I like the new location for the Hoedown this year, but i think there needed to be more seating available. Also, it would be nice if there was a variety of alcohol available instead of just beer & slushies, maybe some mikes hard lemonade for the non beer drinkers. Overall i liked that the event was entry by ticket only since it got rid of alot of the trash that used to fill hart plaza simply because it was a free event. I enjoyed being around people that were paying customers because they are real country music fans! I will definitely be attending next year!

by Jenna0423 on 6/11/12Comerica Park Parking Lot - DetroitI am not a fan of new location. Will not attend next year if it's in a parking lot again. Uncomfortable with no where to sit, especially with them holding you hostage by not allowing re-entry.

by connie47 on 6/11/12Comerica Park Parking Lot - DetroitI went Friday night and thought it was great. Much better organized than when it was held at Hart Plaza. Beer prices were ridiculous.
Rating: 5 out of 5 the hoedown was the highlight if my year
by Missy2952 on 6/11/12Comerica Park Parking Lot - Detroitthis year was the best year of the hoedown i have been to. the acts were spectacular and so full of excited energy. the only thing i wish was different was that we could bring blankets so we could sit down especially when you will be standing for 6 or 7 hours.

by BaileyBoo609 on 6/11/12Comerica Park Parking Lot - DetroitI thoroughly enjoyed the hoedown this year. I liked that this year it was set in comerica park rather than heart plaza. I felt there was better crowd control and I was able to get closer to the stage. I loved that they also opened the ballpark up so when we needed a break we could sit in the stands to cool off and relax while still being able to listen to country music. Line up was amazing each night and kid rock's surprise performance was unforgettable!

by Anonymous on 6/11/12Comerica Park Parking Lot - DetroitThis was my first Downtown Hoedown that I have attended. I have to say I had an awesome time. Looking forward to next year. I had no problem paying for this event. We had purchased the 3 day passes. The recommendation I have is to have seating available around the main stage.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Hoedown best year yet
by Anonymous on 6/11/12Comerica Park Parking Lot - DetroitThis new location and charging for it reeeeally worked :) there were TONS of bathrooms and it was cleaner and waaaaay less people- maybe next year if its the sam ( charging and at copa) there can be stuff to do- like maybe open the ferris wheel and merry go round - since those that bought the day passes were "locked" in- i mean once they were in they couldnt exit the grounds, which would suck.

by SkinnersGurl on 6/11/12Comerica Park Parking Lot - DetroitThe event itself was great. The layout was great, 3 stages, plenty of room to see. If there was any downside it was that it was in Detroit, not a big fan of going downtown. But would do it again to go to the Hoedown.

Rating: 3 out of 5 okay just no seating
by nucmedgal on 6/10/12Comerica Park Parking Lot - DetroitI would honestly rather pay a little more and have seating in comerica. It is a really long day when you are on your feet for hours. I have been to other 3day concerts like the country concert in Ohio and they at least have a hill or seats that you can pay extra for. I sat on a curb and the same drunk guy fell on me twice. The performers were great and it was nice to feel safer on the comerica grounds....just poor set up for seating etc.

by JessicaZohr on 6/10/12Comerica Park Parking Lot - DetroitPersonally the hoedown this year sucked. The new location is terrible. It was basically a carnival with country music. The vendors were terrible it was all carnival food. There was nithing special about the new location except everything is too spread out. Ive been going to the hoedown for years and hart plaza is beyond belief better. If next year is like this im sorry but I will not be attending!
