The venue itself is exactly that- a pavilion to enjoy music. I came for the Avril Lavigne/ Simple Plan show, and want to give some detailed feedback on main topics for those considering coming to this venue.

Staying/ Driving: It is cheaper and less of a hassle to stay outside of Camden (I stayed in Philadelphia) and Uber to the show. HEADS UP- Uber WILL NOT do pick up after a sold out / packed show. My uber was cancelled 4 times, but there were people essentially scalping Uber, so my group was able to get home effortlessly for the price of the Uber from someone sitting outside the show who knew Uber would not be picking anyone up (very smart city move).

PRE GAME PRE GAME PRE GAME!!! Tall Boys are $20. Absolutely INSANE price. I didn't even consider purchasing any food from here, I just went home and paid the doordash fees. Pretty sure to be the level of drunk I became (it was my birthday, hello) I had about 5 or 6, so they got well over $100 from me alone that night.

Bags: Small and clear bags are the best - I did not bring any bags, just my phone, ID and myself, and had an effortless time at entry all the way to leaving. The less you bring, the better.

Bathrooms: Lines for the bathrooms that are inside and are the stalls is RIDICULOUS. Save yourself the hassle by looking around and seeing that there are extra bathrooms available, they're just upgraded port-a-potties. While people were standing in 25+ minute lines for the regular bathrooms, I could easily just go stand in front of any taken port-a-potty and had to only wait for that person to come out. They didn't have any lines at the extra bathrooms! None! but the regular bathrooms had lines so long it reached the concession stand area.

ChargeFuze: Available ONLY at one side of the venue inside the building are rentable charging ports. They are a max of $40 for 10 hours. They have 3 charging adapters, Type-C, iPhone and the older android charger. Highly recommend this - all of my devices were at low battery before Avril came on, and the rentable charge port was a lifesaver.

Lawn Seats: I prepaid the amount for 3 lawn chairs. The show started at 7, we arrived at 5pm, doors to the lawn/seating areas opened around 5:30. Definitely well spent and well worth the reservation. I scanned my tickets with an employee at a chair booth and then waited in line to get into the lawn. I had front row barricade seating for the lawn, and absolutely loved it. The chairs added the reassurance that I didn't have to stand all night, I could leave them where I sat when I left, and they're good "territory" markers so that people know there are people sitting in that area. Blanket sitters looked a little uncomfortable at times, but I preferred the chair so no hate on what you prefer.

Staff Interaction: All of the staff members and bartenders that I had the pleasure of meeting were kind, respectful and informative. I had to ask alcohol coordinators for the location of the charge banks, and they aided with no hesitation. The people serving drinks were professional and even though I was more and more intoxicated as the night went on, their attitude never changed to an annoyed tone which is appreciated- even though I wasn't causing any trouble myself.

Overall, I enjoyed the venue for my birthday because I was able to see someone I really enjoy perform and was able to enjoy myself for a small vacation. I don't think I would return to this venue if given an option just due to lack of transportation from a show and the concession prices, but it was fun and had what I needed for this trip.
