Hard Rock Park - A Great Value!

One of the newest attractions in Myrtle Beach is the beautiful Hard Rock Park. As a local and a Hard Rock Park Ambassador, I have the luxury and benefit of enjoying the park anytime. The free pass for ambassadors definitely helps....thanks HRP! So, for visitors to Myrtle Beach, here are some the reasons you should add this to you list of Myrtle Beach to-dos.

You get an all-day pass! You can leave the park and come back anytime so I suggest you get there early to take advantage of this benefit. This pass is perfect because you may want to come during the day, ride the rides, go back to your hotel, change and be back for the evening concerts, shows or fireworks.

While you're at the park, you may want to take a break from the heat. So, chekc out one of the many shows that they offer throughout the day. Now, these on not just your average shows. I saw the County on Ice a few weeks ago and couldn't believe the performance. These guys and gals are ICE Skating!!.... to country music.... on a stage.....who would of thought.?! They were flipping, jumping, dancing and being thrown around to all the country hits....my favorite genre of music. The whole time, you can't even can't take your eyes off the stage for fear of missing something.

The Rides!! - Oh yeah.....I forgot:)) These rides are amazing....all set to rock and roll music. Whether you like crazy coasters like the Led Zeppelin or more mellow rides like the Moody Blues, there something for everyone. Plus there are a lot of kids treats, like a mini water park, mini ropes course and the traditional kids/baby rides.

Speaking of rock and roll....as you walk around the park, pay attention to the acoustics. I heard the pr/media info about the great sound systems but was a bit skeptical. But, now that I have seen, I understand. As I was walking from Born in the USA into British Invasion, I couldn't even remember that I was just singing a Bruce Springsteen song just 30 seconds ago. It' crazy! I don't know how they've done this, especially since everything is outdoors, but they've done it well.

At night, you can sing and dance to amazing concerts, both regional and national including Sister Hazel who played 4th of July Weekend. After the show, walk over to the lake and enjoy an awesome firework show set to the music of Bohemian Rhapsody. The park closes late so even when the fireworks show is over...around 11...the night is young!

Bottom line.........if you love rock and roll, rides, coasters, concerts, shows, fireworks, food, drink and fun.....Hit Hard Rock Park!! http://www.hardrockpark.com/

All of this for only $50. Plus, with the current family promotions, the cost is just $40 per person. Of course, they offer discounts for kids. Is that a great deal or what?!
