Cervantes' Masterpiece Ballroom is an independent live music venue in Denver, Colorado, with two rooms (Cervantes’ Ballroom and Cervantes’ Other Side) that offer live music and events simultaneously. It is located in Denvers' historic Five Points neighborhood. It was originally a live jazz venue by Benny Hooper called the Ex-Servicemen's Club.[1]

History

Over the years, the venue hosted famous musicians like Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Benny Goodman, B.B. King, Ray Charles and Ike and Tina Turner, and many more.[2]

Renovated in 2003, Cervantes' is known for featuring dubstep, electronica, hip-hop acts and DJs, along with bluegrass and jam-centric bands. More recent artists include the likes of Gov't Mule's Warren Haynes, Phish's Page McConnell, and Branford Marsalis, to name a few.[3]

Recent renovations were not without controversy. In particular, the Casino Cabaret's famous glass doorway was demolished, which led to pushback from community advocates. However, the iconic glass door entrance was restored in partnership with the Denver Landmark Preservation, while retaining the change from one doors to two.[4][5]
