By luck I learned Will Smith was touring for his new self-titled book beginning in Philadelphia. As I am a long time fan of his, I was glad to have an opportunity to see him live. I had no idea what to anticipate but I bought two tickets for me and a friend in the LOGE 3 seating area. I used my best judgement with the seating map of the Met to gage where to sit and how much I could afford to spend. I found two tickets right in the middle of LOGE 3 at the very front. My best friend and I enjoyed this event so much! A conversation with Queen Latifa and Will Smith was worth every bit of money and time spent. I prepaid for a parking area in lot D. Finding the lot was no problem and the walking distance wasn’t too bad to get to the Met. It was our first time visiting the Met for any event. The one thing I might recommend is a series of signs from Lot D that direct patrons to the Met. I had to use my cell phone and thankfully it was charged enough to use my map app. The Met itself did feel very crowded but my best friend and I were prepared with masks if necessary and had brought our vaccination cards along with our IDs and our tickets on the phone app.
Not only being a fan of Will but his show was amazing
From the moment Will Smith walked out on the stage the night was magical. There was so much love and admiration in the building for Mr. Smith. He was so engaging and funny and knowledgeable. This was the best evening I have had in years! AND A FREE MINI CONCERT! WHO CAN ASK FOR ANYTHING MORE. CHICAGO LOVES WILL SMITH!!!
It was an amazing experience. I am a HUGE Will Smith fan, so just being able to be in the same building as him was amazing. Of course he dropped some gems, and that was my main goal was to learn something. Everyone also got a book included with the ticket, so that was even better.
I gave 5 stars but it really should have been 3. The show was great (5 stars). The miscommunication regarding the COVID policy and procedures was upsetting (3 stars). Just like with other shows I’ve attended I received an email with the covid protocols put in place, which was basically to wear a mask and that they are not responsible if I caught the virus. Once I got to the venue I was asked to show my vaccination record which I didn’t have so I had to take a test prior to entering. This caused me to miss 30 minutes of the show. With that said if I was told what the expectations were I would have arrived earlier.
Will was everything!!! The visuals for the discussion were ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!! He interacted with the New York crowd with honesty and candidness. So glad I had the opportunity to see this Legend personally!
This was my 1st time ever going to an event like this!! I surprised my wife with a "Date Night" and it didn't disappoint. A Rollercoaster of emotions but very enlightening and we had an amazing time overall!!
Amazing!! So glad I got my ticket! Will seriously brought this book to life!! He needs to make a movie of his life!
This was an amazing evening of music and raw vulnerability. Loved everything about this event including getting a copy of Will Smith's new book as a gift.
