background or political beliefs, to register to vote and take part in the upcoming election.”
The event is free for attendees who show proof of their updated voter registration status. Attendees who aren’t registered will have the opportunity to do so on-site with the support of the Denver Elections Division. Attendees can also register online through the Colorado Secretary of State’s website. People who are not eligible to vote will also be able to gain free entry to the show with alternative actions related to civic participation.
“We’re thrilled to have Big Gigantic headline this event, combining the power of music with the importance of voting,” said Uriel Berrum, event co-chair and Better Together Denver board member. “This is more than just a concert, and we hope this night leaves people energized and ready to make their voices heard this upcoming election.”
Recent statistics show a significant gap in voter participation between Denver’s younger residents and their older counterparts. While the median age in Denver is 35, the median voter age is 50. During the 2023 municipal election, only 22% of registered voters aged 18–34 participated, highlighting the importance of events like this to bridge the gap and ensure a representative democracy.
“At Better Together Denver, we believe every voice matters and every vote counts,” added Lizzy Lee, event co-chair and Better Together Denver board member. “This event, in partnership with Levitt Pavilion and Big Gigantic, is about making civic engagement fun and accessible, and empowering young people to use their voices. By helping bridge the gap in voter participation, we’re building a more representative democracy and future for our city.”
As this event is non-partisan in nature, the display, distribution, or use of any official campaign materials, campaign signage, or active promotion of any political causes or candidates will be strictly prohibited on the premises. Doors open at 5:00 p.m. MT on Saturday, October 12th, with the show scheduled to begin at 6:00 p.m. MT.
This event is made possible by the generosity of sponsors including Levitt Denver, City Council District 7 (Councilwoman Flor Alvidrez), Colorado Secretary of State, Denver Elections Division, Strae Advisory Services, Effct.org, ScholarLead.com, Chad Asarch, All In Denver, Auraria Higher Education Center, Metropolitan State University of Denver, Corazon Printing, Montbello Organizing Committee, MG Public Affairs, Production Services International, Invisible City, and SideCar Public Relations.
