We bought our tickets a little while ago we have three day VIP hotel packages and the only email we have from them is the confirmation of our purchase we have nothing else. This is the first time this festival is happening so obviously there’s no prior year information to go off of so what has everybody received so far.

I thought we were supposed to get an email confirming our address and we didn’t so we chatted them and emailed them because we had moved and even though we purchased it in our new address we still called to confirm that the old address didn’t get inputted at all and wasn’t messing anything up. They confirmed that they have our new address and that nothing is shipping yet but I don’t know I wasn’t convinced.

I saw somewhere that we’re getting wristbands now instead of digital tickets when I sign into my axs app account with my email nothing is there about head trip but I’m able to see it when I go through my email links??

Spending nearly four grand on a vacation and getting no information about it is making me a little bit anxious🫣

Hello beautiful people, apologies if this is a little long :’)

This is gonna be my third EDC and my boyfriend’s second we’re gonna be celebrating his 30th birthday !! we are trying to make things kind of as convenient as possible but also keep it nice(ish). The last time we came to Vegas (with the help of some personal connections) we had 7 days at the Cosmo in a suite with a bath and balcony overlooking the fountains for like 3800 bucks. That plus ubers to the horseshoe and then the walk to the battle bots arena for the shuttle sucked. I am not looking to spend that kind of cash again especially for a hotel that doesn’t have a shuttle stop at it so we are looking at the rio and the strat to be realistic. My dad lives in Vegas, but nowhere near the strip so I don’t necessarily need to be on the strip to experience any novelties I can come back and do that at a later time. We’re talking convenience of how good the food is in the hotels bonus points for things to do outside the hotels walking around but I’m not expecting there to be anything.

I hear very mixed reviews about both hotels. We specifically would be interested in getting one of the remodeled tower suites at the Strat or getting one of the newer high floor King suites at the Rio. My gut is telling me to go with the Rio but I’m really interested in the Strat because it’s off the strip in a direction towards the venue so the ride should theoretically be shorter (i think). But the Rio has a better public reputation historically. I’ve also never really thought this hard into the logistics of getting there and back until this year as I’ve stayed at the Mirage and the Cosmo both times I went previously an Uber to my shuttles, and this time around I just don’t wanna do it . Both of these run us around 2-2.5k which is much better and in our budget.

While both of these are probably good viable options I would love some personal experiences from people who have done premier shuttles at these hotels and or have gotten a suit in the remodeled towers or rooms. We already have VIP tickets for the first weekend and we want to get the remodeled rooms primarily to guarantee cleanliness above all.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and offer any advice or testimonies if u did <3 see u under the electric sky :)
