A BUSY DAY
If you'd been here on a weekend like this,
you'd have needed a plan to get on the headliners.
Mar 22, 2026 came in at a 7/10, the kind of day where The Great American Scream Machine can eat two hours of your morning. Crowds dipped to a 6 out of ten for 4 straight hours between 2 PM and 5 PM.
