Fans of Danny Trejo Excited for Rare Greeley Appearances

It's not very often that a popular Hollywood actor comes to Northern Colorado for an actual appearance, let alone to Greeley. How cool is it that Danny Trejo is coming to UNC in the summer of 2026?

Where Will Danny Trejo Be Appearing in Greeley, Colorado in 2026?

This is going to be a fun afternoon on August 15 and August 16, 2026, at University of Northern Colorado's University Ballroom, when Danny Trejo comes to town. He's played so many great roles; I remember taking my nephew to see "Spy Kids" in 2001 when he was young, where Trejo played "Uncle Machete." He was great in "Heat," and, of course, the "Machete" movies.

The August 15 event is SOLD OUT but you can sign up to get free tickets to the 10:00 a.m. August 16  event. There won't be a "Meet & Greet" for the August 16 appearance, just the hour-long Q&A portion, with questions submitted in advance, according to the Greeley Tribune. I'm guessing that if you do get tickets (limited,) they'll send you a form to fill out with your question.

Why is Danny Trejo Coming to Greeley in 2026?

Sponsored by the High Plains Library District, the event will be a 'conversation with the actor/author for about an hour. I'm sure he'll not only be talking about his movie roles but his books, including his memoir: 'Trejo: My Life of Crime, Redemption and Hollywood.'

From Amazon's "About the Author:"

From years of imprisonment to helping troubled youth battle drug addictions, from acting to producing, and now on to restaurant ventures, Trejo’s name, face, and achievements are well recognized in Hollywood and beyond.
