Went over early and stayed at Cave B. Super easy access, and made for a great time. I'm not a huge country fan, but the music was great and everyone seemed to be having a blast. $16 beers were a little much, but they were cold and tasty. We got the VIP tickets, and the extra sitting areas were fun. My wife really liked the air-conditioned bathrooms. See you next year. Nick
My first and not last time here the place is amazing there's truly no words to describe it i can't wait to go back!
Overall great time. Speakers should have been WAY louder for those who say at the top of the grass. Sound was mumbled. Definitely need to turn it up next year!
Really enjoyed Blake Shelton and Brad Paisley, did not know very many songs by Brantley Gilbert.
Watershed is always a good time. This year it wasn’t extremely hot out. Worst part about it is a lot of people are inconsiderate and just throw trash wherever and make a mess out of the place.
Of course, you can’t beat the view of the gorge. The sunset just to the left of the main stage and over the river is amazing. Music was good, artists selection was good too. Sounds system quality depends on who is performing. We paid about $300 more per ticket for VIP seats over general admission. We thought it was a waste of money. The VIP areas don’t have enough seats for even a fraction of VIP tickeholders. Getting into VIP areas isn’t just show your armband either- a line forms every time because you have to show ID to one guy while another scans your wrist band... Once you’re in the VIP section, they don’t let you leave with even a plastic glass of water. You can’t buy food in the VIP section either. Only a few seats and once someone is able to secure a seat, they never move! We thought that at least one benefit would be the air conditioned bathrooms in VIP areas... these were much better than port-a-potties however they wouldn’t let us into this area after the music stopped at the end of the night. It was ridiculous! You can’t fit all VIP fans into the area for the show and then you don’t let anyone into the bathrooms afterwards?!? They should have kept this open for at least 30 minutes after the show. Bad service in our opinion. We won’t be coming back to this festival... too many drunk stupid people way too early in the day. Other festivals/concerts we have gone to, we have been able to avoid that side of it by buying premier or VIP tickets but at watershed, you don’t get separated or treated like a VIP by spending more.
Great venue and great music. Our 4th one and we plan to go each year.
The artists were great! The sound was suspect, especially for Clint Black & Brantley Gilbert. I would think those running the sound board would be able to figure this out. Not sure if this person changes with each artist or if it is one person running the show, but there were issues here. Now to the camping... I understand it is a party atmosphere, but you state in the "rules" that quite time is from 2am to 8am. If that is what your are stating, this needs to be enforced.
Can’t believe I have to wait another whole year for Watershed 2019!
Watershed 2018 was an excellent event that had great headliners and supporting cast.
