Went for the first time, it was ok, I have been to better, but the tickets were free, and I still blew close to $100.00 On, food and beer (great selection), but lines were ridiculous!!! Same for medicore food. The BBQ was supposed to be world class and award winning. As a chef who traveled all over the world, it was ok. I am not trying to be a Debbie Downer, but from all the hype I have heard over the years, it is just O.K.
Admission was quite high. Once you got in, everything was an additional cost. The lines were so long I stood in line for almost 2 hours just for some cold water on a very hot day. Maybe a lot more areas for water on hot days would be an improvement. The shows were ok, and the people and vendors were helpful and friendly.
Already posted by 3 stars. Basically, not a kid friendly (toddlers in diapers) place and lines were not organized and took way too long.
Not good at all. Most of the entertainment is not appropriate for children and virtually not educational value at all
Expect to spend a lot of money.
To be honest I love the buy one get one free adult. And the free kids but if they didn't have the buy one get one free adult and kids free I probably would not have went. It's a lot of money. We had an okay time until the end when a younger girl had swords and shields out and she played with my girls and let them kill her. I think at everything we did that day that was by far the best. So kudos to that young lady!!!
I love going but not every year. The shows are often the same so I go every other or ever few years just because I love the costumes, turkey legs and apple dumplings. This year we went on opening weekend and I was disappointed from other visits. It was way too crowded, the shops are small so hard to get into however the ones we did see had very little stuff out. There are usually traveling shows walking around greeting people however I didn't see one, not even the Queen. The turkey legs are usually amazing but this year, nop... read more
Not even in the gate yet this year and already disappointed. The staff handling parking have no clue what they're doing and are beyond rude. When I get here almost half an hour early I shouldn't be forced to park farther away from the gate than people arriving after me and when I stated I wanted to back my car in I was treated like crap. This will likely be my last year attending.
Day started with the boneheads charging my card $200 instead of $20, then getting pissed at ME for being upset. You can void the transaction or refund the money, but that isn't an immediate remedy. That's $200 tied up in a "hold" or "reserve" or whatever until it drops off. %diety% knows how long that will take. Never attending again. Bet their vendors would love to know there was $200 taken out of their pockets because I wasn't able to spend it today.
