It is believed the woman was sitting on an escalator railing at the stadium when she fell to the concourse below.

The woman later died as a result of her injuries.

Denver Police Department said the call came at 10.52pm and the woman was a guest at the stadium. 

A Kenny Chesney concert was going on at Empower Field at Mile High on the same day as the accident.

Stadium officials released a statement following the tragedy.

“We extend our deepest sympathies to the loved ones of the woman involved in the tragic incident that occurred at the end of Saturday’s concert at Empower Field at Mile High.

“There is nothing more important than the safety of our guests, and Stadium Management Company is in communication with the Denver Police Department as it investigates this unfortunate situation.”

The woman’s identity hasn’t been revealed to the public as of yet and an investigation is still continuing. 

“To my understanding, there was none of that, it was just an accidental fall, I don’t think anyone pushed her or anything like that,” said police spokesman Nate Magee.

Doors opened for the Kenny Chesney concert at 4pm on Saturday and the event was scheduled to start an hour later at 5pm.

It is believed the woman fell after the concert was over.

Chesney released a statement on Sunday: “I was devastated to learn of the loss of someone after our show. There had been so much joy, so much heart coming from the people of Denver last night — and to hear this is heartbreaking.

“Life is precious. Sharing music brings us together and that love we share makes us so much more. For the lady who came to share that love, there are no words. For her friends and family’s loss, I grieve with them and for them.”
