Last night was one of the most disappointing live music experiences I can remember paying for…read more I came to Revel in Frisco specifically to see Emerald City--a band that has been known in Dallas for years for excellence: strong vocals, tight musicianship, and some of the best horn players around. That reputation is the only reason my group drove from Dallas to Frisco and paid $50 per person for a VIP table of seven ($350 total). Unfortunately, what we experienced was embarrassing--both for the venue and for a band that once set a very high standard. To start, the venue experience itself was misleading. I had never been to Revel before and wrongly assumed that a $350 VIP table meant an upscale music venue. It is not. Revel is essentially a large, crowded bar with TVs everywhere, wooden floors and tables, and a packed layout that made it difficult to even move once seated. Think Road House--minus the cage. Despite calling ahead and explaining that we had dinner reservations and were coming only for Emerald City (not the dueling pianos that started at 5:30), we were met with confusion about start times and warnings that our table might not be held. To their credit, the staff did hold the table until 8:30 as promised, but we arrived to a tightly packed VIP section with little room and no clear service. The dueling pianos played until around 8:45 and were, frankly, unimpressive. My guests were already questioning why we had driven all this way--but I reassured them that Emerald City would make it worth it. They did not. Emerald City didn't begin playing until after 9:30, and from the very first song it was clear something was seriously wrong. The sound mix was atrocious. The bass and drums were so loud they drowned out everything else. The horn section--arguably one of Emerald City's strongest calling cards--was almost completely inaudible. The singers were forced to scream just to be heard, and even then the vocals were strained, off, and painful to listen to. This wasn't a "bad night" or a minor technical issue. This was a full set that never recovered. I kept expecting them to adjust, recalibrate, or find their footing--but it never happened. Service only added to the frustration. We could not find our server most of the night and had to track down another staff member just to order and eventually close out our tab. Ultimately, we left during Emerald City's set because we simply couldn't justify staying any longer. As we stood outside regrouping and laughing in disbelief at how bad the experience was, a large number of people poured out of the venue--shaking their heads, visibly frustrated, clearly leaving early as well. We weren't alone. I haven't seen Emerald City perform in a few years, but based on last night, I would not intentionally go see them again. Whatever made them great in the past was not present here--whether due to sound management, venue limitations, or the performance itself. This was a complete waste of time, money, and expectations--for me and my guests. I truly hope both the venue and the band take this feedback seriously, because what happened last night should never happen at this level of pricing or reputation.

The AT&T stadium staff, security, and Dallas Cowboy employees refused thousands of ticket holders…read moreentry into the stadium. Instead of safety for its fans they chose to save themselves. On Sunday September 20th, 2026 during the Dallas Cowboys football game staff stopped allowing fans in through security checkpoints. Security closed the gates stating we are going inside because of approaching bad weather and lightning strikes nearby. I stated to security "so you're going inside and leaving us out here in the open"? A Dallas Cowboy employee directed paying ticket customers to stand under trees by the entrance? Complete stupidity, we all learned you don't stand under trees in electrical storms when we were in kindergarten. The Dallas Cowboys should be ashamed of themselves leaving fans outside as heavy rain approached and dangerous lightning strikes fell upon the area. They admitted the danger by pulling security and closing checkpoints and leaving paying customers stranded at the entry gates under trees. My wife and I said screw this as the line grew for entry and we decided to leave before it started to rain. Keep in mind most people park a mile or two from the stadium and walk. After about 20 minutes of walking towards our car it started to rain and lightning became more intense. Thankfully security at the "National Medal of Honor Museum" gave us shelter out of the weather. We didn't even have to buy a ticket. Imagine that the "Medal of Honor Museum"providing a safe place for someone needing shelter with a fast approaching storm and charges nothing. We waited out the storm for about 45 minutes here. On the other hand America's so called team "The Dallas Cowboys" sells you a ticket, leaves you stranded outside with approaching bad weather to save themselves, leaving paying ticketed fans stranded and in harms way. What I learned yesterday is the AT&T Stadium and the Dallas Cowboys staff from top to bottom believes in every man, woman, and child for themselves. If the ships going down they will not put you in a life raft, drowning in a pool they will not throw you a life ring. Imagine a tornado approaching AT&T Stadium and security closes the gates and runs inside locking the doors to save themselves. That is what they will do because I've seen how they react with approaching bad weather first hand. This is what happened September 20th, 2026 to every Dallas Cowboy Fan trying to get to the game and seek shelter before the storm arrived. "America's Team"? I think not!

The newly married couple arrived from the UK a few days in advance of the party, but both of them came down with Covid. Needless to say, we had to cancel the party, and all of us were devastated! But Vaibhav from the Glitz was great and gave us a credit for the full amount that could be used if we rebooked the party within a year. Nearly a year later, we finally pulled off the event. The venue was excellent, and everything went smoothly thanks to the help from The Glitz and Vaibhav! I would definitely book another event at the Glitz.

