What to the breakaway festival at this venue. This venue had a beautiful view of the sunset. I had an amazing grassy Hill to sit on. You could overlook the entire festival it was beautiful. There's also a big area down below where you can dance, dance, dance the night away. The drinks were extremely pricey. They could have had some more food vendors it was very packed I don't feel that there was enough food for the people the lines were extremely long. The sound quality was pretty dang good. There was a silent disco up above the hill in the main stage below the hill. Security was doing their job but they were also not too harsh. The bathroom facilities were not horrible but they could have had a few more but I've definitely seen worse I'd have to give them a six out of ten for the bathroom. I felt like the venue was well-lit with also the appropriate amount of darkness depending on the atmosphere you wanted to relax in. I will definitely be back to this venue to see a concert. I would also say it is kid friendly. You have to find parking outside of the venue on the so you may have to go for a little walk to get into the venue be aware.

Had a great time at the upheaval festival at Belknap Park. The only thing I would suggest is moving the food to several different locations around the festival. The way they had the porta potties right next to the food area was not very appetizing and it caused huge traffic jams of people trying to get through the lines of food. People ended up cutting lines that were already an hour long for some foods (burgers, pizza). All around beautiful space tho!

If you’re in the area Breakaway is such a good festival to visit! We’ve seen Deadmau5, Marshmello, Alison Wonderland, and many other artists in the last 2 years. It’s always an amazing show, the lights are great, the artists knock it out of the park (no pun intended), and you’ll meet some terrific people! I recommend buying tickets early to get cheapest prices 😋

1 merch tent (no hyperbole, over a 3 hour wait in line) and 4 portajohns (at 2nd stage. Didn't see any others) for 8ish thousand people. Highly disappointed in this venue as a concert/festival holder. Both stages had above avg sound. Friendly people made the night bearable. I recommend buying merchandise directly from your favorite bands website. 👎😔

Belknap Park is a great place to play baseball in the summer, sled in the winter and get a nice view of Grand Rapids whenever you feel it’s right. Take you significant other there and watch the sunset. It’s beautiful. It’s also the home of Breakaway Festival which brings popular artists to the city every year. Check it out!

Nice place. Running up the hill is horrible but is a great H.I.I.T workout. I’m not sure if the baseball field is open to the public but it’s well taken care of and would be a great place to have a community event. Pickleball is very popular here! Courts are almost always occupied!
