    The Breakaway Tour San Francisco Thank you, Bank of America and FIFA and Visa for such a fun watch party. Soccer Game - USA vs BIH The Midway All the severs were amazing. In helping with getting drinks and fast with all the foods. See drink and food list. Yummy! The deco was so well setup with games, photo opportunity and gifts. Great place to host your next event.

    Okay Bay Area! We bringing the heat for concerts and edm music! I live in Socal right now but would happily move back to the Bay Area knowing there is a reliable music or festival scene. Socal definitely gets all the movement for these types of shows but I was so surprised coming here for the first time for John Summit for New Years Day. It was easy to navigate around the venue. Theres street parking and parking where i'm not sure you could park but parked there anyway and nothing happened. Getting inside was bottlenecked at the front and went fast, there are a bunch of smaller venue rooms with smaller artists that I wish I checked out more. It was refreshing walking around before the concert outside to the main hangar/main stage. They had food and porta potties right outside near the hangar which was convenient. Inside the main stage, its covered with a lot of drink tents. Very cool inside and not stuffy becauze it has an open concept. Music quality was okay, some of the artists before were way to quiet in my opinion. John Summit was amazing and the vibes were great. Excited to come back to this venue for more amazing artists.

    Decent spacious venue that host all kinds of different events. There are street parking but it's definitely recommended to use Rideshare type of transportation. I really enjoyed the all girls rave! During the summertime there are plenty of daytime dance parties ana other events. Latest event I attended was the Bingo Loco!

    I'm updating my review because shortly after my review and contacting midway, they added ADA. It's been my favorite place to attend block parties in SF since. We love midway. Thank you Midway.

    Came here to see knock2 at his blockparty and it was just pretty unorganized. First of all, they didn't even check our bags when we went through security. That gave me an unsettling feeling walking in, because anyone could sneak anything. Also felt like there were no set lines to get in, we just barged in through the gates when they checked our ID's. Only then after, there were gates to form proper lines. At least the porta potties didn't stink, surprisingly. They probably had strong lemon air fresheners to keep the stench masked. I still tried enjoyed my time here, even with the overcrowding and the crowd not being very plur. I just felt a bit scared because our bags weren't checked, and we were a large group, and we all had that same experience.

    Been to several EDM events here, one at The Ride and another at 888 Garage. The production, sound quality, and lighting are great. I'm always amazed at the quality of artists performing and the tickets are very affordable. The whole place just has a positive vibe, staff are friendly and professional, and in general the people attending are positive. The bartenders are fun! Restroom situation is ok, but could be better, especially at 888 Garage. The parking situation could be challenging for some--street parking, and there's not a lot of it. My recommendation is to park elsewhere and take Muni (stop at Marin St. is across the street from the venue) or use a rideshare service or taxi. Easily one of my favorite EDM venues in the entire Bay Area!

    Cold, cold and freezing cold! It is Saturday May 9th. My first time to the Midway and it was the last. I was so much looking for an outdoor event space and was totally disappointed. It is simply freezing cold and extremely uncomfortable. I would not go there even if it is free.

    Where can you park for the block parties. It seems the normal "parking" they have is where the stages are set up?

    Hi Jaime, We highly recommend using rideshare apps to get to and from the venue at our Block Parties. Parking around the venue is extremely limited.

    It depends on what you're seeing. There is a large stage inside and at times they'll also have a large stage outside - in addition to smaller stages both in and outside.

    Solomun will be indoors and our coat check will be open.

    Do they scan proof of Vaccination?

    They don't check for vaccination cards altogether. Been at this place twice -- in November and NYE -- none checked. Absolutely horrendous behavior.

    Is the entire venue outside?

    No, two indoor stage areas, indoor restrooms, indoor bars, other indoor spaces all in addition to a lot of outdoor space

    Is there seating during the Bock party events?

    Limited

    What are the vaccine restrictions or are negative tests ok?

