Decent festival
by KB2930 on 8/26/16Arena District - ColumbusI only went on Sunday to see Brand New and Garbage. Brand New was fantastic! The bands all did really well with what they were given to perform. The band lineups were good and there was variety. Tickets were a little pricey for a one day pass but there were lots of bands to listen to. Plus I really would have paid the 90 bucks to just see Brand New because they are my favorite band. The layout of the festival was fairly easy to navigate and the screens at the stages were large and easy to watch and read. The location of the festival was a little on the small side but not overly packed or uncomfortable. Maybe as it grows they will move it to bigger venues. I did not however like the intellipay wristband (or whatever it was called) system to pay for merchandise and food/drinks. That's why I'm giving this 3 stars instead of 4 or 5. You had to give them money to use your money to buy their stuff and they didn't accept cash or cards directly. You had to use their wristband system as there was no other options.
