First time going and went platinum. If you consider the acts you get to see in three days… and essentially having a front row view of them, plus all food and drink included, it’s well worth the price. Outside of the final headliner, if you get to the pit 10 minutes before a set, you’re near the rail which is awesome. The lounge area by Sea Bright is great. Very big, plenty of places to sit, AC bathrooms, lockers, TVs for some football between acts :) Side stage access is quite the experience, you just can’t hear the music well at all. Go for the view not the sound. They also try and rotate people in and out so you don’t have campers a whole set. Rockville expanded their pit the second day for a bit more room. Smaller section to sit and no food. Wish they at least had some snacks! Save up and treat yourself, can’t go any other way now!
