Do you know if this is like the one in south El Monte?

Hi I have a question I know it's by the water so are there a lot of mosquitoes? Are there two different lines for general admission and anytime? And would you say it's allowed and are there a lot of strobe lights

I don’t recall having any issues with mosquitos, but it was on the cooler side when we went so I had on long pants and boots, which may have deterred the mosquitos. Also we went at opening time so there wasn’t a line to get in. It didn’t appear that they had separate lines or entrances set up. I don’t think I noticed strobe lights specifically but I think there are some areas with twinkle lights that alternate colors.
