Garth Brooks returns to Denver for the biggest event in the history of the Broncos stadium with tickets.

Brooks will perform in front of a crowd of 84,000 on Saturday, breaking U2's record of 77,000 tickets in 2011.

Brooks shared his enthusiasm to be back in Denver Friday, saying the concert "will be a party".

He said that he was performing recently in Pittsburgh in front of a packed house, when someone asked him if it would be better than that.

"Are you making fun of me?" Answered Brooks. "We are going to Denver."

Brooks played for the last time in Denver for the 2017 Colorado Music Hall of Fame. He played at Grizzly Rose and other small venues in Colorado early in his career and said he has always enjoyed the Coloradans' enthusiasm for his music.

"It's a bit like that it all started," he said about Denver.

"People were the greatest for us" in Colorado, said Brooks. It does not matter if he plays in a dive bar, at a fair or in a stadium, he knows that playing in Colorado will be "a good time guaranteed".

Brooks stopped touring the stadiums for more than a decade as his children grew up. He returned in 2014. He told her that letting him take time, as well as welcoming him back, is the greatest gift that his fans have made. him.

Brooks will play songs from his new vinyl cabinet "Legacy". He also has a new song with Blake Shelton, "Dive Bar".

But he promised to play his old hits, such as "Friends In Low Places" and "The Dance". "Friends In Low Places", one of Brooks' most popular songs, remains a staple of country radio stations and karaoke bars. Brooks even sang karaoke himself, but said that the night he had sung it, he was not even the best of the room.

"There was a guy who came and sang (" Friends in Low Places "), and I was stunned," said Brooks.

The stadium car park for the event is exhausted and city officials invite concertgoers to use public transport, carpools and bicycles at the stadium. Additional wagons will be added to the C and E tram lines from 17.00. and continue until the stadium empties after the concert.

The transparent bag policy will be in effect for the concert, as participants can only bring one-gallon transparent bags into the stadium.

The weather might not cooperate, with thunder, lightning and rain a possibility for Saturday night, according to the National Meteorological Service. Participants must be prepared with rain equipment. Brooks said he hoped that the thunder did not happen (except in his music) but that "we will play in the rain all night".