I think it's fair to assume When you rent a venue, you expect to show up with it being clean and ready to use. There was stuff all of the floors. The kitchen was a mess. The bathrooms were dirty. Decorations and balloons still up from night before. No paper towels in kitchen or bathrooms, no trash bags in bathroom. Our tables were not set up and table cloths not out or chairs out. We had to wait for him to set up tables so we could start decorating. Some of the tablecloths had stains on them, probably from night before. The chargers they used were dirty, we had to wash food off several of them. To top it off, he was rude. Not apologizing or trying to make things right. He was supposed to come back and mop before guests showed up cause the floors were disgusting and decided to show up Late when our guests were there and tried to mop....we told him to forget it... He isn't moping around guest. Not one time Did he apologize or make things right. He would be mad or fling his hands. He even showed the venue to 2 or 3 People while we were trying to decorate. Making them promises of stuff he would do, that he did not do for us. When you rent a venue, you expect to walk in and it be clean and ready for you to use. That was definitely not the case!

Lockers if you want to lock things up or cubbies for shoes and a little cafe with quite a few options. There's also a pretty diverse arcade, so lots to keep your attention. It is VERY loud. Between the constant blowers, kids screaming, and loud music, it's hard to hear announcements. Not great for kids with sensory struggles unless you plan accordingly with ear protection. Otherwise, very fun place. We'll definitely be back, and I'll definitely bring ear plugs next time.

This place had a lot going on!…read more Ages: crawlers (1+) can use the toddler area, but the rest of the park is perfect for ages up to the teens. They have sports areas like soccer and basketball, large slides, and a jousting type area that had tons of teenagers having a good time. The arcade and claw machines are a good spot for a break/change of scenery. Staff: staff did a good job of monitoring kids and kindly correcting improper use of equipment to keep everyone safe. They were super courteous and kept areas clean. I appreciate staff that can interact well with the kiddos. Price: I love that they have much lower prices for parents. Adults are $7 and kids are $19.95, ages 3 and under $15.95. There is a 2 hour time limit but you can add on time for a lower cost as well. We spent about $50 at the food court for a family of 4, including treats like slushies! We were all full. I reccomended getting food after jump time has run out. It's nice to have a one stop shop. Pizza and wings were good! Love that it's indoors and well air conditioned as the summer approaches. Excited to be back!

We attended an event called "Bingo Loco" at Frisco Hall Event Center and it was one of the most fun…read morenights I've had in a long time! Yes, a bingo event, lol. If you think its a traditional bingo night, think again. Bingo Loco is wild!!! High-energy from beginning to end. Imagine bingo, a dance party, a game show, all rolled into one. You'll have to do a quick search to learn more about Bingo Loco. Its held in various locations all over the country. Tickets range from per person to a reserved VIP table. If you go solo or with a small group, its open seats. This location was long tables and seating was euro style. We enjoyed everyone around us. This specific event offered food (nachos, popcorn, pizza slices, etc), drinks (water, soda, fruity alcohol in a wine crafe & jello shots) and swag. The doors closed 7pm sharp, lights dimmed down and the neon lights turned the room into a party house. Our host and Dj were AMAZING: funny, sexy, and really kept the crowd completely engaged the entire time. Impressive! The way it works is simple: you get one bingo card, a highlight pen, and the Dj plays several rounds of music through out the evening. But instead of typical letters and numbers called out.. the Dj plays music that matches songs on your bingo card. Bingo was one row (5 boxes) in a horizontal direction. It was easy to follow. Don't feel intimidated if you don't know the music, it's all part of the fun. Most people used apps lol. There were some pretty cool prizes. I'm sure it's different at each event. We had the chance to win everything from an air fryer, jumbo sized pink sloth, karaoke machine, disco ball football helmet, a giant dildo penis mounted to a bucket, and a trip for 2 to Las Vegas (to name a few). Between rounds, there were sing-alongs, confetti blasts, a chance to stand up and dance to the music, and random moments of pure chaos that kept the energy level through the roof!!! I LOVED that this was a 21+ event. The mature audience made it feel more like a fun night out with friends than a family entertainment event. Everyone was there to let loose, laugh, dance, and have a good time. Maybe too much fun lol. The hype surrounding Bingo Loco is absolutely justified. I've seen videos online and wondered if it could really be that fun in person. The answer is yes. The crowd was enthusiastic, and fully committed to the experience. Looked like some groups were birthday celebrations, batchelorette parties, GNO, and definitely groups of friends of all ages and genders. Frisco Hall Event Center was a great venue for it as well. The space allowed everyone to be part of the action. If you're looking for a unique night out, be prepared .. once you've experienced bingo this way, regular bingo will never be exciting again! We are already looking for where the next one is located. We would definitely return to this venue if it was hosted here again.
