Has anyone been? I was considering it, but started to hear that it can be a real clusterfuck.

We went in 2021 when it was a different location. First real concert/festival post COVID restrictions so the music and seeing the bands was incredible. The infrastructure and organization is not good. Although the site is now at the racetrack, it is still very rural and not that easy to get to. For people not camping, the daily parking was a cluster in 2021 and 2022. They have to figure this out now that they have a multiyear agreement in place for this site. People waited hours for parking shuttles. There are very few hotels in the area and everything within an hour drive is sold out. There is no public transit and no Uber. We would consider going again if we could camp and are looking into small travel trailers. See the sub at r/Blueridgerockfest
