Symphony Park — Attraction in Las Vegas

I LOVE this park!!!! I have been a Broadway Las Vegas season ticket holder from Day 1. Most people rush into Reynolds Hall to see the show and then rush out to get home. I, instead, like to let the performance marinate in my mind in the idyllic setting of Donald W. Reynolds Symphony Park. After I've had enough of gorgeous mother nature, I get in my car and enjoy the unfrenzied ride home. There are plenty of benches for a meditative moment. Symphony Park is a 1.9 acre rectangle next to the Smith Center. It's a surprisingly quiet, green oasis in the midst of mass activity. People rent the park for events, so you might come across a stage with lights and table-cloth-covered tables for private parties. The Smith Center says you can seat 1,200 there. But to me this is an intimate space. I've been to Zumba festivals at the park back in the day. And I saw Teller's version of "The Tempest" in a tent here. (Awesome.) But the park is best when it's just a park. Sculptures dot the park. There's also a statue of Don hisself. I love the signature colored spikes that pierce of azure-blue Las Vegas Sky. Most ticket-holders going to events at the Smith Center ignore this magnificent green spot. Do spend a moment the next time...

I have been coming to this park for two years sometimes with just my husband and friends on our bikes and sometimes with my grandkids on their bikes. We even celebrated my birthday here with a banner and a full-blown picnic. Today I was told that we are not allowed to be at the park. We had brought a couple of chairs and some snacks so our grandkids could have a great day at this beautiful park but security came over and harassed us telling us that we are not allowed to be at the park with chairs which makes zero sense since it’s a park and then they continue to circle us on their bikes until we left. It’s such a shame that a beautiful park is now going to waste because they’re harassing decent people that wanna enjoy a place downtown. They said that their sign said people are in allowed to be there with chairs but that’s not the case I did not see that on the sign all I saw was there was no camping allowed security made it sound like you never know what kind of people would be down at the park. Like I said very unfortunate I guess we’ll have to find somewhere else to enjoy now...

We came to see one of the Broadway plays. I've been many times for these plays. It's always a fun adventure. There are a few seats that are bad inside the theater. They'll be much lower price. Even if you go up in the higher balcony you can still see the stage fine if your eyes are still good. Just trying to avoid Rose. Probably a and b to be able to see over the safety bar. The parking garage on site is quick and easy to get into an out of. And all of the garages are only $6 for event parking. And you can walk over to the outlet mall and do some shopping and catch dinner if you want and it won't cost you any more on your parking. The grounds are very pretty to walk around so if you have the time,...
