This festival was pretty sad. You'd think by all the advertising and a few years of experience, it would be a huge success, but no... so much potential but it totally missed the mark.
Organization: Terrible. The booths were not well-spaced so people were basically everywhere. It was very difficult to read menus and see what each stall had to offer.
Selection: Reasonable. There was a variety of mac and cheese, several beer vendors, some free sampling, etc.
Prices: I'm still baffled... 15 tickets cost $10 and additional tickets were 10 for $10. Can someone explain how that makes any sense? Did I read the sign wrong? Anyways, some places charged very little for their menu items, while others were charging way too much.
Lines: Horrendous. People were in lines that snaked around all over the place. I'd say the average wait time would be at least 30 minutes if not more.
I would neither recommend this festival nor go back. This festival could be way better if the logistics were improved. It just seemed so poorly thought out.
(The only reason I didn't give it one star was because I tried some free samples and I liked the music at the main stage area.)
Attendees beware!!!
