I’ve been to many iterations, this may have been the best. I always love seeing the kids play in the sand and I danced like a fool to that band.
To paraphrase W. B. Yeats, Folks danced like a wave of the sea.

I liked the change of having the kid’s admission include include use of the bouncy houses, skeeball, etc., rather than having to screw around with tickets. Thumbs up to the climbing wall.

Figured I’d be home before the big music starts. This is Granny’s first adventure taking both grandsons (cousins 10 months apart), and we are gonna play in the dirt (sand)!

Thank you.

Best place to park when coming from Oakhurst (too far to walk)? – how about the free county garage? right at Trinity and Commerce (I think that is Trinity at least)
Entry gate locations? – there should be one near the Iberian Pig/Square Pub area. We enter on the other side of the Square by the Starbuck’s. The sand is right there on Ponce.
Food and drink for sale? yes. We plan on smuggling in some snacks for the kiddo.
When does concert begin? way after bedtime for the baby, so no clue…last time we saw the concert, I think it was dark…so maybe 8:00?
