Came here for the Bruno Mars Concert. That was one of the best concerts I've ever been to, but this…read morereview will be for the venue itself. I randomly got lucky and when I was coming into park I got put very far from the stadium in overflow parking. I was bummed at first but looks like it was a blessing in disguise. I did like how the seats were all numbered and spaced for actual human sizes! It did not feel too crowded in out seats. Downside, no service anywhere in the venue, restrooms were mainly porta-pottys with no attendant insight. Same goes for the real restrooms, after the starting act we were to the restroom and there was basically no toilet paper. Also the website gave incorrect information on what you were allowed to bring in. The lines for the merch and the food was very unorganized. The venue clearly did not anticipate so many people because the lines were so long they started blocking the flow of normal walking paths. My group and I did get a bit nervous since there were over 30k people in attendance and we did come up with an emergency plan incase things went awry. Lastly the parking. I was so glad that I parked all the way at the back of the lot, meaning I would be one of the first people out. Unfortunately they just hired contractors to direct traffic and they did a poor job. Probably because they were given no direction. I was lucky that my wait was only 30 minutes, and that's because I was at the front of the exit and pushed my way through. I hear horror stories of it taking people 45 minutes to almost 3 hours just to get to the main road. Also since we didn't have any service, so many people had to walk out to call an uber. Very scary that they didn't have any other options. Overall 2/5 stars for the venue.

Legendary USAFA... I…read morespent 22 years in the AF and never got a chance to visit USAFA... Finally got the opportunity as part of a corporate conference tour and that place was simply stunning. I thought MacDill, Travis, Hickman, and Ramstein were the gold standard AFBs, but USAFA is simply on another level. To start, it's massive... The base literally stretches the entire width of Colorado Springs and sits up on the front range, so you can see it from town. It's covered in all dense pine and has the most picturesque mountain backdrop I have ever seen. Add in the out-of-this world facilities and it's hard to think any of the other military academies even come close to what USAFA has to offer. Fall football games have to be epic. If you're in the military or retired military, making a stop at USAFA is an absolute must...

Absolutely loved this Planetarium located on the campus of the United States Air Force Academy…read more Best of all...it's FREE to the public! It's a terrific way to escape reality for a few hours, especially with there being so many outdoor activities around the Colorado Springs area. I'm still amazed that shows were FREE to everyone. You'd think the Planetarium would be a perk only associated with being a prestigious cadet here within the heart of the Air Force Academy, yet it's like...they encourage outside visitors to explore the grounds of the Air Force, which is also an active military base. So cool and generous of them! Thank you :) The Planetarium is located right near the famous Cadet Chapel. Parking is free and there's plenty of it. For me visiting at the end of June, it was quiet on campus and for the presentations I came to see on a Saturday, the Planetarium was half empty. All shows run 45 - 50 minutes each, and start on the hour consecutively. So...it gives folks about 10 minutes to exit the theater and decide if they'd like to reenter to watch another show or go about their day, or maybe just use the restrooms. Plus, if it's busy, it gives an opportunity for other theater goers to get a chance at a seat to enjoy the Planetarium as well. Seating is first come, first served. I took a spot in the last row as I thought it'd assist in looking up at the sky surroundings. Chairs recline pretty well and were comfortable. Unfortunately they don't have a concessionaire stand. That's the one thing missing about this place. I'm a huge popcorn fanatic and it would have paired perfectly, like being at the actual movies. They don't allow food or drinks either as I guess they don't want to be cleaning people's messes up afterwards and I respect that. Shows last just under 1 hour long so you can survive without eating, lol. Details about the Planetarium and all scheduled showings can be found online at usafa.edu. That's the Air Force Academy's website. Shows are not presented every day. I noticed viewings were offered almost every other day, or every 2 - 3 days. So, I'd suggest checking usafa.edu ahead of time before showing up on campus. Here's an example of the Planetarium's schedule when I visited... Saturday June 22, 2024... - 11am - Dream Big - 12pm - From Earth to the Universe & Live Night Sky Tour - 1pm - D-Day: Normandy 1944 - 2pm - Fighter Pilot This is a typical schedule. Showings begin around 11am or 12pm and they offer 4 - 5 films per day, ending between 3pm and 4pm. But after Saturday June 22, the next set of presentations weren't until Tuesday, June 25. So, there were two days off inbetween playings. Btw, when entering on the grounds of USAFA, you must display a valid ID at a security checkpoint. They may ask where you are headed on campus and if you are carrying weapons or drugs which is just procedural, but it can be intimidating, lol. Lastly, the visual effects were futuristic. I had so much fun enjoying all 4 presentations I stuck around for. Not only did I learn about engineering marvels and solar systems, but I got a chance to hear stories about unheralded heros trying to make a positive impact on the world. It was all inspiring, informative, entertaining and a truly rewarding experience. Finally, if you are visiting Colorado Springs, not only should you explore the grounds of the Air Force Academy, but also make time to check out this Planetarium. It's the perfect way to briefly pause from outdoor activities and relax in a reclining chair while feeling transported away to alternative universes. Thank you for having me USAFA!

Fall Mountain Farm is the perfect autumn activity spot for the whole family…read more I went with my wife and my family, and everyone had a blast. The farm is beautiful, and magically decorated. The staff was wonderful and kind. And there were many attractions to enjoy. My wife especially liked the 'Bunny Bungalow' building in the animal village :) My favorite parts were the hay maze and the pumpkins, which they grow themselves in patches you can see on the hay ride. I recommend going earlier in the morning to avoid long lines and to get your choice of pumpkins; the best ones are gone by the end of the day, although they're all impressive. Overall, I would absolutely recommend going. Take your spouse, take your family, go with friends. There's stuff to enjoy for everyone.

For a supposed upscale area, the lobby was cheesy and cheap looking. A large soda for $8.25. No thank you. Popcorn all over the floor.

Park out front because the garage is behind the theater and is a trek to get there. The parking garage and elevator looks trashed. Honestly, go to another theater chain. The theater commercials are absolutely out dated and rude. Have you changed your mind yet? Go to another theater chain. They didn't get 1 star only because I liked the movie I watched (Project Hail Mary).
