how is getting an uber out of this festival or suggest heading out to another town and getting from there? Thinking of coming up from Atlantic City
I’d expect some delays getting out of the immediate area but it’s only a few miles to the parkway if you’re looking to go south/north and also east access to 138 which turns into 195 if you’re going west towards Philly.

Expect delays and also ridiculous prices on ubers after the festival. I tried to get one on Sunday night in 2019 and the rate was probably five times what it normally is. Hunkered down at a bar to wait out the pricing and it only increased. Eventually ended up taking a walk to a neighboring town in order to find a reasonably priced uber.
How's parking at this festival usually? Theres some hotels 30-40 mins away Im looking at
It sucks.
This is the best answer I've seen for any question on here.
Short and sweet.
Sorry… I guess I could have been more helpful with my answer
Asbury Park is small… only 1 square mile. There are no major parking lots on the east side of town near the beach. It’s all on street parking and a lot of that will be unavailable when they fence off the area near the beach for the festival. There is a NJ transit train station in town. I saw the Foo Fighters there for the Bamboozle Festival in 2012 and it was a similar setup. We parked on the street one town to the north and had like a 5 minute walk. But some of the surrounding towns have caught on and they put up temporary no parking signs to discourage it. The west side of Asbury Park is very sketchy in some parts and I don’t know that I would want to be walking back to my car over there late at night. All the towns surrounding Asbury Park are very safe. Best bet might be to find a parking spot in a nearby town as close as you can get and then walk or call for an Uber. Ocean Grove, Belmar, Avon, Ocean Twp, Loch Arbour, Interlaken and Allenhurst are all close and good bets. Neptune near the Asbury border is an exception and is also a little sketchy.
Edit: Bradley Beach is also close and safe.
How is Neptune by the cluster of hotels near the 33 and Garden State Pkwy? Holiday Inn Express, Marriott Residence Inn, Etc.?
It’s fine and a short car ride to the festival. Those hotels are in a business/retail corridor and not in a problem area.
I am staying at the Holiday Inn Express in Neptune - will it be easy to Uber over to the festival from there?

Yes… it’s practically a straight shot from that hotel to Asbury Park. It’s less than a 10 minute car ride on a normal day.

Impulsively bought a ticket without a hotel or airfare and closest I could find was West Long Branch -6 miles away - Hopefully that's a decent enough area.

You’re fine with WLB… especially if you booked a name brand chain.

It’s weird they haven’t confirmed which night. It makes it seem like Saturday night is still a very real possibility otherwise why not just come out and say who plays which night.

It is odd, considering every other festival has confirmed headliners for each night.
That seems most likely but there hasn’t been an announcement.
Pumpkins are doing Riot Fest in Chicago the same weekend. They should be announcing days soon too for headliners. May just be process of elimination if SHN does not announce.

Gotcha.
Maybe they are waiting for all clear COVID wise to confirm the show and then put out the schedule at the same time.

@on2legs lots of out of state people coming in for this one, where should we all meet up and have a drink? I m thinking the non pj day.
So many good places. I’m partial to the upper roof patio at Asbury Festhalle and Biergarten on Lake Ave for hanging out in good weather. It’s outdoors with spectacular views.

Columns in Avon. Good food, good drink and right on the Ocean if you’re looking to be outside Asbury.

Expect delays and also ridiculous prices on ubers after the festival. I tried to get one on Sunday night in 2019 and the rate was probably five times what it normally is. Hunkered down at a bar to wait out the pricing and it only increased. Eventually ended up taking a walk to a neighboring town in order to find a reasonably priced uber.
