I'm thinking about flying out to Alpine on Aug 24th for 3 nights of bliss (Queens of The Stone Age & Rage Against the Machine on Friday, Dave Matthews Band on Sat & Sun).. Where is the closest airport to Alpine?

Also wondering where the nearest towns are to so I can find a hotel to crash at.

Ive never been to Alpine before, and heard nothing but good things!!

    great venue, lots of fresh air. Worth the trip. NOt sure if Chicago or Milwaukee is closer, guessing milwaukee would be best assuming they even have an airport. You can get driving directions on the alpine valley website. I guess rent a car?

    Gen. Mitchell International Airport is closer than O'hare. Alpine Valley is located in East Troy, WI, about 45 min. away from Mitchell Field. O'hare is an hour to an hour and a half or more considering traffic.

    Yes, I would rent a car.

    Maybe this will help:

    The hotels really close to the venue (in Mukwonago, East Troy, etc.) are probably already booked - you might want to try looking in Waukesha, Brookfield, or Milwaukee.

    I'll be at Alpine that whole weekend too :D See you there!
