This is a great event drawing people in even from out of state. I saw the races in boats with…read moredragon prows, dance ceremonies, singing in a variety of genres, and a huge variety of foods along with other merchandise for sale. Tried and like a mix of different rices, beans and coconut cooked inside a piece of bamboo. There is parking across the street in a muddy lot (only drawback) and ample restrooms with no lines. The view of the river is nice. Various organizations have tables set up and give out swag. Come early if you don't like crowds, which grow over the course of the day. It's great to experience another culture in a friendly, welcoming atmosphere.

Much improved from 12 years ago, which is when I last went. I went a couple of summers and then I…read moregave up on it. (see last review) Well, it's grown to be MUCH bigger and it's also better. There are now vendors all the way down to the boat house. That's over a half mile of vendors. They actually DO sell Asian food now! There are vendors with clothes, jewelry, CDs, grocery-type items and much more. It was fun to watch the boat races. I'm glad they improved it. It's another great thing about Lowell. Get there early. It was crawling with people today. There was no parking in a mile radius. Even Sheehy Park's parking lot, across the river, was full.

Once a year the Atkinson Fire Department hosts a car show on their property. There is a variety of…read morevehicles from 57 Chevys, muscle cars, military jeeps, etc. There is something for everyone! The event is free and donations are accepted for parking. The town has scarecrows for sale for $25.00 to then decorate with your own theme and display on your property for the upcoming Fall season. The fire department personnel had burgers, hot dogs, chili, chips and drinks for sale. The lions club were selling fresh made fries and sausage and peppers. Everything was delicious and all the funds go towards the department. It's a worthy cause and entertainment that brings you outside and a way to enjoy some really cool cars!

We were in Theater #11 today, and the seats were disgusting, with the headrests worn through to…read morefabric and debris all over every seat we looked at. It wasn't crowded, at all, so we thought of moving, but we couldn't find two seats together in good condition. To make matters worse, there was a long strand of some kind of cobweb or gunk from the ceiling toward the front left of the theater, which blew in the air circulating and caused a shadow on the screen while the movie played. It was so gross and distracting. Why would they let a theater be this gross when it's hard enough to get people into the theater to begin with? Very bad. Expensive and shameful.

We did not enjoy watching in horror as some dumb lady bought a poor, helpless and squealing baby pig for her "40th birthday party". I guess I thought that the animals were all there to win ribbons and show off. Not the case, apparently. I know that is what farmers do, but I was not prepared to see that. Just shocked this suburb-girl. It was blazing hot the day we went, so we got some water and sat down to watch the oxen-pull, which was exciting! We enjoyed it so much that we stayed for the horse-pull. They also had rides, carnival games, a dog show, helicopter ride and so much more.

I was there this year for their annual 4th of July fireworks show on the boulevard. it wasn't a…read morebad show. There were numerous stands serving fan favorites like fried dough, fries, burgers and drinks.. (typical carnival style foods). The music performance that day kind of sucked but I guess it just wasn't to my taste since everyone else seemed to like it. It was muggy and overcrowded where we were sitting and there was an approaching thunderstorm. That made the fireworks all the more enjoyable since there was flashes of light behind distant clouds as the fireworks themselves were going off. The fire works themselves weren't too shabby at all! I loved the end where they went crazy and just unloaded everything.. a good minute or two. My nieces loved the smiley faced fireworks. The reason it got four and not five stars was because it was way too overcrowded.
