Halloween Happening Fundraising Event…read more Definitely for those under the age of 8 or so 10 if you restrict TV/movies etc from your kids and they haven't been predisposed to certain things. Not bad for $15 per person They don't offer any discounts not even military.. You walk up the paved walkway purchase your ticket ($15pp), I think under 6 is free but don't quote me on that. And you wait in line. We waited about 45mins before our group of roughly 20 went into the Haunted Barn walked down a lil hill to the mini maze, and we all loaded up in the trailer for the hayride. Please dress for the occasion, it was 43 degrees out and they don't have space heaters outdoors or fire pits etc to keep you toasty wok you wait. Although a fire pit and selling s'mores kit would've been another selling point. They did have apple cider, canned sodas chips candy and popcorn for sale. I'd suggest pack your own snacks and drinks. Oh and they had glow sticks for the kids. Organization could've been a bit better, lighting to the restroom would've been nice and more scary props. And that god awful smoky smell from the fog machine or whatever was horrendous like old fireworks just bad.

I didn't get any of that here. Checking in was a breeze, and it's kind of cool that you get to sit wherever you want. I was a little hungry and it was crazy that they were literally no lines... At least not every time that I looked. Now, Chick Fil A had items that were $20+, but outside of that... I couldn't be mad at $5 tacos. And let me tell you how delicious those were, WHEW! I'm not really a beer drinker, but they did have Mango Cart and wine... Though it was only sweet wine. Why were the bathrooms cleaner than a lot of standard restaurants?! I was quite surprised. And the icing on the cake was the fireworks at the end. I can't imagine inhaling all that smoke is safe to do regularly, but it was quite the spectacle. I would definitely return to this stadium for a game!

The lines for food never seemed to be too long and appeared to be moving quickly. Evan was a great MC and kept the crowd engaged.

Dont DO IT!! These people are so unprofessional. This was my daughters dream venue and despite the…read moreearly warning signs we kept the wedding at this place. When my children 1st booked, after taking the money their representative Iris called and asked could we cancel or change our date because she realized she double booked for our wedding date. Who knew that would be the beginning of the venue being the biggest stress factor in planning the wedding. My kids dealt with 1 person (Iris the entire time) , they made all of the payments, paid for additional time to have the venue all day for decor and everything. All along the way they nickled and dimed them so bad but the week of the wedding "THEY SHOWED OUT." Iris was out sick and Bessa came on the scene, she was unfamiliar with many of the promises made by Iris, she was cold, nasty and was happily unwilling to accommodate us. During the week of the wedding Bessa, gave our planner the run around, wanted to provide linens of their choice vs what was agreed upon, demanded a $1500 security deposit that Iris never mentioned, and demanded that it be paid in person instead of over the phone considering that they inconvenienced us so much already. Many of the demands being made also came threats to cancel the event THE WEEK OF THE WEDDING. I was so hurt to hear that they were giving my kids such a hard time after they paid so much money to have the wedding there so I joined the last minute call they scheduled and it was evident that the money being paid was welcome but we weren't. On the wedding day, they stated everything in the full kitchen was plugged in. It indeed was not a full kitchen, they have a warmer not an oven and it wasnt plugged in which caused all of the guests to be served late 9 pm to be exact because they had a hard time heating the food. They promised a bathroom attendant, there was no bathroom attendant present, the bathroom was smelly and the only paper towels they had was a giant toilet paper roll tossed on the counter. There was a miscellaneous woman present just walking around looking at people, sitting behind the DJ booth and everything. We could feel that we weren't welcome. When my daughter who i 5ft threw the bouquet it got caught in tapped the chandelier before falling behind her for her friends to catch...well the next day they called and said they would not return the security deposit because of the chandelier. I cant imagine how many people they rip off by stealing security deposits from the bride tossing the bouquets and tapping that low hanging chandelier. My kids told them they were near by and wanted to see the damages they were claiming, they said they could come but when they got there they refused to let them in the gate, told them through the microphone outside that they would send photos of the damage and that they had to make an appointment. Zooming in on photos from the rest of the night that chandelier is in tact and they definitely stole the security deposit. My kids went on their honeymoon and they still haven't sent images of the so called damages and never did return the security deposit. I really do not believe that they treat all of their customers this way it genuinely feels like they just treat their black customers any kind of way. If i could give them zero stars I would. Dont get drawn into it being pretty, its beautiful but spend your money where you will be treated with care and respect.

