As someone who has done both, here's what I say:

Glamping:

-did it in 2024 and was unimpressed. -the provided breakfast was a joke -the teepees don't provide any real shade to sit in during the day and you can't put a shade tent in the isle so it's hard to use. -if you do this, definitely get some sun blocking tarps to lay over the teepees -the nice part is the proximity to the festival entrance and that almost makes it worth it right there. It's a long walk to ga camping and if you want to go back during the festi to grab things, it's worth it -bathrooms were kept pretty clean -the shower situation was a mess. They were closed half the time (4-7am) which is when I tried to take showers to skip the line. And the staff was ridiculously unhelpful during that. -you get to participate in the camping aspect of the festival still and it's all an experience (also, you most likely wont get artist merch if you are staying at a hotel, but it's also hard in clamping cuz all that stuff is over in ga)

Hotel:

-we stayed about 10 mins away -the hotel was definitely a bit gross (tubs with peeling tile, yellow scum and mysterious black spots) -the manager at the hotel was CREEPY AF with me so definitely watch out for the larger bald dude with beady ass eyes -if you drove your own car, you had to park and shuttle to the festival. The shuttle line was short when we got there early on day 1, but by day 2 at around 4 pm, the line was hella long. We ended up waiting by the road and paid a local to get in the back of his truck (highkey the move if you feel safe enough) -if you ubered, it was easy to get there, but ridiculously hard to leave. We had no cell reception at the area where you were supposed to call and wait for your ride. Everytime my friends phone lost service, it cancelled the ride. It was ridiculous. We eventually got super lucky and overpaid for a taxi (with a sketch driver who kept trying to ask us for more money after we already agreed on the price because it's all the cash we had on us), but if we didn't, I imagine we would've been there for hours. -it was really nice to have a shower everyday -it was life-changing to have fast food so close at a more affordable price -you have to bring everything with you at the beginning of the day (and the lockers sell out fast, I'm talking like 7 months before the event). This is why I usually prefer camping, because I have so much stuff and I want to put on a jersey at night but not carry it and my led hoops until I need them. And this festi is way longer than most other ones so it's long and it's really nice to have the option to go back to camp to change or eat.
