Many people drive past The Ranch Events Complex without realizing how big of a role it plays in Loveland’s economy and weekend activity.

The complex spans hundreds of thousands of square feet of event space and hosts everything from concerts to expos to sporting events.

It’s also home to Blue Arena, the 7,500-seat venue where major touring shows and the Colorado Eagles play.

Events like touring concerts, fairs, and festivals bring thousands of visitors into Loveland every year — which means packed restaurants, busy breweries, and a lot of economic ripple for local businesses.

Why it matters this weekend:

When a major show rolls through town, it turns a normal Saturday into a full-night downtown energy boost.

That’s why a lot of locals build their night around it:

Dinner → show → brewery stop.

If you’ve never made a night of it at The Ranch, this weekend is a good excuse to try.

Meet Blue and I am a rambunctious young guy looking for an active home. I have a good history with kids and other dogs but will need a home with older kids so I don't accidentally knock over any little ones. I love to play with rope toys, go on walks and meet new people. I will do best in a house instead of an apartment because I like to talk which might bother the neighbors. I can't wait to meet you!

Spring weather swings can bring sudden snowmelt and slick roads across Larimer County. Check conditions before heading into the foothills.
