Reviews of Belknap Park
"What to the breakaway festival at this venue. This venue had a beautiful view of the sunset. I had an amazing grassy Hill to sit on. You could overlook the entire festival it was beautiful. There's also a big area down below where you can dance, dance, dance the night away. The drinks were extremely pricey. They could have had some more food vendors it was very packed I don't feel that there was enough food for the people the lines were extremely long. The sound quality was pretty dang good. There was a silent disco up above the hill in the main stage below the hill. Security was doing their job but they were also not too harsh. The bathroom facilities were not horrible but they could have had a few more but I've definitely seen worse I'd have to give them a six out of ten for the bathroom. I felt like the venue was well-lit with also the appropriate amount of darkness depending on the atmosphere you wanted to relax in. I will definitely be back to this venue to see a concert. I would also say it is kid friendly. You have to find parking outside of the venue on the so you may have to go for a little walk to get into the venue be aware."
"We visited for the Upheaval Festival and were not at all disappointed! The event staff did an amazing job maintaining the park, were friendly and the festival itself seemed very well put together! Would highly recommend events here."
"Over all a nice park. Didn't seem like there was much there other than some tennis courts and a baseball diamond. I was there for a concert so I didn't really look around at the park facilities much though so I could be wrong."
"Had a great time at the upheaval festival at Belknap Park. The only thing I would suggest is moving the food to several different locations around the festival. The way they had the porta potties right next to the food area was not very appetizing and it caused huge traffic jams of people trying to get through the lines of food. People ended up cutting lines that were already an hour long for some foods (burgers, pizza). All around beautiful space tho!"
"I rode a bicycle there for Upheaval festival. I go to that festival often. And getting the Island Noodles is a must every year. They are the best!"
