Big disappointment
by kaiser905 on 9/19/14Molson Canadian Amphitheatre - TorontoRating: 1 out of 5The concert and performers (Splash n Boots, Max & Ruby, Wiggles) were great, but the rest of the event was a big disappointment. If this is the format of future events and you are not getting heavily discounted ticket prices, I would recommend to all parents to skip it. It was not worth the effort of getting a toddler downtown and paying almost $200 for a family of 3.
It's misleading calling it a a Big "Day" Out when you have to choose between watching the concert and doing anything else (meet characters, go to booths): Doors opened at 9am, concert 9:30am-Noon and everything was closed when you got out.
- We tried to line up to meet Dora & Diego at 9:10am and were turned away as they have supposedly been out too long
- The activities outside of the concert were only open *during* the concert, and closed by the time we got out - the guest services person said they should have been open till 12:30pm and offered no apologies that everything was already closed up by 12:15. They needed everyone out of there for a special VIP session in between the 9:30 and 2:30 showtimes.
- sure there are 15 min breaks in between the acts, but as any parent knows, that's barely enough time to get your kids out of the seat/stadium for a bathroom break.
