We walked up to the place. And the "School of Rock", was singing and playing music. We walked further up, then we passed by all the food trucks. They had all types of food from coffee, breakfast food, they had snacks like empanadas truck, barbecue, Italian, asian, Japanese, and so much more. As we walked up to the event, since we bought our tickets online you just go through the will call and they look for your name and you get a bracelet you walk in. But you also can buy tickets at the door. You save $10 a ticket if you buy it online. We walked in there was lots of vendors with awesome different Collectables like Star Wars, sci-fi, action figures, all types of anime , K-pop, comic stuff, and apparel, jewelry, rocks, crystals, toys, games, cards, like Pokémon. There is another room full of vendors artist with all types of paintings and comic books stuff. Pokémon. Also people selling desserts and different types of cakes and drinks, Boba tea. There's another room they have actors signing autographs. They have different groups, clubs like the Ghostbusters club. They had the 501 Legion Star Wars club there. With lots of photo ops areas, I'll types of characters walking around taking pictures with people. Lots of cosplayers. Also there's an upstair area with different events going on. You walk outside there's a courtyard full of vendors selling all kinds of collectibles from toys to anime stuff comic book stuff too. Go inside they have an art museum. It's amazing.

Its such a great time definitely fun for the whole family and as we left, we heard the school rock outside jamming again outstanding skills on there part! Definitely will be back.

What a beautiful facility nestled inside the City of Sunrise Municipal Center right on Oakland Park…read moreBoulevard. Our event, a Gala, was very well-attended and held inside the Sunrise CIVIC CENTER & MUSEUM complex. I was not inside a recognizable Museum of any sort so I venture to guess our fancy banquet room was in the Sunrise Civic Center proper. Arriving on time it was a pleasure to attend a VIP Reception in the Foyer Area and hallway. I was issued a wrist band to enter. A bar setup was at the end of each Hallway and in between a Silent Auction had been set up. It was other worldly in that I mingled with a candidate to be the next Governor of Florida and other like-minded people. I did "bid" in the Silent Auction on a very special clutch. A clutch is a small ladies' purse for use as an evening bag. The next hour and another wrist band later we entered the banquet room. It was fancy in that it was very well-appointed and lovely if not a tad bit small. The back of my chair rubbed up against the back of the woman's chair behind me a few times and I did not like that. The tablescape and table setting- all place settings- were on point and absolutely gorgeous. In the foyer wine was not being served. But inside a bartender approached our table with an ordering iPad and started taking orders, including wine. We paid him (bartender) then our Wine appeared at the table. On bar tab receipt and as told to me by 'tender the bar was provided by a vendor called "bar2hire" or similar name with the Numeral 2in it. So easy, so sophisticated. Decent food was served. Had a very nice, upscale time. All staff was extremely gracious at this particular event.

You know you're walking into a real theater when the building itself makes you slow down for a…read moresecond and say, "Alright... this is going to be a night." Not a strip mall stage wedged between a nail salon and a frozen yogurt shop. A real theater. The kind that feels like it was built for big voices, bright lights, and the occasional crowd singing along a little too loudly after a couple of pre-show drinks. That's the first thing you notice about the Broward Center for the Performing Arts. Sitting right along the river in downtown Fort Lauderdale, the place just looks like it belongs there. Modern lines, big glass, clean design. But at the same time it still carries the charm and warmth you expect from a classic theater. It feels like a venue that was designed for nights out. Once inside, the layout works well. Sightlines are excellent. Whether you're down low or up in the higher seats, the stage is easy to see and you never feel like you're watching from a bad angle. But here's the one thing that caught us by surprise. The sound system struggles a bit when you get up into the higher seats. The speakers just don't quite reach that far with the same clarity, so the sound can come across a little muffled. Here's the pro tip. If you're sitting high, save the money and go cheaper on the ticket because the sound quality up there probably won't match what you'd expect from a premium seat anyway. The parking situation has actually improved. Getting in is easier now that they switched to the pay by plate app system. You drive in, park, handle the payment on your phone and head to the show. Simple. Leaving, however, is another story. Getting out of the parking lot after a show can feel like a bit of an adventure. This is where patience becomes part of the evening's entertainment. Give yourself time and don't expect a quick exit. We saw Darius Rucker last night, and even with the sound challenges in the higher seats, it was still a really fun night. Good music, a great crowd, and the kind of energy that makes live shows worth it every time. Here's the move if you're coming here. Go early. Grab dinner or drinks somewhere nearby. Walk over without rushing and enjoy the atmosphere around the theater. And when the show ends, don't fight the traffic. Take your time and let the crowd thin out. Do it that way and the Broward Center becomes exactly what it should be. An outstanding way to spend a Saturday night.

Mariachi is a type of traditional Mexican folk music believed to have originated in Western Mexico…read more From different regions of Mexico emerged a multicultural sound. During colonial times from the early 16th century through the mid-19th century, the music of Mexico's indigenous nations were influenced by the musical styles of Spanish colonists and the African slave population to form the music now called Mariachi. After the end of the Mexican revolution in the 1920's, the government began promoting Mexican folk music as a source of national pride. It is around this time that the Mariachi costumes became elaborate taking inspiration from Jalisco charros, Mexican ranchers and cowboys. By the middle of the 20th century, mariachi music had made its way into US culture, first in California, then throughout the southwest, and eventually throughout the nation. Mariachi has now become one of the most recognizable Latin music types. Carrying the Mariachi torch in South Florida is the Mariachi Show Mexicanisimo. This musical group can be hired to perform at your private events including birthdays, weddings, and other celebrations. I was able to watch them perform at a friends milestone birthday celebration. The singers had great harmony and they can sing in both Spanish and English. They offer 30 and 50 minute performances. This group was very professional and their music and vocals was enjoyed by everyone at the party. Mariachi Show Mexicanisimo is a beautiful representation of Mexican culture.

You can buy your tickets online and that was a very easy and straightforward process, and prices were very reasonable. Overall, we truly enjoyed our visit.

The Foundry is a small neighborhood theater in Wilton Manors, just across the street from Union…read morerestaurant and next door to Island City Stage on Dixie Highway. Plays of Wilton makes its home at The Foundry, a 54 seat black box theater that is wheelchair accessible. Since there are only 4 rows of seats and the theater is small and intimate, almost any seat in the main section is a good seat. The seats are next to each other, so people sit tightly in this small venue. There are some side seats sometimes, but I do not recommend, since the angle of vision to the stage is not the best. Out of all the seats in the main area, I find seat B7 to be the best. There's a pole next to it and an aisle on the other side, so this is the one seat that is almost "private". The plays are mostly LGBTQ+ themed and based. The one I went to see called 10 Naked Men was not all nude. Actors stayed clothed most of the time, but the title sure got people excited about the show....LOL.... Hunter's the nightclub was kind enough to donate red and white wine as well as water for the show, so these beverages were complementary throughout the play. There is limited parking in front and behind theater with some handicapped parking spaces. The theater opens one half hour prior to performance times. Performances are usually Wednesday through Sunday. Evening performances at 8 PM and matinees at 2 or 3 PM. As of 2024, the performances are usually : $35 General Reserved Seating $50 Premium 1st Row Seating $25 Side seating, when available
