I have been to several major festivals …

if you’re like 18-24/25 goin and getting fukked up with your friends and just going for the experience then GA is legit

if you closer to 30 and over then you either need to get vip or have a connect to get you back stage and or places that make it comfortable

If you have the funds then paying extra for convenience is worth it
q

Thats what i was going to do this year but changed my mind. Next year I'm pretty sure I'm going

No shyt, if you have money these festival experiences or one thing if you’re with the mass public your experience is another

And if you’re over 30 and at the music festival like this, you should feel embarrassed

$10 for tater tots :dead:

It’s a festival, everything is supposed to be overcharged.

It cost $50 just to park at Busch Gardens on a regular Tuesday.

If you ain’t got no money keep your broke ass home.

No it doesn’t. Regular price is 30 and you can usually find a deal to cut that price.

Regular price :mjlol:

I don’t even look at that option.

You paying 30 bucks just to still have to walk for 30 minutes or catch the tram.

Preferred parking is like $50, breh.

Might be off a little bit because I’m a decade long season pass holder but that’s what I see on the sign as they smile, wave me in, and direct me to preferred parking.

Truth.

Every festival You're wading through crowds of people you're dealing with long lines you're dealing with overpriced food and drink and you're just dealing with a lot of exhaustion from being out in the sun.
AfroPunk wasn’t that big in ATL.

People complaining about food prices have to factor in the vendors’ expenses. I bet the cost just to set up there isn’t cheap if they’re paying headliners millions.

Coachella is like the united states: a bunch of bright lights to attend an overpriced tax zone. The markup prices are real.

I've been a few times and most of that shyt is accurate more or less. VIP made it much less hassle (like the parking issue) but that was more expensive and the prices for everything anyways is the same as general admission.

Great memories and again, food lines weren't long if you had VIP (pretty much most of the same restaurants as general admission) but again, all the merchandise lines were ridiculous and the merchandise itself is marked up af.

I think it's peak glory days are over - they aligned more with Beyonce's prime. That shyt went to the next level when Beyonce and Jay showed up to random sets and be in the crowd, Rihanna randomly walked around the festival, etc. The hype hasn't been the same ever since Beyonce headlined and pretty much brought that era to a close.

Additionally, the real VIP VIP sections (basically all the artists' people and executives friends/families) do take up a large part of the very front of the stage. All those people there act like the crowd is there to see them and you can tell are clout chasing on some "look at me we're w/ the artists" but problem is they ain't getting into the show like that which kills some hype.

Rolling Loud looks like it's starting to run with the trophy: top headliners, appeals to a younger crowd, more diverse, bigger cities, the VIP packages include much more, etc.

Preferred parking is $35, $50 is the multi day parking pass, next time read the whole sign. :mjlol:

Preferred parking is only 50 bucks for weekends in July. Even then regular parking is still 30 bucks.
