    Do VIP tix include a shuttle pass? I just happened to notice that it is included on the VIP Defender tix but wasn't sure if that applied to ALL VIP?



    Says it does....

    it had been so long since I bought tickets I didn't even think about it...when the shuttle passes went live I grabbed it. 

    I guess I'll be selling it :)

    I decided this morning that I’m going to the Sunday show. Will be my first time at Ohana since I got Covid a few days before the 2021 shows.

    If I end up buying a ticket on the TM Exchange how does that work with wristbands? Also, no shuttle passes available…I’ll be renting a car driving up from San Diego airport….what do I do?

    1) remember that when you see the giant breasts along I-5, you're almost there (iykyk)

    2) ask Gern or me for shuttle passes, since it looks like we both ordered passes, having forgotten that they were part of the VIP price.

    Does anyone know what the chances are of getting off the parking pass waitlist?

    PS: If anyone here is selling their 3-day parking pass, I'm interested.

    There will be resellers on site, I wouldn't stress.  People drop the last show on a 3-day pass all the time, and there will be people trolling the crowds after each show buying bands and then reselling them the next night.
    hmm... I imagine I will have to be open to go watch a movie on the sunday...

    "The San Clemente trolley connects you to Dana Point, which then connects to the other OC beach towns. And there’s also a bike path that goes all the way to Dana Point. " So there is a bike path to the festival (dana point)... then I should be able to run/walk back on that path then... no running next to a SERIAL KILLER TRUCK DRIVER EVERYONE ELSE DRIVES SUVs highway

    Iv'e been to everyone of them. Have driven and parked, then walked. Have camped my motor home in the campground a few times. Have stayed in hotels and the last couple Airbnb. All of them we walked. Everything is relatively close if you are able to walk a mile or so. I also know they have shuttles from some of the further away hotels. But its literally on the coast. So everything is right there. Don't feel intimidated if your from out of town. Its easy!!!
    Where's a good place to park?  I've been to Dana Point for Ohana (parked at high school and shuttled), and during the offseason, but am not certain what to expect with off-site parking and what might be available.  I'd prefer that, although the hill out is a bit of a climb!
    There's some neighborhood parking I've used all 4 years I've gone that's about 15 minutes away. Usually plenty of spaces. Be warned it's mostly uphill on the way out of the festival. 
    Any suggestion on neighborhoods good for parking?

    The nearest fire is about 30 miles away and is 62% contained.

    I actually sold the pass but thanks. 

    Just a bit ago I got an email that my parking pass went through. I had been waitlisted...so my VIP shuttle pass is once again useless but at least I'm covered.

    Is there any way to get a ticket to sunday? Or will I just have to go to the festival on sunday and hope there is a chance someone is standing there selling a ticket outside? Or is it a lost cause...

    Keep an eye out the nights before, you'll run into people asking to buy extra bands while you're walking in and leaving. Those are the people to ask. 

    Otherwise, Resale options will surely open soon, keep an eye on the ticketing link @ ohanafest.com. Trouble there is getting tix in time before you leave. There might be options like an Amazon hub locker, maybe? 

    I can't speak to the safety of LBC, but if you're thinking of walking any further than a couple of miles in the area, you'll probably have a bad time. Not for safety reasons (around Dana point, anyway), it's just not that walkable.
