As someone who has done Bonnaroo in both VIP and General Admission form I had a thought: Would it benefit the festival to offer another tier of pricing? Currently, there is GA, VIP, and Total Access. I would love to see a happy medium, both in price and amenities between Total Access and VIP. I didn`t find VIP to be great amenity wise and obviously Total Access is rock star great amenity wise. However for most folks, including myself, Total Access is cost prohibitive.
Thus my suggestion would be a " Super VIP" Option. Perhaps a tier with Free drinks, snacks if not meals, and more preferred seating at all or some of the tents. You could price it between the TA and regular VIP packages. Does anyone think this is a viable idea and if so how would be the best way to communicate it to Bonnaroo organizers? Thanks!
They just need to make VIP a better experience. It used to include food, but it was a logistical mess much of the time, so they decided to raise the price of the tickets and cut out the food. Thanks Bonnaroo! VIP used to actually be good, now it is only marginally better than GA. The only advantage VIP gets now is guaranteed parking near Centeroo. But if you are in the back of VIP and want to walk to the Other Tent, you are still in for a good 20 minute walk, then if you do that same walk back at 5 or 6am, they won't even let you cut across the main stage field to the VIP section. You pay $800 and they make you walk all the way back around Centeroo to the arch entrance at the time you are most tired. They used to let VIPs bring WHATEVER they want into Centeroo with no search, and now they make you finish your beers. The VIP experience has gone down hill with the rest of the festival.
^ a BETTER experience? It's pretty damn fantastic as it is, what with the A/C and running water, flushing toilets, short lines, leather sofas, free electronics charging, free laptops to use, and decent viewing.
What more does it need? Personal servants to apply sunscreen?
No, I agree w/the searches. But I have found that being in my 30s meant I was subjected to far less stringent searches than my younger friends. But the package is still FAR BETTER than GA.
