They need more people to transport it is a unbelievably long walk!! The concert was spectacular!!!!
Great concert, the entertainment was exceptional, and venue was outstanding, and all accommodations were available. Beautiful place!
The concert was awesome! Randall King and Ian Munsick put on an awesome show followed by Cody who is just as good as I knew he would be! I would see any of these 3 again.
Concert was fantastic! Beverages/food were way overpriced compared to other venues. Parking lots were a complete nightmare! Will never return to this park!
Bought tickets from Ticketmaster app, that all went flawless. Concert itself was AMAZING. Second time seeing Cody and it certainly won’t be the last. The venue is beautiful but could definitely make some improvements. I’d seen horror stories about traffic so arrived about 2 hours before the concert gates opened. I had no trouble getting parked and there were food trucks and things to walk around and do. There are 2 gates they funnel everyone through to make the walk to the seating area. This is where I feel the venue is poorly set up. There aren’t any ropes or barriers to help lines forming so the entire hill top just becomes a mass of people standing, with no one knowing what “lines” are going where. My suggestions if going to Thunder Ridge Arena in Ridgedale MO. -Pay for the diamond or premium parking -Go early, hours early! -spend the money for the lawn chairs
THE WHOLE EXPIERENCE WAS GREAT. THE OPENS WERE GREAT AS WELL
4th time seeing COJO and never disappoints! He should be Entertainer of the Year! So underrated! First time seeing Ian Munsick and was INCREDIBLE! I will be seeing him again! Thunder Ridge Arena was absolutely beautiful my first time going there! Just a long walk in boots lol.
If he didn’t have a wife… I’d jump on him like no other!!
This was such a great show, Randall king was awesome, Ian Munsick is fantastic !!!! Cody is always always so freaking good! It was hot but so worth it. Excellent show!! Prob one of my favorites ever with such great openers and Cody!!!
The venue is an awesome place but there needs to be some subtle improvements. On the entrance walkways where people stand before entering in the main gate, an improvement that could be made would be to put up some shade cloth for folks to wait under. Another improvement would be to allow concert goers to bring their own stadium seats instead of having to only rent from the venue. Lastly would be to have more soda on hand for the non-alcohol drinkers.
The absolute BEST concert ever and I’ve been to a lot!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
4 stars because the concert was phenomenal but the venue lacks. $25 a mixed drink is ridiculous. Didn't even pay that at Arrowhead.
Cody, Randell & Ian were amazing!! The venue was nice but leaving & getting out was pure hell!!
Cody Johnson will entertain you from the moment he steps foot on the stage. His voice is like butter and his love for the audience is pure.
That fair was a madhouse for anyone with any type of disability, or being there period. This fair has to plan better, the let people stand around a drink , not stay seated while the performer is performing. It’s always so chaotic all the time, takes the fun out of the experience..
We had a great time at Cody Johnson Concert! High energy the whole stadium was right there with him too! Would definately see him again! Great band tight group love it!
One of the most energetic and patriotic concerts I have been to in a long time! Thank you Mr. Cody Johnson for making the trip to California and spending a fun filled evening with us! We had a night to remember! You are a class act! ❤️🇺🇸💙
We enjoyed the concert. Cody has learned some valuable tools for the kit. He sings about life. He includes the hard working people that buy the tickets. Cheers the military, the 1st responders, and the crew. Remember the people that raise the children called “parents” and Cody will have everything needed to be successful. Great show, lots of fun!
I’ve seen Cody Johnson multiple times. He always puts on an amazing show! However, my problem is with how unorganized this venue is. My husband and I won’t be coming back anytime soon to the midstate fair to see a concert. No workers to be found anywhere to ask a question; no one manning the walkways that were blocked so walking anywhere was nearly impossible; the alcohol and merch booth lines were filled with people bunched up and cutting through. Wish it was more organized
Excellent concert-his interaction with the crowd was great! Love his music!
