DENVER, CO, UNITED STATES, December 10, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- United Nations Young Leader and artist AY Young will bring one of Denver’s first fully clean-energy-powered concerts to Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom, teaming up with AEG
Presents to advance his global Road to 1000 mission. The performance marks Show #963, following Young’s clean-energy-powered appearance at Bellwether in Los Angeles on December 13 (Show #962).Cervantes’ is one of Denver’s most storied music venues, known for hosting legendary performers including Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Billie Holiday and Ray Charles. AY Young’s renewable-powered concert adds a new chapter to that legacy, demonstrating how historic stages can model the future of sustainable touring.
The Denver stop is part of a clean-energy touring pilot within “How the Grouch Stole Christmas 2025.” In Los Angeles, Young appeared alongside Living Legends, Souls of Mischief and CunninLynguists, delivering a fully clean-energy show using mobile battery and solar systems supported by New Use Energy (NUE) and Overdrive Energy Solutions. The Denver performance uses the same renewable-energy technology, replacing generators and reducing grid dependence.
Earlier in the day, Young will co-host a summarized edition of the RECHARGE Collective, an impact-focused experience created with Freshwater Project International and New Use Energy. The Collective features clean-energy demonstrations, youth engagement and water-access storytelling that highlights how music, technology and community leadership can accelerate real-world solutions.
“As an artist, I always wanted to make a difference,” says AY Young. “Now we’re out here proving that music can literally power the planet. I’m trying to turn this tour into a blueprint for the future.”
Through The Battery Tour, Young has produced more than 960 renewable-powered concerts across 17 countries, mobilizing young people, communities and partners around the UN Sustainable Development Goals. His work with AEG in Los Angeles and Denver is part of a broader effort to establish a scalable, renewable-powered model for future tours and festivals.
