Dinosaurs once again roam the earth in a spectacular theatrical arena show based on the award-winning BBC Television Series. WALKING WITH DINOSAURS – The Arena Spectacular is now on tour in North America and will perform eight performances at Boardwalk Hall. More than 2.4 million Americans have already seen the production since it opened in July 2007. WALKING WITH DINOSAURS – The Arena Spectacular is brought to North America by The Creature Production Company, headed by CEO Carmen Pavlovic. Pavlovic said, “The BBC Series was a brilliant blend of special effects, escapism, excitement and information. Our show brings together all of that, plus something extra - it’s live! In this production, fifteen roaring, snarling “live” dinosaurs mesmerize the audience – and are as awe-inspiring as when they first walked on earth. The dinosaurs are life-size, making the show so immense, it could only fit in arenas. It’s a $20 million arena spectacle of unprecedented size and quality, which captivates young and old alike. With Walking with Dinosaurs, we really believe we have created a new genre in entertainment and we hope to continue to bring new product to arenas for years to come.” Showtimes as follows: 7 PM shows Wednesday Sept. 2, Thursday Sept. 3 and Friday Sept. 4; 11 AM, 3 PM and 7 PM shows Saturday Sept. 5; 1 and 5 PM shows Sunday Sept

This is great news and will benefit both the locals in South Jersey and travelers wishing to get to Atlantic City, New Jersey by plane. Tourism related companies should research and implement a marketing strategy to get customers to visit Atlantic City from Atlanta and Orlando.

Jimmy Buffett Atlantic City August 23, 2009 - Boardwalk Hall

Jimmy Buffet and Coral Reefer Band Atlantic City

Boardwalk Hall Atlantic City, Sunday August 23, 2009

"Summerzcool" Tour Date has been announced for Jimmy Buffett in Atlantic City at Boardwalk Hall August 23, 2009. He's on the concert circuit once again in 2009, Jimmy Buffet is a very desirable ticket, so jump on them fast. It's amazing how many shows he sells out every year, I would guess he's up there with the top acts in world for number of sold out shows in a career. Tickets for the show were sold out in 8 minutes.

Many people like to watch a concert in Boardwalk Hall, they say there isn't a bad seat in the house and the sound is perfect due to the dome shape of the roof inside. Below are some really key tips for attending the Jimmy Buffet Atalntic City concert, I think they will really help you have an enjoyable time at the show. Dates August 23, 2009 at Boardwalk Hall

Jimmy Buffett Concert Tips
1. Tickets are hard to find, but make note that the row's in the 100 sections start with AA, BB etc and the row's in the 200 sections start with A, B, C etc

2. In my opinion the best seats are located in Sections 103, 123, 1, 2, 3, 223, 203, however there really isn't a bad seat in the place.

3. Don't Park Zones - Parking is very difficult, the parking locations to avoid are Trump Plaza Garage, Caesars Garage and Boardwalk Hall underground, they all cost over $20 and are all a major traffic jam before and after the show. Take it from a local, don't park in these areas.

4. Do Park in one of the surface lots within walking distance of Boardwalk Hall. A. Entrance Off Atlantic Ave between Mississippi ave and Georgia Ave. B. NJ Transportation Lot entrance off Mississippi ave between Arctic ave and Atlantic Ave. These lots will be both affordable and easy in and easy out, guaranteed!

5. Boardwalk Hall Vendors are very expensive, Beers are normally $8.50 for draft beer and like $4 for a soft pretzel as an example. Be prepared for this if you don't choose to eat and drink prior!

6. Here are few cool spots to grab a beer and maybe even eat something before the show. A. Ducktown Tavern located at Georgia and Atlantic Ave's, 1 block to Boardwalk Hall (Great local bar.) B. Liquid at the Trump Plaza just inside the boardwalk entrance on the right is always a fun place to hang out before the show.

Jimmy Buffet Atlantic City Concert Tickets are available online at the AC Ticket Guys LLC located in Atlantic City, NJ.

Hopefully these tips will help you to really enjoy this Jimmy Buffet Concert in Atlantic City this summer.
