Live Performance sights in USA

  1. A

    Fremont Street Experience

    The 1400ft-long canopy over downtown’s Fremont St is steroid-enhanced by 550,000 watts of concert-hall sound and a super-big Viva Vision screen. When the 12.5-million synchronized LEDs come on, cheesy sound-and-light shows are awesome enough to hypnotize every spectator (especially drunks). A misting system built into the canopy spritzes cool relief on steamy, hot summer days.

    Center for Puppetry Arts

    Center for Puppetry Arts is a wonderland for visitors of all ages, and hands-down one of Atlanta's most unique attractions. The museum houses a treasury of puppets, some of which you get to operate yourself. Separate tickets are required for the performances.

    Comerica Park

    Next door to Ford Field, the Tigers (in case you hadn't guessed from the giant stone animals roaring over the entrance) play pro baseball here. The park is particularly kid friendly, with a small Ferris wheel and carousel inside.
