The employees were helpful and friendly during the process to get into the event center and to find my seats. Share the Arrows was a beautiful, uplifting and inspriring experience. The praise and worship by Francesca Battistelli was beautiful. I am so grateful I was able to attend and my friend had a wonderful time as well. The attendees were some of the kindest people I have met. We enjoyed getting to meet women from all over America. I love that this event had numerous panels ranging from apologetics to motherhood. There were plenty of vendors throughout the venue. We enjoyed getting to talk to the various business owners and purchased a couple of items. I look forward to attending Share the Arrows next year.

They're also employees directing traffic, although they weren't the best, it was nice to have someone there help out with all the pedestrians crossing. We got to park pretty easily in about 5 to 10 minutes so it wasn't too much of a weight. The venue itself is pretty small usually just like 100 sections and then the floor as well as a few box suites right above the 100 sections. So it felt like a pretty intimate venue. We have floor tickets so it was pretty crowded, but also people were pretty respectful. We kind of stood towards the back. The audio was pretty good overall and I really like how they had to really large video screens on the left and right side above the stage. The employees were pretty efficient and nice overall too. Didn't end up buying any drinks or food since it was a pretty late concert and the prices were kind of pricey We left pretty early so that we wouldn't have to fight the parking garage traffic, anyway we left in the middle of the second to last song. Definitely would recommend this as we were out of the garage in less than two minutes.

We had an amazing time at the Oktoberfest celebrations 2025 today…read more We Uber'ed our short trip from home to Downtown and saved ourselves the hassle of parking. At the fest, the air was electric and filled with excitement - both young ones and from their seniors! There was loud music being played live at different stages strewn across the entire downtown , people were swaying to it and really enjoying themselves between loud shouts of PROST !l before taking their next gulp of beer from their ginormous glasses! The food too being served at every corner - we're all the faire associated with Oktoberfest - bratwurst, Latkas, dogs, both corn and beef, and the bird - a solid leg of turkey along with 7 different types of beers! We immersed ourselves into the experience and came back home very happy and full. The best part was we felt right at home and plan to make attending this an annual tradition! Well done , McKinney !

I think they have that game too! Really great vibe; not overly chaotic, just people of all ages genuinely having a good time.

Also, shoutout to the girl at the front w the Star Wars sweatshirt. She complimented my Wu Tang shirt before I could compliment her fabulous sweatshirt and from that point I knew a RAD time, was about to be had ;). I hate that I forgot her name, but she was awesome and instantly made the place feel even cooler. The Force was no doubt with her! Had a genuinely great time and will definitely be back a 3rd time!!

The place is very colorful and cheerful in spirit. The employees check in with you to guide you through everything, give you pointers, and check in if you need anything at all. I had a blast creating this painting of my precious cat, Cai! (Before and after pictured below.) I appreciate the transparent pricing structure and the ability to come back and finish your piece. It was much easier for a walk in visit than Color Me Mine in Plano, (which last I visited there you absolutely needed a reservation and they will (very kindly) push you out the door once your reserved time runs out). Getting a reservation here would still be needed with a bigger party or at more crowded times. The vibe here is very welcoming for creative spirits. Highly recommend! Five stars all around.

All the pizzas we saw coming out of the kitchen looked delicious. Four Miller Lites and a pizza - $41.00.
