I was her for Summer Skolstence on the first night. I was disappointed because it was advertised as there being music (there wasnand thisnwas rhe only good psrt) food truck(S)...trucks meaning plural. There was one singular ice cream trucknotobers therest I’d the food was food offered by th event organizers with the TCO Stadium. There was little to no variety and for s ticket that amounted to $45 PLUS parking the TCOstadium sndneven planners totally missed the mark on this one. It was also billed as having “art with a Nordic flair....”. There was not a singular artist on display unless you count a local radio station selling t-shirtsnor t-shirts for Rick Springfield for his hit 80’s song “Jesse’s Girl. This was a serious disappointment for someone who sent that much money to peruse the art and food offerings and there were NONE.
BUT, that was not even the WORST part. I drive a vehicle with s valid Handicap placard for my car and while there were spots available to park in (you could see them) I was told I could not park there and would have to park someplace else (this was in the ramp not in a spot that would have taken up business disability spot).... I calmly explained to the young man working it was illegal to not let me park in s handicap spot and I was told it was illegal to use someone else’s permit. I informed him it was MY permit....because he continued to ignore my request to enter the blocked off parking for the disabled I went to the next person who charged my card and found a non disabled spot to park in and went on my way.
Overall, I was HIGHLY disappointed with the service here, there food and art advertised was nonexaiarentnand for the amount paid for a night out ofn2 it was honestly a waste money. The adversisied event was not st all want it clsimnand it is unlikelynill be back to a place that does business like this. Not having what you say you are going to have is one thing but denying a disabled individual a place to park (which I paid for and have the receipt) is illegal. If TCO Would like her there discuss this, please leave an email address here, and I will reply to quit. Thank you...

Expanded Review: Great facility! We’ve been here on three different occasions — once for a high school football game, once for the Ultimate Frisbee National Tournament, and once for the Vikings preseason camp — and every experience has been outstanding. Each time we visit, I’m impressed all over again by how well this stadium is designed, organized, and maintained.
The layout makes it easy to find your way around, and the seating offers great views no matter where you sit. The fields are always in pristine condition, and the attention to detail in keeping everything clean and well cared for really stands out. The staff and event coordinators are professional and friendly, and they handle large crowds with ease and efficiency.
Parking has been well managed every time we’ve attended, and there are plenty of nearby spots and clear signage to help direct you where to go. Restrooms and concessions have consistently been clean and well stocked — not something you can say about every venue of this size!
Whether it’s a professional event, a local high school matchup, or a national tournament, this facility has a way of making each one feel special. It’s obvious that a lot of thought and care have gone into making this a place that can successfully host such a wide variety of sporting events.
Every time I’ve come here, I’ve left impressed and grateful that we have such a top-notch venue available for both community and professional use. Truly one of the best facilities of its kind...
Read moreWent to Viking's training camp today. What a nice facility. We didn't go inside any buildings so I'm strictly talking about the outside. There were many booths giving away things as well as booths where you could purchase items. It was very hot today and there is few places for shade. There was a little shade in the stands were they had the activities set up. They had a field where they would time you with the 40 yard dash, you could try and kick a field goal, a quarter back area where you tried to hit a target, and a flag football area. This is a great place to take the kids, especially around 8 and over. Then we moved to their practice fields. Most of the stands don't have shade and the sun was hot today. There are two areas that are shaded and I believe that one is even air conditioned but I'm not sure. I didn't know about that area or I would have paid extra for the shade. They had free water stations so you could fill a water bottle and cooling stations. They have away free Johnny Pops too. I had never had one before and they were delicious. Better than a popsicle. Concession stands were open too. Tickets were only $10 a piece and I paid extra for handicapped parking. Would I go again? Absolutely, but now I know how to be...
