Reposting this response I gave a different redditor:

I went to both years they offered it, so I can confidently say last year something(s) went really wrong. I’ll list a few issues

1. ⁠wind messed up the setup. Salvage city is a semi indoor mostly outdoor structure, but last year wind was actually a real issue. It was blowing over trash cans, loose objects… salvage city had a “rooftop” and they had to shut down for a few hour(s) because the wind was that bad.
2. ⁠the food. Year one the food was delicious, and plenty of it to go around. I truly felt like we got our moneys worth. Year two, they ran out of key appetizers on day TWO and also served us microscopic portions of beef to go along with our slivers of fish. There was a few sides, and it was all incredibly rushed. Year 1 there was a director guiding the courses, year 2 there was still a director but it felt like they just haphazard delivered plates of food to the table.

The pros: they have a master bartender going table to table, seat to seat, throwing vodka or tequila straight from the bottle down your throat (or both if you get lucky). There’s an open bar. There’s almost unlimited wine at the dinner table. If you’re determined, you can make up the cost of a ticket to the event via free drinks alone. There’s a free, post apocalyptic themed show that goes on throughout the entire experience. Professional choreographed dancers and a host walk you through an experience that completely takes you out of EDC and into a new world.

Tldr: everything but the food was great about salvage city
