    Only 3 stars due to the ac not working. It was very hot! I bought a VIP ticket for the unlimited food. I was given 6 poker chips to get samples of food. The problem was I did not have a pocket and had to carry the chips in my hand. All VIP were allowed to get more poker chips if they used the original 6. This is the first time I've been to an event that did not allow the VIP guest in earlier than the general ticket holders The food was average and very small portions were served. The Blue Chair rum was my favorite. Lots of good rum cocktails and giveaways.

    I attended with friends who all got free tickets. The hot, muggy room had vendors setup without an easy way to navigate without walking up to every one to read the food or drink description. We got to try a lot of drinks but the lack of seats or activities was disappointing. We would've been very upset if we actually paid for the event. We stayed for a 1 1/2 hours and had circled multiple times at that point and were just bored.

    Lots of rum options, a dance floor and food samples. I especially enjoyed the spice rum cake and banana bread soaked in Rum. So many choices! You could choose frozen, shots, fruity, straight up, mojitos, iced tea, rum and coke, chocolate, and more! They even fill up your entire glass each time you go for a new sample. The vendors are organized well so you can walk pretty easily between people. I enjoyed the shipwreck theme and the pirates lurking around. The only real downside was how hot the facility was with all the warm bodies inside. Perhaps they were trying to go for the real feel of the islands!

    Loved this event! Great charity and lots of fun. A little hot with no AC but a few samples of amazing rum drinks did the trick

    Lots of rum, lots of fun, and really good food. A good crowd of rum drinkers and a few pirates. Looking forward to next year.

    I really enjoyed all the concoctions of punches, the dance floor and dj's decking out in glittery mermaid scales...

    Went back again for Jailbreak Winter edition! What I love most about Jail Break is the support for…read morelocal artists. I always love seeing the new artisans, artists, and performers come together and do what they love! The music was great as usual. Garage Cuban Band added a wonderful Cuban flare to the event! They were so good! It made me wish I was eating Cuban food while listening to their mellow vibe. The comedy line ups might have been the most popular event of the night. Before every set there was a line outside the door! Maybe it was because it was freezing outside and people needed warmth, or maybe it was because of hilarious comedians like Jeremy McLellan and Dusty Slay who filled the room with constant laughter. I really enjoyed the self-portrait exhibit. Where anyone could come in, look into a mirror and draw themselves. Although I didn't draw myself, It was really interesting to see how others perceived themselves. Simply becoming designs had some amazing original vintage inspired jewelry! My brother in law was able to buy a unique one of a kind necklace for his girlfriend. The fire pits were such a great idea for such a cold night. Everyone was able to enjoy all of the performances outside while still keeping warm. I always appreciate the Yelp Booth with their fun photo booth and check in swag. One thing I really wish is that they had more food venue options rather than the same ones every time. I know it's a small lot and you can't fit many trucks but it would be cool to have a more options. I also would like to see more places to sit outside. I still really enjoyed this event and will probably be back again!

    It's not called Jail Break any more officially, but so many of us still refer to it as that! It's…read morethe Charleston Arts Festival finale now. Anyway, it's still more of the same great event in an equally awesome location. What a back drop for various forms of art. There are live performances that include dance, music, and comedians throughout the night. They are also occurring in different locations throughout the property. Stages are set-up outside, as well as in some of the private rooms in the jail itself. Live demonstrations take place and you can even join in on some of them. Bring an open mind and heart and you will be surprised at how you are moved by watch you hear and see. The creativity is astounding. This should be on the "don't miss" list!
