Here are some tips for first…read moretimers: We visited on their first day which was Friday, they were scheduled to open at 2:30 and we got there around 2:20pm. Got great parking in Lot B. Being there early was key because lines got long. There are plenty of food trucks, yummy ones at that. Plenty of port-o-potties although the toilet tissue did run out half way through. We did not bring our own chairs. Most people do. However if you go early enough you can hang out in the beer & wine festival tent, where there are plenty of tables & chairs. We went for the tethered balloon ride and we were able to line up at 5pm. So the only confusion is whether the balloon rides are actually going to happen or not. The pilots meet and decide if the weather is cooperating or not. When we tried to line up at 5pm we were advised that no one knew if the balloons were going to go up and that they would know by 5:30. Thank God we didn't leave the line, because 5 minutes later they started selling tickets and we were the 3rd group that went up and there were about 100 ppl on line behind us. Other than that, the festival went off without a hitch. I even rode on a mechanical bull!!! Getting in and out of the parking lot was slightly challenging as there is only one way in and out, but the people working the lot were on top of it and even though we waited for a few to get out because people were still arriving after 6pm we still enjoyed the whole experience.

I've been to numerous inaugural music festivals, with varying degrees of success. This was the…read morefirst inaugural, 1-day festival that I had been to, which lets face it- has got to be much easier to pull off than a 3-day. Plus, the festival was at a regional airport, so there wasn't really traffic/city/infrastructure issues to deal with either. But a success nonetheless... Obviously, the main draw for any music festival is the music. SoS Fest was put on by Radio Woodstock (same crew that puts on Mountain Jam), to celebrate their 35th year, so you'd expect a similar genre'd festival- and that is to say Rock/Southern Rock/Folk. 2015 was headlined by The Avett Brothers, with a bill that also included Hot Tuna, and Chris Robinson Brotherhood, to name a few. For me, it was all about the Avett Brothers and the $55 ticket was worth seeing them (2.5 hour set) alone. The sound here was great. There was a quarantined off area of GA for people to put their chairs/blankets, then the rest was standing room. It was super easy to get close for the headliner, as I think a lot of families left by then (children 10 and under were free). I had never been so close to the stage for Avett Brothers before, and it was kind of surreal. There were ample porto-potties. Food was supplied by local Hudson Valley vendors, and was pretty good. There were also local artisans selling goods throughout the festival as well as activities for children. There were a fair amount of kids running about (almost enough to be a buzzkill) as a lot of parents neglected to keep their children in check. All in all, I really enjoyed this festival, but in all honesty, it was really just an Avett Brothers concert for me; the other acts were great, but it was just a glorified concert IMO. Either way, if they have Avett on the bill next year, I'll surely make the 2+ hour trek from NYC once again.

At each end is entertainment, one end had a kid zone with pony rides and bouncy houses, the other end had a guy giving helicopter rides. The helicopter was annoying at times, since it buzzed the festival, but otherwise not too bad. no idea how much it cost, we were there for the cupcakes. In the middle was a stage with pretty cool bands, and some food trucks. Prices were ok, but the LINES WERE WAY TOO LONG because there were only 3 or 4 trucks. We had BBQ from Handsome Devil BBQ. Pretty decent food, pulled pork and ribs were authentic bbq. they also had other stuff including mac and cheese and chicken fingers which hit the spot. Odd thing was that you could only buy drinks from one vendor, so you had to wait on multiple lines. They had portajohns with hand washing stations outside, and they were all kept pretty clean. and there were tons of garbage cans everywhere, so you were never at a loss for one. There were lot's of tasty cupcakes from a ton of vendors. More than we could sample. the ones we tried were all good, but after a while, even for a guy with a sweet tooth, its all a bit too much. The cupcakes were pricey - $3 each. The parking was a little hectic, and the roads were dusty, so when cars went by it raised this huge cloud of dust, but other than that it was a great day.

So much fun! Cupcakes are awesome! Great day with lots of vendors! Highly recommend it!read more
