I'm actually not a big fan of live shows, especially festivals but this was perfect. It wasn't super huge but then the lineup was great. We mainly went for Young the giant and it was perfect. I was worried about the stages being so close together but there wasn't a negative impact. Orlando should continue to host this festival! And please even with popularity don't succumb to big obnoxious masses.
Despite cold, wet conditions late in the evening, this was a great event with top notch performers. We bought VIP area passes and were extremely disappointed with how far to the side the area was. Not worth the extra money.
This event was great and all of the artists that I got to see performed a,azimgly well. I hope there is a Big O next year!
The Big Orlando was a huge success! My girlfriend and I went and it was nothing short of a great day of listening to a list of awesome bands performing live! We got there pretty early to get very close to the front of the big stage, we were so close which made the whole experience that much better. The crowd really showed up to support their favorite bands and everybody seemed to really have a great time! I will definitely be going back next year!!
Wezer was the best.. We arrived early in the day with empty stomachs expecting to eat something good since the "food trucks" were advertised. Good trucks were all a joke and over priced. Everything was french fries chicken strips and beer. One bbq food truck that was $16 for fries and sandwich. Funnel cake made us both sick. Couldn't sleep all night with vomit. Overall the the bands were great. The sound on the main stage seemed to get better after every band. Sound on small stage was terrible! We left after Weezer Bc of the rain. "VIP" looked like a total rip off. People were jumping the fence
Timing was off. Doors were at 11:30 but no band started for some time after that. There was not enough food, and I got food poisoning from undercooked chicken kabab. It was FREEZING and there was not a warm beverage to be found...I would've taken a cup of hot water that's how miserable the weather was. That being said I'm really happy we had SOME kind of festival other than warped tour in Orlando! I think if the staff plan better and promote better next year could be much much better! Dirty heads, Weezer, and FOB were incredible!!!
Overall the festival was good. Good crowd, easy access to bathrooms and food/drinks. Sound was good, bands were great. Will attend again if the band selection is good for what I like. I did not stay for Weezer or Fall Out Boy. Don't care for either of those bands.
I enjoyed the show but didn't like the venue. VIP was far from the normal VIP I'm used to. No lighting set up for each stage.
