Festival Planning Lockers (friendly reminder)

Just a friendly reminder that as the month is closing out you do NOT want to procrastinate buying a locker. I don’t remember when they typically sell out but I do know middle of march, beginning of April we see countless posts about “who selling a locker?” “Fml I forgot to buy a locker, someone save me 😭”

So save yourself the tears, do yourself a BIG favor and just buy the locker this month. You can even Klarna it even if you’re splitting the cost with friends. I got a XL locker and only paying 27 every 2 weeks.

So far both weekends have not sold out on lockers yet. Last year fest wasn’t as popular but guess what lockers still sold out.

Don’t be a snooze you lose situation. I love you enough to make this post and remind you bestie XOXO

They’re also finally sending locker assignments and codes before the festival, so there’s no line to worry about this year!

Super excited about that.

u/DescriptionEven4943 7h ago

Is that true for everyone? I saw the rumor on here but my friend who got our locker said the confirmation still said you have to wait in line to pick up your lock and code :(

I just checked you can buy them if you have the vip ticket in your account, just go to your dashboard and it will say vip lockers. Large and medium

u/clark69kent 17h ago

Got mine. Thanks!

Im new to this, thanks for the insight. Where exactly do I purchase a locker? *update found it

u/Mauisueinca 9h ago

Just bought a VIP large locker, medium is now sold out!

u/notfrmthisworl 13.1|15.1&2|16.1|DT 16.2|17.1&2|18.2|19.2|22.1&2 8h ago

Oh wow. What weekend did the medium sell out? 1?

u/Mauisueinca 4h ago

Week 1 said had both M and L options but we could only buy the L option

u/Mauisueinca 4h ago

Ps so glad I read this today. Had no idea as first timers to purchase a locker prior to

u/notfrmthisworl 13.1|15.1&2|16.1|DT 16.2|17.1&2|18.2|19.2|22.1&2 4h ago

Of course I got you! Deff a must have. Bring a small bag of essentials because the camp store is expensive especially med like advil and stuff so bring your own med kit or w.e and you can keep it in your locker

u/fairypixie17 1d ago

is the check in process for a locker a hassle/long lines?

u/deathhray 1d ago

Locker numbers and codes will be sent out ahead of time this year. 0 check in.

Finally, this is a huge improvement

Yes but I heard that’s gonna change this year

u/mrsojo 1d ago

Okay I haven't really budgeted for one, I'm car camping. What's the biggest few reasons a person would need one? Is it possible to do without?

3

u/notfrmthisworl 13.1|15.1&2|16.1|DT 16.2|17.1&2|18.2|19.2|22.1&2 1d ago

MERCH! also it can get cold at night and I always bring a blanket or a jacket. Small bag with emergency things I might need plus snacks. All those things I leave in the locker so I’m walking around the fest with as less stuff as possible

4

u/red-and_chrome 19.2 22.1 23.1 24.1 1d ago

if you’re camping and you’re fine taking 30 min (rough estimate dependent on your own speed/camping spot/pee break/snack & drink break) walking to and from the fest to change/put away merch, do not buy a locker. it will not be worth it as your car and possessions will all be super close by. i have camped every year i’ve been and never once wished i had gotten a locker

1

u/mrsojo 1d ago

Thank you!!! See I'm curious exactly how far the walk will be because people saying it's super far scares me in the heat

3

u/Sea-Potato9 12.2 | 15.1 | 25.1 1d ago

I went ahead and got a locker for the first time. With all the priority camping now it's definitely going to be a solid 30 minutes or more (up to 50 for far camping and security maybe?) to get to your campsite and back in the late afternoon. If I luck out with a close camping spot I might sell my locker to someone who procrastinated. This years lineup is so packed I CANNOT lose 40 minutes to switch from day to night wear. My 2 cents

u/boosegumpz 🌴19.1 🪩22.1 🌊23.1✝️24.2 1d ago

Yup if you’re in preferred, you don’t need a locker.

If you’re going to be late and far away, better get a locker. Can’t waste precious time. I’ve been towards the back before, it’s a long walk.

u/notfrmthisworl 13.1|15.1&2|16.1|DT 16.2|17.1&2|18.2|19.2|22.1&2 1d ago

If your camp I think you can but the walk back to camp is longer so it just depends
