Rated out of 5
Nice facility I went here for electrify expo 2025. The event was a little lackluster for me, but was fun a lot of activities for the kids to do that. We’re free a lot of demos for riding PEV‘s and electric vehicles overall take prices were on the cheap side decent selection of food trucks.

Beautiful Stadium with lots of seating arrangement. I loved it.
They had mini fast food too, so you can order food fresh made food.

Massive event with seating capacity of 14000. Parking and traffic well directed, with back stage VIP access, 15mins drive from Brooklyn, about 25-35mins drive from JFK. Uber/Lyft prices start climbing high immediately following the event. Pedestrian access is a well lighted open space and secured.

We came to the Dino Experience with our son. We had a good time. One star off for overpriced parking $27 if you pay with the card. For a family event it's very expensive on top of the tickets. NYC is Def pushing families out with pricey events and costly parking. When it comes to the dinossour experience we loved it. Raptor show was pretty cool.
