It was beautiful to hear some conversations of the CWS attendees making comments about how nice the GLM is and talking about the two other parks, which are about to open.iamjacobm wrote: ↑Sat Jun 17, 2023 3:34 pm Went to The Flaming Lips last night and just echoing the praise. Impressive venue that had a lot of thoughtful design choices. My only minor complaint was the entry line was a bit awkward, but I am sure that the kinks will get worked out.
As an aside, sure it's not the Swim Trials at the same time as the CWS, but DTO can really handle events. That is another few thousand people thrown into the mix of the CWS opening day and it was no problem at all. Downtown was buzzing last night from the Old Market to GLM to Steelhouse to the stadium. Really awesome what is going on in the city.
There was also a Christian concert on GLM on Saturday night, it was packed with people too, with popup stands selling all sorts of flashy lighted items.
