More seating, more vendors, bigger sound just an amazing stadium! There are at least three student sections and about three levels of viewing pleasure. My only unsatisfactory concern about the stadium, while the viewing board is beautiful and the picture is great, there's seating behind the viewing board and those sitting there cannot see the picture. They're only able to see the back of the board. Throughout the game, the announcer directed everyone's attention to the board, I'm sure this was disappointing to fans because they cannot see it at all if they're sitting in sections such as N123. Hopefully, the school or those powers that be will fix this very soon. Parking... Tailgating... no issues at all. Entry into the stadium was smooth. We arrived about 40 minutes before kickoff and our experience was stellar! Super happy for my alma mater... go big Blue!!

We've been coming here for years and it always feels like a win, whether the Tides do or not! Tickets are super reasonably priced, which makes it easy to say yes. It's a wholesome, easy night out for the whole family cheering on our home team with the Elizabeth River glimmering in the background. The mascots can usually be spotted hanging out near 3rd base in the concourse for a photo op. Lots of tasty options when it comes to food, and I appreciate that there's usually something for everyone. We'll keep coming back, season after season, cheering loud for our Tides and soaking up that community spirit. If you're looking for a fun, budget-friendly, and family-focused night out in Norfolk, Harbour Park is the place. Bring your reusable water bottle, your glove (just in case!), and your love for local baseball. Go Tides!

It was our first time attending and we were impressed with the various US military groups and from other countries like Canada, France, South Korean Army (Hoshi! ), to name a few.

We Ubered to the place so we really don't know about the parking situation.

Let me say we are BIG concert goers and visit many venues in Northern Virginia, Richmond Area and…read morethe Tidewater Area. With that said - this is a really decent venue. First the venue itself. After attending several events here in the past couple years, we have never seen an issue before. Staff and security have always been pleasant and helpful. The cleanliness of the grounds, facility and even the restrooms have always been kept well. Food & beverage prices are not the worst for a venue. Now as for my rating. I will easily give this location a 5 star rating. But I would be wrong if I didn't mention a real issue that occurred on May 3, 2024 - General Parking. Was just awful. As you can see from the picture you can see the entrance to the area my small Hyundai had to jump over. Someone put a tiny board to I guess "help" cars get up over the curb. Needless to say it was worthless. Now there is construction all over the area and I'm guess this is why they are making this area General Parking. Since I don't recall ever having an issue until now. So I didn't ding the facility on this, but my guess is the city of Portsmouth is mostly responsible for this issue. But it is a real problem. Also recommend that if you're going to a show during this early 2024 season that you see if parking is going to be a problem. I don't know how long this is going to last. Parking in this area quickly filled up - causing folks to double and triple park. So go early to get a spot and be prepared to tailgate for a little bit at the end of the night so you can move your vehicle out.

I attended a Fantastic Planet event at Old Dominion University which seemed to center around Barry…read moreArt Museum. Admission was $15, free for students. There is a check-in of your information for their statistics. The museum is two floors. The bottom is mainly compromised of glass with some items from Chihuly. Everything in the entire museum is behind plastic. A bit disappointing. Restrooms, water fountain and elevator are in the rear. The second floor has a hands on video game display and dolls. Surprisingly I found the dolls to be the most fascinating aspect of the museum. The Madame Alexander Dolls were impressive. My wife is a collector of the brand. They have a small display of Barbies. However the most intriguing display was a three story wood doll house the Barry Family commissioned. It reflects their Suffolk, Va home they lived and raised their family for decades. The different rooms represent with extreme details their home. The doll house could easily be insured over a million as the tiny bulbs in one chandelier alone cost $3,000 each I was told. Although I recommend the Barry Art Museum it's small. However, it's worth a visit and support. You have an option for membership when providing your information. 4.5 is a great fit.

It's FREE YES you heard me correctly. They also offer a free parking garage right around the corner. The gallery has four sections with the lower level and the upper level. Everything was truly amazing!! You can take the stairs or the elevator. They have a restroom on both levels. Expect to see amazing sculptures also some very fine art. There was never a dull moment. So expect to stay at least an hour or longer to enjoy it all. They have the staff around to explain any questions you might have. I am so glad I found this place and would highly recommend. This was perfect for my rainy day and not overly crowded. So if you're in the area. Come check them out.

For as long as I can remember, the city of Portsmouth (Old Towne area) hosts 'Sunset Thursdays' starting in June or July. Every Thursday a different band, usually local is featured and starts entertaining the crowd at 6pm. It is free to sit and listen. But bring some cash, vendors are on site. And if none of the vendors interest you, the site this year is walking distance to downtown, the High Street area. This street offers plenty to eat - sit down and take out options. Or if you are feeling the need, pack a bag and bring your own food and drink. I have been out on Thursdays to several events and each time is a treat! Bands of all genres are featured. See the list for this year - https://portsvaevents.com/event/sunset-thursdays-2022/2022-07-07/ In case link does not work - this is line up for 2022: June 16th RaJazz (R&B, Jazz) June 23rd Island Boy (Hard Rock, Country, Funk) June 30th Slapnation (Rock, Jazz, Reggae) July 7th The Original Rhondels (Beach, 70's, 80's) July 14th Michael Clark Band (Rock, R&B, Disco) July 21st BrassWind (Beach, Pop, Motown, R&B, Rock, Funk, Soul) July 28th TFC Band (Motown, Soul, R&B, Funk, Oldies, Beach) August 4th Soul Intent (Beach, 70s, 80s & Rock) August 11th Better By Tuesday (R&B, Jazz, Funk) August 18th 2nd Wynd (R&B, Reggae, Jazz, Rock) August 25th J & The Band (Top 40, Classic Rock, Beach, Funk, Oldies) September 1st Revelation (R&B, Rock, Funk, Reggae) September 8th Hot Cakes (Country, Rock, 70's, 80's, 90's) If you love live music, you should definitely come out and enjoy.
