I've passed the stadium many times as it's located just off Interstate 95 in northern Maryland and can be seen from the highway. It's one of the few minor league ballparks I've visited with free parking. Tickets are a bit more expensive than other minor league games I've been to, but still substantially cheaper than attending a MLB game, and you're much closer to the action on the field. There doesn't seem to be a bad seat in the ballpark, and the sightlines are great regardless of where you're sitting. There are picnic tables and a kids play area set up in left field. As is typical of sporting venues, concessions are overpriced and the hot dogs, nachos, ice cream, and other food items our group tried were pretty underwhelming in terms of quality. The team store had a decent variety of merchandise, but was similarly overpriced. Many of the concession stands were closed with low attendance for an April game against the Brooklyn Cyclones, but I'm sure they open up when the summer season ramps up and attendance rises. Overall, it was a fun and low maintenance day at the ballpark, but I'd rank the overall experience a 3.5/5 at best compared to other minor league ballparks I've been to.

This annual event provides plenty of food and free parking with a live band ! The Oracle Band performed from 4pm to 9pm singing some old and new school lyrics ! The fireworks started at 915pm and lasted until 10pm. The choreographed firework show was amazing with the lights reflecting off of Laurel Lake. The community in Laurel truly appreciates this family event as the entire firework show was funded by donors. 1. Arrive two hours early to stake your seating 2. Park half at least half a mile away if you plan to stay for the entire fireworks show otherwise you'll be stuck in traffic inside a parking lot for 1 to 2 hours 3. Bring plenty of food and snacks but no alcohol 4. Last but not least, have a Happy 5th of July in Laurel !

They have fun rides for the kids and some more exciting rides for adults. Mind you it's not Hersheypark or what Walt Disney World, the rides are small and a bit rickety, but it is a fun time for a small-town. The zipper, roundabout, swings, etc. The fair usually starts midweek and runs through Saturday night. On Friday each year they have a good fireworks display at about 9 PM. Like most small fairs, you can buy single tickets, books of tickets or a wristband that's good for the night. Although it's quite expensive to buy the wristband, you'll go broke trying to ride rides with tickets so just pony up for the wristband and have a good time. Plenty of food, but rides on an antique firetruck, and more. Note that this is really a kid centric event. Of course as an adult you could go and do the bigger rides, but there's no alcohol served and you will be surrounded by mobs of teenagers.
