Gone this year is the expensive cash-free system that was introduced last year, as fans feedback really bashed the concept. This festival drew about 43,000 last year, down from the 2016 crowd of 54,000. Capacity for the event is 60,000
Three-day general admission tickets for the festival are $179, while three-day VIP passes are $399. Both are on sale on Ticketmaster’s website now.
