The venue is a little tricky to find, if you're in town a day earlier you may want to drive to the gates of the AA Barn. Google Maps will have you take a right on Canal View Drive off of highway 34, this takes you through a neighborhood. It is better to take 34 approximately another 1/2 mile and take a right on CR 66. From here stay straight and the road will take you to the barn. Another set of Directions: Once hitting intersection of Highway 40 and Highway 34, turn right on to Highway 34. Take 34 until you reach County Road 66 (you will pass Lake Granby) Take Country Rd 66 straight for a little bit. You'll cross the bridge and reach main gate for AA Barn. Exact Coordinates to the Venue are: 40.20456 degrees N, 105.84074 degrees W
