AAAHHHH the heat of Chicago summer is always amazing. Even if you’re not a summer or heat person, the warm air and lake breeze puts you in the let’s-go-outside-and-do-something mood! As calendars start to fill up, we’re lucky to compare these plans to the amazing experience Spring Awakening Music Festival 2017 provided us. Sure, every experience is unique, but come on! One can’t have a fun night without remembering other great ones… So, here’s a piece of our Spring Awakening experience.
First day was packed! There were lines for the lines to get in lines to get anything! Though it may sound like a negative, it isn’t. It’s a great thing! Nobody wants to go to an empty festival!! The rides looked amazing, we didn’t get a chance to hop on any, and the food smelled even better! A huge high five to SAMF for their stage game this year. Love how, like years past, the Silent Disco is in a bumping cars festival ride set up… LOVE THAT!! The branded tents were pretty epic, and a huge step up from last year! Another high five!! And both the main stages stood tall and grand to host some of the biggest names in electronic music. 3 days of heat, filled with huge talent equals to (at least for us and for those we witness) a successful Spring Awakening Music Festival experience.
The VIP experience is for sure the way to go, if you can invest a few more $$ in your festival experience, do it! With that, I think a club VIP sponsor would take the whole experience to the next level! The elevated areas can have ‘sections’ or bottle service. There can be multiple bars and even servers for those lounging around… you know, boujee VIP experience! The Corona Electric Beach Oasis was so bomb! I will say this, React Presents has a special touch at each of their festivals and that’s this little bobble like stages that teleport you into a different world within their festival world! The oasis was hot, temp and vibe, the music thumped and the party literally felt as if we were on a beach!
