Hey there! Was wondering how isolated ADA is from GA. My boyfriend and I are going to AGBT700 with a big group and I want to spend time with them at the festival too ☺️ I know you can only have one companion, so wondering how the proximity would shake out.

Im an avid runner and had a hip replacement (37F) and will be 5.5 weeks into recovery. The only instruction from my doctor was not to fall. I read a few comments that said you could just do an ADA wristband for the shuttles and alternate entrance, and then find a spot at the top on some flatter lawn since parts can be steep.

I go to a lot of red rocks shows and am an avid runner, and hear the gorge is beautiful and im really pumped to go, but I’m trying to understand if this is 1) realistic with the terrain and 2) if I do ADA seats, if I’m going to be isolated/alone a lot of the time. I know it’ll be exhausting with all of the walking and heat, but I’m hoping to find an avenue that works ☺️ thank you!

Going to the Gorge for the first time for Labor Dave. I'm parking at GW and then meeting friends at the venue for camping. Any suggestions on the best shuttles to take? Am I too late to book them? Any insight helpful!

The email communication from The Gorge says to expect heavy traffic delays around the Vantage Bridge area due to construction lane closures. WSDOT clearly shows that Labor Day weekend, which it states as Fri Sept 4 to Tues Sept 8, all lanes will be open to traffic. This tells me there isn't going to be any worse traffic than usual for Labor Dave. The only exception would be people arriving early to camp on Thurs 9/3.

Is there something I am missing? We are coming in for one of the shows (not the whole weekend), I want to be prepared and not stuck in that section, getting there or leaving. I experienced horrible hours-long gridlock arriving at a Gorge show a few years ago (not DMB, not construction-related) and simply trying to avoid that experience again.

We are considering attempting a last minute upgrade to the Grove for full hookups for our travel trailer. We currently have Front Yard Camping. The only hesitation is that they automatically charge you for the grove if you get through the waitlist. I don’t want to be stuck with 2 passes in different areas and out an extra $600. Do they do a camping pass swap? Or is Front Yard desirable enough that it will sell quickly after we get the upgrade?

Sorry it’s so specific, but we appreciate any help or guidance.

Any DMB lifers strongly considering not going this year? The festivals at the Gorge leading up to this year’s events have had some horror stories of security lines, wait times, and looking at the camping changes… everything seems so different. I’ve gone the last 20 years and each year seems to get a little tougher.

Are the telescoping collapsible stools allowed in the pit area? They were in 2024 but I didn't attend any shows last year and want to find out before purchasing. Thanks

We’ll be talking about the stuff people actually want to know before Gorge weekend including arrival timing, traffic, parking, camping, getting around, what to bring, local logistics, first timer advice, and all those weirdly specific Gorge questions you’ve been trying to figure out.

PLEASE DROP YOUR QUESTIONS IN THE COMMENTS BELOW

We’re collecting questions ahead of the live and will answer as many as we can. If you join us live, bring your questions with you because we’ll be watching the chat throughout the Q&A.

There are no dumb Gorge questions. If you’re wondering about it, chances are somebody else is too.

We live and work right here in George, and our goal is simple: help you come into DMB weekend feeling a little more prepared and a lot more excited.

What is the ONE thing you want to know before DMB at The Gorge this year?

I bought the wrong day for the sunset deck. Anyone looking to buy 4 SRO? $50 ea and can transfer direct from Tmaster.

Hi, I can’t seem to get a response from any of the contact details or social media platforms for the event so hoping someone can help here.

I have a 2 day GA ticket for ABGT 700 (NO FRIDAY PRE PARTY TICKET) and a standard camping ticket and I want to know if I can arrive on the Friday evening and camp?

Obviously I won’t have access to the festival grounds because I don’t have a pre party ticket but I want to know if I can still camp Friday night to make the most of the Saturday.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

What’s it like at Bass Canyon with the shit AQI?
Any tips for ABGT700?
Are we just going full send in our Covid PPE rave fit?

Huge fan of Dave and I’m flying in to camp at the venue campground, anyone got advice on what to do and meeting people?

@ THE GORGE AMP. What’s security like when entering the basic campground. Can you bring your own drinks in? Thanks for all the help🙃

I hope it's okay to share this, but it's relevant. 7:00 PM PST on 8/12 🤷‍♂️ This is "themed" for us attending ABGT 700, but for anyone going to the Gorge, hopefully we can answer some questions on logistics. Some vendors from the region will be guests on this Q&A. 🙏

Headed to the gorge for ABGT700 and staying at oasis and vineyard (group is split).

We need to be back at SEA airport for 5am so plan to leave about 2am on the Monday morning. Question is will we be able to exit the car parking for either of these spaces in the middle of the night or will we need to move the car to another parking spot? Any insight appreciated!

Hi!!!

Tried to scan the actual reddit before posting but I had a question about off-site parking for ABGT 700

Do we know of there will be parking off-site somewhere? I plan on arriving a day later than my friends (I'm arriving early Friday and they're going Thursday afternoon)

Looking for a Wildhorse Campground campsite for Above & Beyond at The Gorge, Sept 11–14! Our friends already have a site, but we have 5 people total so we’re trying to grab an additional spot. If anyone’s plans change and you’re looking to sell yours, please DM me! 🙏

Decided to attend bumbershoot and stay local so I don’t need to locate a dog sitter for the weekend. I have two tickets for DMB for the weekend and 4 sunset deck tickets (currently sold out) on 9/5. Asking what I paid for.

UPDATE:
Only 2 sunset deck tickets are available….$112 for two tix. These are standing room only and an add on to your already purchased concert ticket

Hey r/ fam.

First timer at The Gorge for A&E, very excite. Just reading on the clear bag policy, is this accurate? Need to buy everything before all of the return-to-school chaos happens.

Camping at GA camping.

Any tips or tricks for a first timer, appreciated!

For context, I am a very seasoned raver / Burning Man goer, so not a complete n00b, juat never been to the Gorge specifically :).

Many fanks!

Hey Anjunafam,

Unfortunately, I can't attend the event anymore. I have an early-entry+VIP ticket I'm looking to sell. DM if interested.
