‘A common interest amongst everybody’: Yampa Valley Entertainment brings performances, community together across Northwest Colorado

From local festivals to major entertainment venues, Craig’s Nick LaGorga is helping communities connect through live music while envisioning a growing role for entertainment in Moffat County’s future. For LaGorga, the magic of live entertainment is not necessarily found beneath the stage lights or in the reception of a performance. It is found behind a soundboard and in the satisfaction of helping musicians deliver a memorable performance. It is also rooted in watching a community gather around something it loves. As owner of Yampa Valley Entertainment, LaGorga has built a business around making those moments possible, providing professional sound, lighting and production services for events throughout Northwest Colorado. But for the Craig resident, the work also represents an opportunity to strengthen the communities that have become his home. “Entertainment really does bring all of those connected pieces together because it’s a common interest amongst everybody,” LaGorga said.