The space is beautiful but a little outdated in some areas. The best thing about this space is that all necessary components are on site: ceremony space, full industrial catering/kitchen space, bridal and groom space, reception area, and main rental elements (tables + chairs). The staff are extremely friendly and helpful, but the space manager is a bit strict. The venue also has interesting rules about who can do what in the space, and well as strike down policies. Planner tip - if you bride can afford it, hire a cleaning service to support with breakdown.

I finally got to come to this fair, and I couldn't help but compare it to the MoCo Fair, which I've…read morebeen to twice. Immediate comparisons... it's sooooo much smaller! They had more rides than meets the eye, but the space and food options were noticeably far less. But unlike MoCo's $20, parking is free. And they kept it PG and had a live go-go band... gotta love that! They are next to an equestrian center, so sometimes you can smell manure, but that's just nature haha. It was like $7 to get in as an adult, and the unlimited ride wristbands are better for individuals than tickets (if you like rides). It was only around for a weekend, so for anyone seeing this... well, you'll have to wait until next year haha. If you're around, definitely go. The free parking is a huge perk!

However, the line to get in was wayyy too long and moved wayyy too slow. All that police presence and metal detectors did not yield enough speed nor efficiency. Too many misguided youth repeatedly tried to punk us with the line hopping butttt, they met the right Auntie today. One "bruh" had the audacity to TRY to scream on us, "What are you mad for, we're all gonna get in." I said, "Yeah, but we've been waiting for over an hour and how dare you think you're gonna get in BEFORE us. You better go to the back of the line and wait, like we did." VERY LITTLE to brag about once we finally got in. Inflation has taken the fun outta everything. $5-$7 entrance fee, $10 for 3 darts, $10 per ride ... utterly ridiculous. The Sankofa Mobile Museum was amazing ... guaranteed not enough people experienced it. The live band was AMAZING (the singing not so much) but most def two thumbs up for the band. I only saw 2-3 vendors that were NOT peddling home repairs, gutters, windows, roofs. *Sigh* The wine and beer bar was a welcome addition (although the $9 kiddie cup of Sauvignon Blanc I had was disgusting.) The petting zoo was a joke. Besides the 2 ginormous rabbits and the adorable baby goats, there was only one baby camel, one baby kangaroo, and one pig. Besides the prices, I have no other complaints about the food. It was typical carnival food and we appreciated that. Not sure why they would have food trucks there ... funnel cakes, corn dogs, turkey legs, hot dogs, cotton candy, ice cream, fries, fries and more fries and HUGE lemonades are the BEST! Woke up to a flood of posts and reels about the chaos that ensued after we left. Not surprised. I knew we left at the right time. We came, we saw, we conquered and we declare, PGC Fair ain't gotta worry about us ever again.

Gala presenting a fanfare to the African culture with the backdrop of the building's ecofriendly & urban architectural design. In both areas I crossed paths with some of the Hospitality, A/V & Catering teams who were interactively busy & pleasant. GapBuster is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit & minority-founded educational organization dedicated to empowering the community through education benefiting their students/mentees in aiming to close the educational performance gap. The gala featured Keynote Speaker Kojo Yankah, former Member of the Ghana Parliament & founder of the African University College of Communications. Other special guets included Pat Lawson-Muse of NBC News 4, Congressman Jamie Raskin & Montgomery County Council At-Large Candidate Hoan Dang. The notable guest of the evening in which I had the esteemed honor in meeting, was King Peggy (Nana Amuah-Afenyi VI - born Peggielene Bartels), the first woman King & Reigning Chief of Tantum in Ghana. I didn't venture around the entire space, however on my way out I quickly spanned the Betty Mae Kramer Gallery (former First Lady of MoCo) that supports the arts & humanities. The portico to the plaza is a popular space for concerts, famer's market, festivals, live entertainment...I saw light advertisement for the upcoming seasonal ice skating rink & annual Silver Spring Jazz Festival which is held in front of the building. There's a parking garage across the street on Ellsworth Drive if you can't find street parking. I saw many people parking in the Whole Foods parking lot...not suggesting, just to note. From the Silver Spring Metro Rail Station - Red Line, it's a very casual 15 minute walk.
