Fire up those grills folks, because it’s time for another Deadbeats Backyard Jamboree! As Zeds Dead gears up for another legendary two-night event of Deadrocks 11 at Red Rocks Amphitheater on July 2nd and 3rd, the Canadian duo releases the official lineup for the Backyard Jamboree. Returning for its fifth edition at Denver’s Civic Center Park on July 4th, 2025, a festival that started as a modest appreciation for their fans and has grown into a music festival for a community of more than 10,000 people.

Concluding a three-day takeover in the City of Denver, this all-ages event is a family-friendly hoedown for everyone. Featuring all-day performances, local vendors, and traditional lawn games, it has become a hallmark of the Deadbeats’ Colorado calendar—inviting fans of all ages to enjoy food, fun, and exceptional vibes right in the city’s heart. The 2025 performance lineup showcases an impressive array of beloved artists and emerging talent, such as Ravenscoon, Cool Customer, Villager, Nikita, The Wicked, Skellytn, Don Jamal, Noises, Soki, Keenan Mathias, and Papajay.

Hot Damn!

Following their first album release in almost a decade, Return to the Spectrum of Intergalactic Happiness, this year’s Jamboree promises to be unforgettable. Experimental Space Bass artist Ravenscoon was the first to be announced just a few weeks ago. After an impressive 25-date tour for his Glass Orchid album and a sold-out performance at the Mission Paulroom, this producer adds a new layer of excitement to the backyard festivities. Another highlight is the inclusion of rising Glitch-Hop star Cool Customer, who might keep you on hold, but the wait is definitely worthwhile!

This family-friendly environment offers plenty of space for so many activities! First and foremost, one can’t forget the legendary Deadbeats hot dog eating contest, known as the largest face-stuffer west of the Mississippi. Other activities include dunk tanks, three-legged races, donuts on a string, and much more. Food trucks, crafts, and local vendors will also be featured. Imagine that childhood family reunion you always attended, but 20 times more fun, complete with the signature Deadbeats twist!
