Waitlist success?

I am waitlisted for two Sunday VIP tickets. This is my first Ohana (attempt lol) so I’m not familiar with the waitlist process. I already have a hotel - jumped on an amazing deal about three miles away - now I need the tickets! What are the chances of getting the tix? Are there other options? Thanks!

Ohana Festival

Has anyone ever watched the festival from outside the event area? I couldn’t get tickets for the festival, but I’d really love to at least hear Pearl Jam play. Is the experience worth it?

Eddie Vedder... and friends

This is the first time the lineup is neither Eddie Vedder or Eddie Vedder & the earthlings... I am curious who is going to show up for the friends part. Fiona apple or Jack White would be my fever dream

Advice for Our First Ohana Festival Trip

 Hi Everyone,

So, my dad dreams officially came true — I raised an amazing Pearl Jam fan! I knew all those years of playing PJ while he was growing up would eventually pay off.

This year, I’m planning to take my 13-year-old son to his very first concert, and I want to make sure it’s Pearl Jam at the Ohana Festival on 9/27. Neither of us has ever been to the festival before, so I was hoping to get some advice and recommendations from those of you with experience.

We’re traveling on a pretty tight budget and were only able to purchase single-day admission for Sunday, 9/27. We’ll be arriving on 9/26 and heading home on 9/28, coming from central Cali.

I’ve been looking at hotels near the venue, but prices are definitely on the higher side. I’m considering booking something farther away to help keep costs manageable, trying to stay for no more than $600/night for 4 of us. For those who have attended before:

  • Are there any nearby areas you’d recommend staying in that are more budget-friendly?
  • Is the venue fairly easy for drop-off and pick-up? My wife and daughter are joining us on the trip but won’t be attending the festival.
  • Suggested drop off/pickup location?
  • Any recommendations on what we should bring into the venue (if allowed) to make the day more comfortable?
  • Any other tips or advice for first-time attendees?

I really appreciate any insight or recommendations you can share. Thank you all in advance!

Transportation Options?

All the reasonable priced hotels are a good distance away (around 15 miles). What are the options for transportation? We will not have a car and there is little info on the Ohana site.

Are there shuttles or how would you folks who have been there before recommend for someone who is not familiar with the area to get to a hotel afterwards?

I would do Uber if I had to but I'm picturing extreme wait times, but who knows.

I love Childers and Pearl Jam and can't believe they are on the same bill. I appreciate any help.

How fast do tickets sell out

Hi all, first timer considering buying tickets for this year. In general, how fast do tickets usually sell out? We would be looking for 3 day GA tickets. Do we need to buy today? Thanks!

Resale options/Will-call tickets

I'm not looking to scalp, but I'm looking at buying tickets on short notice and am not 100% percent sure if this trip is going to happen (still a lot of logistics to figure out as I'm from outside the country).

It would be nice to know I can resell the tickets if a potential trip falls through, but I see that the tickets (at least for international customers) are will-call pickup.

Does this mean the tickets cannot be transferred? Does anyone know if it is possible to do so and how one would do it, if necessary? Thanks in advance.

It won’t accept my billing info!

Ok, I missed the Sunday tix I wanted so I thought I’d join the waitlist. I’ve been at this on and off for an hour now and it refuses to accept my billing info! Tried 2 cards, Venmo, VPN on an d VPN off, relaoded, used a different browser, used a laptop and phone. Anyone else having this issue? Anyone have any tips? Now it’s just a personal insult and a challenge.

Hilton Garden Inn Dana Point

We always stay at the Dana Point Marina Inn when we go to Ohana, but this year we're staying at the Hilton Garden Inn due to our budget. Anyone stayed there before? Looks like a pretty cool rooftop bar and a quick walk to the fest.

Sunday 1-Day VIP Sold Out?

I'm a Ten Club member and went to go purchase a Sunday 1-Day VIP ticket, but don't see the option. Are VIP tickets for Sunday completely sold out? Could more of these be offered when Presale opens to public on 5/14 at 10am PT?
