    No problem! I think if you pay in advance, unless it went up, is only about 90 a night plus taxes. Short car ride to just about anywhere and right beside the airport with a free shuttle.

    Agreed. It’s just so loud out there. Rear hanging PA stacks from the pavilion, the roof is high, the sunsets are epic, etc. I love it out there.

    My recordings of the shows last year from the lawn came out much better than I thought they would, because of how good they have the sound out there.

    Used to tailgate every year. It just gets brutally hot. We now hang at the pool and uber over around 5:30. Makes it a lot more enjoyable. You will get a rain storm followed by brutal humidity every year.

    The last 2 years or so there has been very little to no rain. I found last year to be not too bad as far as heat and humidity. The year before that felt much hotter though. Either way, just hydrate and you'll be fine. It's all part of the WPB experience.

    Last year the radar looked like we were about to get blown away in a thunderstorm in the lawn during the show. Drizzled slightly for a few minutes and then went away. Very lucky haha.

    One of the smallest. I always go ahead and request pits to have as many chances as possible.
    Lots of pit tickets and lowers seem to get held back, which leads to instants and TM drops. Last year we hit TM pits for both nights about 2 weeks out on a random drop.

    Yeah thry hold back a bunch to try and scalp as platinum tix. I remember last year thry were asking $500+ fees for night 1. Eventually they have to cave and sell what's left for face I guess.

    Last year was impossible to get lowers. The tickets on TM were insulting pricewise.

    Last year pool side drinks were a nightmare. They don't let you bring your own, which is understandable, but they were understaffed and drinks took a loooong time. The scene was good tho. Trying something different this year.

    N1 they dropped literally dozens of lowers for $115 the day of the show. Tickets that hadn't been available as platinum even, or at least I hadn't seen them as platinums. Probably the biggest day of lowers drop I've ever seen at WPB.

    But who the hell wants to wait until the tailgate to try to score like that?

    So for a family that usually does like PCB or Destin, would a week at WPB with of course DMB suffice? Teenage daughters, would probably go to one show, but trying to combine some costs this summer. Beaches all right?Mainly pool, sunsets, and beach time. We aren't too adventerous. Looking for Air BnB. Thanks all!

    Destin and PCB are not really at all like West Palm. Area wise at least.

    West palm is still a great family spot and y’all will have a great time

    From the very small sample size of my friend circle it seems like a ton of straight declines for WPB this year, both nights. I know a lot of people who got fully shutout, surprising to me. Normally uppers are a safe bet through the WH sale.
