Really cool little area with a great lawn for the stage view. I went for the MS walk and had a great time. The stage is on a small man made pond, with plenty of room for everyone. Great place for a walk or to take the little ones. Id go back for a concert for sure.

It may not look like much but it holds a TON of people. Come early to get a spot for the Charlotte Symphony Summer Pops series. Bring your low chairs, coolers, and smiles and enjoy live music.

Went for the Colombian festival that takes place every year. Its a nice place to bring the family, just be sure to bring chairs and umbrellas!

Nice relaxing space to enjoy a concert. Saw the Star Wars edition of the Summer Pops series here, and the sound was fantastic.

Lawn seating with a good view of the stage. Lovely evening with good music and fireworks as the finale. Exiting surrounding parking areas was no problem.

Quiet place to visit with some supplied Adirondack chairs.

Our joyful evening out:- We arrived at 5:00 pm, set up our spot for four adults and one toddler, and then ate our dinner.- At 6:00p pm the warm up group delighted us with music and singing until about 7:45.- At 8:15 the Charlotte Summer at the Park Orchestra performed beautiful hits from Broadway Musicals.***. Thats what I call a delightful night out!

Relaxing- well manicured lush greenery- great for kids

They have a great show every fourth of July with a performance by the Charlotte Symphony, of American songs, a salute to our military forces and a fireworks show after. My family and I enjoy it each year we go. Arrive early as it becomes crowded quickly. I recommend a blanket or tarp to mark your spot and beach chairs. I recommend beach chairs to stay low to the ground, so you are polite and do not block others views. Many people bring a wide variety of food and drinks to enjoy during the show. Alcohol is permitted.

The water latern festival was fun and different. It seemed to draw a large crowd and managed to stimulate interaction among various ages and cultural backgrounds. The spectacle itself was outstanding. The music was also diverse and engaging. My only critique was for the energy of the main emcee at the event. He dropped some Debbie downer energy into the atmosphere and each person on the mic afterward kinda followed his lead. As much as I appreciate authenticity and transparency... I think theres a limit to how much a crowd of people at a festival can be exposed to narratives around death, sickness, and suicide without catching a case of the gloomies... Nevertheless, the crowd endured and the event was a success.

Great outdoor venue! We go to symphony in the park all the time!Id love to see this space utilized more. I think a farmers market would do extremely well here!

Great a lot of activities there!! Good for Families and friends!!!

Excellent spot but limited in space.

Great music and surrounding

While it was hot on the 4th of July, the concert and fireworks were exceptional! Bring a lawn chair and cooler for sure! Maybe something to block the sun on hot days.This is one of Charlottes great public offerings. Take advantage of it!Five Stars

Wonderful venue for concerts. The car noise can be a problem at times. I have yet to find a list of events to see what is on the program when. Any links out there?

We went for the fireworks. It was a tad painful getting the youngster to sit still furing the symphony portion. The symphony was great and we had a good time visiting with friends. The fireworks were amazing. But the parking situation is absolutely insane. We went. We did it we probably wont ever do it again.

Awesome experience! Will definitely do it again!

Columbian festival was fun from 7-10pm but they was talking the WHOLE time from 12-6pm basically and everybody was sitting down for majority of the time. It got better once the people stopped talking and let the music play

A little crowded. Didnt handle the crowds very well trying to get in, didnt see any trouble. That was nice. Enjoyed the music.

Very nice place, but people have to be prepared with some food and drink before going. As it was my first time, I was not prepared, but still it was wonderful.

Summer Pops with CSO is a great way to spend the day

We went for one of the Summer Pops Concerts. We arrived about 6 pm and didnt have much choice in finding a spot for our group to sit. Next time Ill be there when the gates open at 5 pm & bring a picnic instead of just snacks.

I went to the 4th of July Symphony and it was awesome! Bring your lawn chair and think seriously about an umbrella for the sun. A cooler is smart to!

Charlotte symphony was outstanding- the park arrangements were very well organized- crowds were very civil and very well behaved - commend city council to promote such events. They mimic a lot of similar concerts in Italy & Austria

Was at the Parkinsons walk today. Pouring down rain! We had a great turnout. The park always looks really nice.

Pops in the Park is so ething I look forward to every summer! Also check out the movie nights for kids in August!

We came for the water lantern festival. It was very beautiful. We brought our own markers to decorate the lanterns. It was planned well.

We attended the OneWorld Lantern Festival

Getting to go here for larger headlined or themed events is so much fun.If you go during the day, bring sun screen and a floppy hat, if you go during the evening, bring bug spray (please dont blast all of those around you too)Beer and wine is allowed, and thankfully smoking is not allowed anywhere on the lawn. The live music is great, parking can be tight, or far away if youre attending a large event so arrive early or pack light.The only reason this is a 4/5 review is chairs.Please be considerate to those around you. The stage is slightly downhill from the lawn, and as such sitting any higher than your butt on the ground, blocks most of the view of the stage for EVERYONE behind you, so please, please just sit on a blanket, if you need a back rest use a low chair like a beach chair, not a fold out camping/sports chair.I attended a Starwars themed concert and the amount of people completely blocking the view of the stage with huge, tall chairs was unbelievable. Please think of others.I cannot wait to go back and attend the videogame themed concert they will be hosting soon

We went for the water lantern festival. It was ok. Cold and wet but we were able to get under the awning. Not designed for easy water access.

Great outdoor Venue!

For the reason I was there it was great times but it should be a lil better maintain!

