How did you like the event?

     The service was good with our server. The buffet was mediocre and consistency was off such as the cold food temperatures. When I did have good hot food it was good. The desert bar was a disappointment and it ran out early.

How did you like the event?

    We loved the view and ease of food/drinks and restroom facilities. However,  the experience would have been a 5 if Upland had been broadcasting the corresponding radio show. As it is, we felt only half involved in the even due to lack of broadcasted show. That aspect was were very disappointing so we will likely go somewhere who provided the entire show experience next year. Would also dim lights prior to fireworks as they were too bright and detracted from the show.

How did you like the event?

   This was a 5 star experience except for one large detail. Having the background music is an essential part of the fireworks show. The choreographed music was broadcast on 106.9 fm for this purpose. Highly recommend the addition of a sound system that could play fm radio broadcast next year.

   Thought is was way overpriced for what we got. Plenty of food but had to pay for drinks. Would’ve been nice to at least have 2 drinks included

   Great area to watch the air show and fireworks. There was a nice crowd but it never felt crowded. Some noise but not too noisy—-easy for friends and family to talk. And chat a bit with new folks.

How did you like the event?

   The Beer Garden Viewing area at the Uplands is probably the BEST in all of Thunder and well worth the price of admission. The Event itself was nothing short of Spectacular. I particularly love watching the "Rookies" begin to pack up their belongings during the pause in fireworks towards the end, only to have the Grand Finale begin and blow everyone away. We will no doubt return again.

     Love the spot, but very disappointed in in sound to hear the air show details and the music for thunder. It took away from the thunder experience. The food was good, but kinda high, which I get. We have been coming to that space for 10-12 years and we love it. Any chance of raising the price and including food? We will definitely check you out again next year. Thanks so much!

 Everything was great with the exception of someone taking your purchased bar seat when you have walked outside to observe a different view or meet another attendee. This year the weather was a little cool.

   We came last year and there was a Dj and food this year we walked in 10 minutes later walked out. I could have paid $20 a person and had a band next door
