They usually have deals around the holidays. $20-$30 off so that's what we usually do for memberships. Parking is pretty simple here, I like that they have a ramp, it does cost a few dollars and you have to get it validated but it beats having to find street parking. It's usually not too crowded when we go so finding parking is not bad. The ramp goes right to the elevator. We like how they have multiple levels of fun. They switch it up enough that the kids like exploring the new exhibit. They like their familiar exhibits too. We usually spend 2-3 hours here and it tires the kids out. If it's your first time there you may want to bring extra clothes and shoes in case the kids get wet. They have a few areas where kids can play with water and depending on how messy the kid is you might need spare clothes. My kids love the art exhibit and always spend a lot of time creating masterpieces there. They also have a baby area so if you have little ones feel free to bring them! They do have a small cafe with snacks and drinks so if you do get hungry you can buy food. There is also a subway right outside the museum. A lot of people will pack lunches and snacks and you are free to eat in the museum. It's a nice location by lots of restaurants so if you want to go out after it's a good option too.

TLDR: Great for families with younger kids, lots of things for them to look at, run around and do;…read moreparking is limited and expensive. I had no idea this holiday festival was a thing! I wasn't sure what to expect and brought my adult daughter with me to see what it was all about. If you have young children or a person who loves looking at holiday lights, this is the place to stop by. Luckily, the night we went, it wasn't too cold, but there really wasn't much for us to do other than walk around and look at the light displays. Neither of us was drinking cocktails that night, so we didn't take advantage of the cocktail lounge, but did get our picture with Santa Claus. The little houses all around the field are super cute. They had great music playing and a "fireplace" image displayed on the Jumbotron. In the same area as the cocktail lounge, there was a makers market. I saw people who purchased concessions from the normal concession stand areas, but we didn't get anything from there either. We parked on the street using the app, and it was ridiculously expensive for being a Friday night and I booked a few hours, not knowing how long we would be in the festival. Turns out it only took us about 45 minutes to walk around. Not sure if I would pay to go back. I think it's a kind of thing that I'm not sure the experience changes much year to year.

I guess in my case last night it was ok because we were there with a group of about 21 people including children after 6:30 p.m. Our waiting staff were patient and amazingly friendly! The downside ,The food took too long to come. I ordered the Juicy Lucy ,Walleye fingers , Reuben Rolls and Fries to share. Our table also shared an assortment of their wings which are very tasty! The black dry rub in the picture I believe is called the Wild Wings. My son ordered the habanero wings and he was the only one who could handle the heat on these and I LOVE heat and spice ! Order with a glass of milk! The fries are good! I ordered with their blue cheese dipping sauce! Delicious. I Wasn't super excited about the Reuben rolls. My juicy Lucy was A smaller burger. It was way overcooked. I would not order it again here. Drinks are very good! My Bloody Mary was perfect. They have a very nice children's menu! My grandchildren enjoyed Mini pizza and Mac and cheese! They got Sundays and ice cream cones after their dinner! There is a small game room for the children to be entertained in while waiting for the food to come. There is a mini parking lot in south side of the building you can park in which is very uncommon in this area of St. PAUL! The menu looks Amazing. I'd like to come back and give them another try during a less busy time.