Love to see the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra in action. Just get there super early!

Music in the park 4th of July celebration was awesome.

I love all the events that go on here! A great open area to view the stage!

Its a great open space and near the mall

Beautiful park, great area! Ive been here for the MS Walk for the last 3 years and its absolutely gorgeous.

I love coming here for the Summer Pops with the Charlotte Symphony!! It is my happy place. So clean and the stage is so beautiful! My only complaint is there is not enough events that go on here-- I want more excuses to sit outside and enjoy art!

It was very nice event! Even though it rained and was cold it was fun

Attended a throwback Festival in July the music was good. Purchased VIP seating, but there was not a porta potty in the VIP section very disappointed. VIP tickets should have VIP amenities, Point Blank.

Beautiful and well maintained park!

GreAt acoustics, for outside music, near hotels and Southpark...nice stage and pond.katie Brett

Worse Latin Festival EVER!!!!! I was told my 2year old couldnt bring water in. I get it, people try to sneak stuff in but our son had a water cup filled with H20 in HIS HAND!! But the reason volunteer man PEDRO told us was because the City Ordinance doesnt allow outside water. Excuse me Charlotte NC but in CLE Ohio (where its COLDER) they allows H20 on Hot days because of health reasons. Also, Tony the Facilitator seemed a little overwhelmed with his volunteers. Being a company owner from Ohio makes me not want to do business with Charlotte NC. I choose to stay in NC only because its a grow state. Then after speaking to a volunteer besides Pedro I was informed that the law was created due to health reasons again but found out from Tony that this was not the case. Tony then stated that he would deal with Pedro but I see no action. I would not suggest going to this park spending any money in Charlotte North spending any money with the Latin Festival. I told my family not to visit, Ive told my neighbors not to visit, Ive told the 1 million people that follow us not to go to your Park have a great day Charlotte hope that you get this under control.

Beautiful area. Was here for a Beer and BBQ festival. Nice grassy area with shade for hot moments. Stage area is great. Sound from the band carried well while we walked around the venue. Would attend another event here.

Great venue for aymphony. Family friendly with plenty of parking. Police were directing traffic as event ended for first time which really helped traffic flow.

Nice park and the Colombian festival was great

Small park, no kids playground nor a restroom. Good for a short walk.

Wonderful day at the wine festival

Came for the wine festival always a joy

Very nice area for festivals!!

Fantastic location, quite relaxing

Great music in the park event

Beautiful park. Lots of trees.

Symphony Park is home to several awareness walks, with wide open spaces for tents and a huge stage. We always have fun doing what we love!

Great place for summer pips.

Puerto Rican Festival

Great 5ks start and end here..

Good amount of space no dog area though

Excellent experience to have a latín festival. Nice venue, great concert. Food prices a little high, portions were large as only Latin cultures do. Food was excelente.

Excellent for whole the family.

Nice place, probably need some else but so far I like, I was last week for 28th Latin festival.

Great Time Good music

Great place for an artful evening

Beautiful place for photos.

Nice place to take the famiky

I was there with family and friends for the 2018 Puerto Rican Festival on Saturday August 11 and We had a lot of fun.

Had fun at the NC chapter of ALS

Everyone was friendly and helpful. The concert was very entertaining.

This is a great venue but I think it is under utilized! this could easily be a top spot for concerts in addition to Sunday symphony shows

Nice park but there needs to be a better system for guests wanting to use the restroom. They were a lot of dirty port a potties!!!!

Saw the Charlotte Symphony playing jazz standards. Loved it! Lawn seating, positive crowd, reasonable cost.

Nice outdoor amphitheatre with a large grassy area for seating but parking is tough. The amphitheatre doesnt have its own seperate parking for events. You have use the mall and surrounding businesses so be prepared for congestion and long walks.

Had a wonderful time here with my wife. We will definitely look at going back. Awesome setting and safe.

Great park but needs to be worked on. Lawn and parking needs work

The puerto rican festival was great in the park

Just wonderful place to be

Enjoyed evening with family ...movies under the stars. Nice and clean environs

Love coming here for the summer pops series. They let people in at 5 to set up blankets for the show later in the evening.

Great park with restroom ammentaties.

We had a great time at the puerto rican festival! The park was nice and big. Just needs more trees.

Had a wonderful time doing the ALS Walk with My boyfriend Kelly Bolick and family members. We walked the whole 2 Miles without stopping. Thank you God for the strength you gave us.

Good peaceful place to visit. I would recommend it.

Great family park, quite, Great time at the jazz fest.

Great place to listen to free concerts after work. Very popular with the under 30 crowd.

I love it you can bring your family to have a picnic or for a walk.

Quiet place during the day with a nice pond with ducks to feed. Music and other events almost monthly:)

I love it. The music is amazing!!

Beautiful park in South Park. Have gone to symphony at the Park twice and loved it both times. People bring chairs, picnic baskets, candles, wine, blankets, mini tables, everything!

Great symphonies

Outdoor place for music ....nice

Great outings lots of fun

Puerto Rican Festival was fun, well staffed and entertaining! Hope it becomes an annual event!!

Summers on the grass. It just get way to crowded now a days.

Fantastic atmosphere! Chill on the lawn with a nice glass of wine and enjoy the music.

Came here for the Puerto Rican Day Festival in it was extremely lovable

Wonder!! 4th of July Symphony

Its a great venue. Wish they had more events there.

Nice venue!

Beautiful facility
