A great night out starts before you take your seat. 

This season, the Union Colony Civic Center (UCCC) is bringing an exciting lineup of concerts, comedy, Broadway favorites and family-friendly entertainment to downtown Greeley. With names like Chris Young, Kansas, Jay Leno, Celtic Thunder and The Book of Mormon on the calendar, there’s plenty to look forward to. And more show announcements to come for 2027! 

But don’t just make a night at the theater. Make a night of it in Greeley. 

The UCCC is located at 701 10th Avenue, right in the heart of downtown, putting you within easy reach of local restaurants, breweries, distilleries and other spots to visit before or after your show. Here’s what’s coming to the UCCC this season and a few ideas for turning your tickets into a full Greeley experience.

Start Your Night Downtown 

Got tickets? Give yourself some time before the curtain goes up. 

The UCCC is surrounded by plenty of local spots where you can grab dinner or a drink and turn your evening at the theater into a full night out. 

Grab Dinner Before the Show 

If you’re looking for a sit-down meal before heading to the UCCC, Meeker’s: A Colorado Kitchen & Bar is a great place to start. You can also head to Tres Amigos, where you’ll find Mexican favorites, margaritas and a lively atmosphere. 

Or keep it classic Tex-Mex with The Rio Grande Mexican Restaurant, a downtown Greeley staple for Mexican food and drinks. 

Give yourself enough time to enjoy your meal without having to rush to your seats. After all, the opening act shouldn’t be the first thing you’re enjoying that evening. 

Meet Up for a Drink 

Maybe dinner is already handled and you’re just looking for a place to meet up before the show. 

Greeley’s craft beverage scene has you covered. 477 Distilling offers craft spirits and cocktails in a laid-back setting, while Syntax Distillery is another downtown option for locally made spirits and creative drinks. 

Beer more your speed? Stop by WeldWerks Brewing Co. for a pint before heading over to the UCCC. 

And if you’re not ready for the night to end after the final curtain, these spots make it easy to keep the conversation going. 
 

Make It a Greeley Night 

The UCCC’s 2026-2027 season gives you plenty of reasons to put a date on the calendar. But the best part is that you don’t have to rush in for the show and head straight home afterward. 

Grab dinner. Meet friends for a drink. Take a walk downtown. Then settle into your seat for an evening of live entertainment. 

With more spring shows still to come, there are plenty of opportunities to make a night of it in Greeley.
