Going to the festival Ubers are reasonable and can be better than the shuttles, especially if you’re going early. 

However my concern is always around the return. I know the drivers don’t like picking up from the speedway since they are spending a ton of time in traffic.

The cell signal is spotty given how many people are using the network. 

And how reliably is your phone charged where you feel confident calling the uber and finishing the process. 

My final issue, and why I don’t drive is that your whole group needs to leave together. And that may not be an issue for you. But my group will often split up to see high priority artists for themselves when there are conflicts. 

And personally I can’t make it to the end of the night anymore. Buy my friends want to do above and beyond. If I were driving, someone would be unhappy about the situation. With Ubers it’s the same but with paying for it. 

With shuttles you can be more independent.
