First time attending and decent event. Things that were good:
-Even amount of marketing to food ratio
-Easily near parking
-Good places present
-Nice freebies
-Nice time frame
-Great use of the community doing performances
Coming from chicago I have some recommendations below:
-Get cooling stations so people don't over heat.
-Use the side walk area for booths and the full street area is used for patrons. It was so tight walking down the street in the heat with food.
-Get the best of charlotte out there. I mean there are some great places here but they weren't represented.
-Use food trucks too.
-Block off the area and have police do bag checks to ensure security and safety. In this time and age it's important to be proactive not reactive. You only have one life and not everyone values others.
-Fireworks?!
-Can you make it more than 3 days?
-Can one of these sponsors sale pre-sale discounted coins?
