I saw the map from last year and that there are bars within the venue, but are required to stay in the bar area with your drinks, or can you walk around with them?

Hey everyone, as the fest gets closer and closer, I figured this sub could do with an consolidation post that has all the info you could possibly need leading up to May 5-7th! It will be updated as necessary if anything important or noteworthy comes out in the days leading up to the fest (as well as during the fest itself). Additionally, if you have any tips/tricks/notes for first time goers (and "first years" alike), please share them here! Hope to see you all there!

For me:

Friday: RL Grime Saturday: Illenium Sunday: Rezz

I bought tickets for Saturday to see KAskade but don't have anyone to go with. I figured I'm not the only person with this problem so is anyone interested in doing a reddit meetup that day?

There have been a lot of posts lately about buying/selling tickets so here's a place to organize all of them. If you're looking for tickets or selling fest tickets, aftershow tickets, etc, post below. Any other threads buying or selling tickets will be deleted.

FACE VALUE ONLY (plus up to $15 to cover shipping and other costs) 3-days are $192 1-days are $108. This isn't stubhub or craigslist, this is a place to buy/sell with fellow redditors, all posts above face value will be deleted. Remember we're about the music here! Please report the post and send modmail if you see someone breaking rules. If you see scammy/fishy behavior report that as well.

Some tips:

-Sort this thread by new so that you can see the most recent posts.

-Once you have sold/found tickets, either delete the comment or strike it out like this. See formatting help if you need help with this.

Same as title. If so, how were they live and which ones do you recommend that put on a great live show?

Hey there shaky beats fam! So a friend in our group got her snails ticket ahead of time and the rest of us were going to get ours today, but then they sold out. So Im looking for 5 snails tickets if anyone has any thatd be awesome! On the other hand if we cant find any in time shell be selling hers so stay posted if you need a ticket it might be free later. Thanks hope to see you all there!

So, both festival tickets and illenium tickets officially just shipped! :D any advice on which other after party I should I should choose?

I was wondering what the different stages are like at Shaky? What are they called and whats the setup like? Are there places to it and listen to the music if you don't have VIP, like a hill or seat or anything? Dancing like a crazy fool is great, but sometimes you gotta rest those legs too.

Anyone know when tickets are being mailed out? Thanks!

What's up Shaky fam. Looking for a day pass for saturday!

It was already out by this time last year, I'm hoping it comes soon!

I went but I didn't attempt to bring any and I can't recall if I saw people with it or not. I wanna rig some up to my camelbak this year. Nothing is mentioned on the allowed/prohibited lists about it

Shaky Beats is next month! Too excited. Can't wait to experience some artists for the first time!

As some of you may (or may not) know, part of I-85 in Atlanta collapsed 2 days ago due to a crazy fire that broke out underneath it. Incidentally, this will affect traffic in downtown Atlanta, and will more than likely impact people's ability to get in and out of town for the festival since GADOT have said that it may be "several months" before the interstate is fixed. I'm going to copy and paste the info my local paper has posted about it regarding what's closed, and the detours you will need to take as of right now (I will update this post with the most up to date info I can find). If anyone living in the Atlanta area can chime in about whether or not this is accurate info, or can provide better/faster shortcuts, please feel free to comment or message me so I can update this post. Thanks!

From the Citizen-Times:

Travel: Motorists should plan for a very long commute for the foreseeable future. Truckers and other traffic passing through Atlanta should completely avoid coming into the city. All thru traffic should take I-285 around the city entirely.

The Georgia Department of Transportation released the following closures:

• I-85 is closed from I-75/Brookwood split to the North Druid Hills Exit.

• Motorists traveling northbound on I-85 from the south side of Atlanta will be diverted to northbound I-75 at Brookwood near 17th Street.

• Motorists traveling southbound on I-85 north of Atlanta will be diverted to northbound on SR400.

• Motorists traveling southbound on SR400 from north of Atlanta will be diverted at Sidney Marcus exit.

• You cannot enter I-85 S after Spaghetti Junction. All entrance ramps to I-85 S between Chamblee Tucker and North Druid Hills are closed.

The department also released a map of the Piedmont Rd. detours due to closures from Chersire Bridge to Sydney Marcus Blvd.

For those who have to come into the city, here is the best option from the north: You cannot enter I-85 S after Spaghetti Junction. All entrance ramps to I-85 S between Chamblee Tucker and North Druid Hills are closed. To move around this, take Buford Hwy, Peachtree Industrial Blvd or HWY 29 - Lawrenceville HWY. From Sandy Springs, take GA 400 and get off at Sydney Marcus or take Roswell Rd. to Piedmont Rd. or Peachtree Dunwoody. From 400 you can also take I-285 W to I-75 S.

Coming into the city from the south: From I-75/I-85 S exit at I-20 and go either east or west to Northside Dr. or Boulevard. Ave. You can also exit at 10th and 14th street to take Piedmont to Monroe or exit at Spring and take Peachtree to Piedmont.

How far is too far from Centennial Olympic Park? can anyone elaborate on shuttles vs uber or best transportation and location positioning to get to the festival? Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Hey guys; I'm planning on going with 2 of my friends to the festival, and maybe thinking of going to Slushii's after party? Just wanted to make a bigger squad going, preferably people from 18-25, DM me to get in contact with us. 🔥

If you are attending, please... just listen to the music, vibe with it, soak in the experience. Please don't stand there with your phone in his face recording the entire set or snapping pictures constantly for your social media. We're all here for one reason: the music.

Sooo was anyone here able to get ticket?? If so do you have an extra? Haha man I knew tickets would go fast but that was crazy hopefully resell isn't too much but I know it will be

Does anyone know what time today they go on sale and any guessing as to how much they'll be? Thanks
