Area Code 720 History:

06/01/1998
Area code 720 was officially put into service. Area code 720 is an overlay of area code 303.

06/17/2022
Area code 983 was put into service as an all services overlay of area codes 303 and 720. Ten digit dialing (area code + seven digit number) is necessary in the 303/720/983 overlay because different homes in the same geographic area can have the same seven digit phone number but each would have a different area code.
