On paper, Fiddler's Green Amphitheatre faces the wrong way for shade. The stage points east-northeast toward its seating, which turns the Englewood crowd back toward the west-southwest, the same general side of the sky the July evening sun occupies, west-northwest at about 15 degrees when a 7:00 PM show starts. In practice the venue handles it well: our model scores a typical evening show 78 percent shaded overall.
The strength is down front and under cover. Pits 2 and 3 grade out at 94 percent shaded across an evening show, and pavilion sections 108, 109, 110, and 209 match them at 94. With numbers like those, the low western light is scenery rather than a problem for most ticketed seats.
Lawns 1 through 4 each measure 63 percent shaded, a sunny opening stretch that shrinks steadily until sunset at 8:26 PM. Because the crowd is angled toward the sun's side of the sky, the lawn's exposure comes with glare attached; sunglasses and a hat do more good here than at venues where the sun sits behind the audience. Colorado's high, dry light is strong for its angle, so keep the sunscreen honest for that first hour.
From 6:00 PM the venue-wide figure is 54 percent shaded, which makes the early wait the sunniest part of the night at Fiddler's Green Amphitheatre. Arrive with the sun in mind, and let the schedule do the rest, every evening show ends in shade, and one that runs past 8:26 PM ends in the dark.
