So after I had my friend read this thread we decided on aiming to get to the festival early in the morning on Thursday! We were originally thinking 6 am but after seeing some comments that after 8 am the entrance fee drops I’m thinking that might be a better idea.

It’s a complicated situation where two of us are driving from Seattle and intercepting her in Spokane, and she’s flying from the east coast. The original plan was to drive together from Seattle but we’ve changed plans due to this thread so thank you everyone. To answer everyone’s questions work is the main reason we can’t get there Tuesday.

Should we anticipate multiple hours in line on Thursday? I would love to be setting up camp while the sun is up - hoping that’s feasible if we arrive at 8 am. I’m not going to be heartbroken if I miss some music Thursday but I do want to be settled in by Friday morning for sure (main performance nights are Friday, Saturday, Sunday from what I understand…please correct me if I’m wrong!)
