It's amazing how they can train the horses to do things and sometimes some of the horses don't want to corroborate but they help the horse to stay focus. They must train really hard for the performances and etc. it's amazing what they can do! There's aerobics, lovely music, horses & beautiful performances. Also the music is played live with the guitar, violin & the singing(I believe). The seats were really good better then concert seating with much more room. Any where you sit you have a great view. If you do sit all the way in the front you might get wet. Also they had bathrooms outside. They did have some portable bathrooms but they also had a trailer which was really nice bathrooms, with a sink inside. Bought tickets on Groupon. Saved a few bucks. Also you do have to pay for parking, it's $15. Definitely worth coming to see this show!

Total promoter/management fail.. we try to get the VIP tickets every time Cavalia is in town. Every…read moreyear it seems the VIP experience is watered down. This year was a total disappointment. We ended up waiting outside in cold, rainy weather because the powers that be decided to add 200 VIP seats but didn't plan for it! Due to scheduling conflicts we could not return another night, so we were stuck waiting in line as we watched the General Admission folks walk right in. Once inside the VIP tent, and finally receiving your VIP lanyard, there were more lines for the bars and buffet. So why the 5 star rating? Because the show is spectacular!! To witness these beautiful animals and so talented individuals perform is like slowly watching a memorable dream unfold... I have to agree with past reviews, and can't really add to the awe you will experience during the performance.. As if the performance is not enough, there is live music all around. Phenomenal voices, gifted musicians, matching mood lighting.. truly a wonderful evening.. So , In closing, someone at Cavalia needs to review the VIP experience. Don't let a black eye slowly be the one thing that attendees share with everyone else. If I was one of the 200 people who ended up paying VIP prices for seats that were GA before only to wait in the cold rain, I'd be really upset.. unfortunately, I was one of the poor saps that purchased 4 prime seats months ago. Only to wait on the cold rain..

While you could pay for parking at the venue, I'm not about that life, so I found parking in the residential neighborhood that's close to the Park. It took me about 10-15 minutes to walk over. First off, let's talk about the main purpose of Sloan Park: spring training for the Chicago Cubs. I know spring training is a big deal in Phoenix, but I was impressed with how nice this stadium is. It may not have the history of Wrigley Field but it's a super nice venue. As far as the festival experience, everything was smooth. The grounds were well maintained, getting in and out was relatively easy, and I didn't run into any issues. Exactly what you're looking for when you attend a music festival. I'll have to stop by for a spring training game next time around!

First time seeing a movie in a theater, in such a long time…read more We had purchased our tickets online we were able to validate them with no issues. We went to the snack bar and got her popcorn and drinks prior to the movie starting. The snack bar cashier was very nice. I think there was a disconnect as far as having butter on the popcorn. We checked in at the podium to verify our tickets and which theater we would be sitting in. Our seats were great. They were in the back of the theater with easy access to the stairs. I love the reclining chairs with the swivel lap tables... Makes a big difference when trying to juggle snacks. The theater was clean. I would definitely go back to this location in the future.

Popcorn and refreshments available, no alcohol that I saw, popcorn was great tho, I saw some other comments about the popcorn not being so great, so I was worried because we love our theater popcorn lol, and it was great no issues what so ever! One thing I'd say is maybe wipe down ur theater seats my man had some grease from the last person. Also I did see reviews about the temp, and I def noticed that, the AC wasn't as cool as we had hoped I mean we don't want to be freezng but we were sweating to our seats a lil..and like I said I'm not a big person so I'm not one to usually be sweating..

There are two green rooms we use - both have the space to accommodate approximately 40 faculty members who make up the stage party. I sing the national anthem for the graduation ceremony and let me simply say how amazing their sound system is. There used to be no sound delay. The sound is crisp. And I think the sound system makes me sound even better than I really am!! lol The lobby area is spacious and great for after-ceremony gatherings. It truly is a great place! I also have contemplated taking some of the arts classes they offer. I haven't found time in my busy schedule but I do know they offer a variety if classes. I look forward to when I can take a class!!

We chose the sitting on the higher levels which we liked but don't chose the edge of the row cause then you can't see the side of the stage. Choose more in the middle. I was not happy with the bathroom stall I used. It seems when so many other people slam their doors my door became unlocked and opened on me while using the restroom. The bathroom was very clean!! The other annoying part was there was only one person working the concession stand. So we couldn't get anything. Cause our intermission ended by the time we got to the front of the line.

When the Chiefs are playing, the energy is loud, proud, and unapologetic -- jerseys everywhere, chants ringing out, and zero doubt about who this bar belongs to. It's a must-visit for any baby Chiefs fan or longtime member of the Kingdom looking for their people in South Scottsdale. Cold drinks, a packed house on game days, and an electric vibe make every Chiefs game feel like an event.

The crowd was way bigger than I expected for a Tuesday, super kind, fun, and totally down to keep the jams rolling. I didn't know a soul (except my mom!), but everyone felt like a friend by the end of the night. It's the kind of place you don't really talk about because you want to keep it just the way it is... a hidden gem. They're known for live shows and football nights, but Tuesday? That's magic.

I have attended the event 3 times, each at a different locations in the valley. The first time at Tempe Beach Park, then in Phoenix at Steele Indian School Park and now at Sloan Park in Mesa. This year was great because of the location. Sloan Park is the perfect venue for the festival. There is plenty of space, places to sit down, shade if you want it, and tons upon tons of salsa vendors with room to grow! Tickets are $15 dollars the the gate on the day of the event. I got tickets for just under $10 - thanks to Groupon. Salsa contestants can enter in three different categories - mild, hot, and "anything goes". So as an attendee you can expect to sample salsas ranging the spectrum: smoky chipotles, fruity ones featuring mango, pineapple, and even cranberry salsa, too. As well as, salsas that are so hot you'll swear your face could melt off - save those few for the bravest among your group. To enjoy all the salsa samplings, you get access to an unlimited supply for chips brought to you by friendly volunteers at the chip stations located throughout the event. I'd recommend bringing an extra $1 to purchase a tray for your chips and salsa. It'll be one of the best investments you'll make all day. I was too busy trying over 40 salsa vendors, but the event also offers a morning 5k Run, Margarita Mix-Off, Music Stage, and Kids Zone if you need even more activities to enjoy.
