This event was really worth it! You can park directly across the street in the lot for $22. We also went next door to Carmine's for family style dinner which was out of this world. I would recommend making a reservation so you do not have to wait for a table. A great evening.

This event was amazing! It was a beautiful well put together exhibit. It wasn't too long and boring. I thought this was so worth it at the Goldstar price.