    Hi, there is no dress code!

    Hi Isabella, if you arrive early we have a limited number of parking spaces outside the venue. We recommend taking a car service, though.…

    Vapes are allowed, but they can only be used in designated smoking areas.

    Yes, both water bottles and hydration packs are allowed and can be refilled inside. They just need to be empty when you arrival, otherwise security will ask that you empty it before going inside.

    Can I bring in an empty reusable plastic water bottle for water? Thanks!

    Yes, both water bottles and hydration packs are allowed and can be refilled inside. They just need to be empty when you arrival, otherwise security will ask that you empty it before going inside.

    Are there in/out privileges during croptober fest?

    Hi Czarina - I'm sorry we missed this. There were no ins and outs at the event, and we don't usually allow it.

    Is the croptoberfest indoor or outdoor?

    There are two indoor stages and one outdoor stage. Have fun today!

What is even better is seeing creators from around the world come to San Francisco for the Game Developers Conference. I attended the "To the Supercell Game Changers Women Driving The Industry Forward" event at Chandran Gallery around the Union Square area of San Francisco . It's good to see the diversity of people from different countries like Finland and Germany developing games for the masses and growing their brand. I also enjoyed the space which had delicious food like sushi and an open bar with wine , curated alcoholic drinks and music to enhance the experience . A good art gallery space to see art and to attend events. The event was multidimensional and influential. The good vibes inside are contagious and the gallery space is very spacious A space for artists to display art which is courageous and audacious

I thought this was a wonderful idea because you will have a limited number of people during your selected time. I lucked out and was the only person in my time slot, so I had the whole exhibit to myself. I was able to take all the pictures I wanted and spend time in this beautiful, immersive piece. I've been here once before coincidentally for the same artist without the reservation times and we definitely had to wait for other people to be done so we could take our pics. It's hard to tell when you're at an exhibit and want to take pictures with out strangers in them.

Yes having Dolores Park as your school yard and the place to spend your lunch period and some after school activities was happening all four seasons of the year not just on April 15 or 4/15 now also known as 415 day. The corporations and other entities start capitalizing on some underground fun. Now it's celebrated throughout San Francisco with people wearing items and gear which has something San Francisco on it. How I still celebrate it is going to a park in San Francisco with a favorite adult beverage currently it's a bottle of Pinot Noir for Don Juan Pinot Noir. Whether Dolores Park or Golden Park you can represent all four seasons in San Francisco by visiting that Park Life. On an April stroll in San Francisco finding where to park on Clement street can sometimes be a challenge in San Francisco. You can see people camping out for parking spots on Clement street ( like at Costco in SF). Park Life is a store on Clement street between 3rd and 4th Avenue which has items with themes of San Francisco. You will find art and stationaries. You will also see bags ,clothing, and hats with San Francisco on it that don't look like you picked it up at a souvenir shop at the Tourist trap in SF. You will also find some interesting books inside. There is a small art gallery in the back of the store . This is a good place to get a treat for yourself or grab a gift for others and have fun at a local San Francisco park . Whether it's Golden Gate Park, Duboce Park, McLaren Park, Mount Davison Park, Sue Bierman Park, Lafayette Park, Precita Park, Bernal Heights Park, Alamo Square Park, Washington Square Park, Dolores Park, Franklin Square Park, Presidio Tunnel Tops Park or Glen Park , etc. This place in San Francisco is all about that Park Life. Born and raised in San Francisco I am straight out the"golden gates "to me it's always San Francisco and I only call it the other term which is SF I am not the one who "participates "calling San Francisco different nicknames on social media or in person"debates" I just know San Francisco is the best city in the "United States" Go take a stroll to San Francisco by the Pacific Ocean and not the" Hormuz Strait" to the day I like to "celebrate" in San Francisco on April 15 also known as 415 but there is also another" date " I partake which is on June 28th also known as the other San Francisco area code the "628"
