We've hosted three brand activations now, and each one has filled slow weeknight hours with families looking for something fun to do. The sampling events created a buzz on social media, our staff got tips from the extra activity, and the brands loved the casual, relaxed vibe our venue provides.

Venue Partner

The product sampling activation we hosted brought in families we'd never seen before, and many ended up staying for our other events that weekend. It was a win-win—the brand got real customer feedback in a natural setting, and we generated additional concession revenue we hadn't anticipated.
