"This was the most amazing family festival I have ever been to. So much fun for kids. My son got to play in a Viking ship with their helmets and swords, get his face painted, play laser tag, and hula hoop. The entertainment and show was incredible! I felt like I was watching a famous show in Las Vegas. I will go every year."  -Leah Belleci
