Whoa, nice. Are these the ones in trailers with AC?

I would love to check out TomorrowWorld, but there is no way I can hang for three days. I'd love to be able to check it out for a day/evening. Over 12 hours at a festival and I'm itching to leave.

ID&T totally knows what it is doing and as far as I can tell, the whole thing went incredibly smoothly.

I was skeptical that they could get people to come at the price points they have, but lo and behold they did it, so much respect to them. I also think the price tag keeps the riff-raff out. Authorities always remark how peaceful the crowd is, and few criminals are going to buy a $350 ticket to pick a few pockets.

Even if you hate EDM, you really need to see what Tomorrowworld is all about. The stage is nothing short of utterly spectacular and the scenery is gorgeous. I'm in love with the venue. They do seem to be gouging on food and alcohol more than in years past, but they also have port-o-potties that actually flush, so you can't argue with the level of quality at the joint.
I'd love to agree with ya, but this simply isn't true. The pickpocket issue at TW is a huge deal. I know several people who had their phones stolen last year. My friend got hers stolen this year too--the guy slashed her bag and took it. Check the TW reddit--it's a big topic.

Sorry to hear that! I didn't know that was going on.

Quick question that is off topic: At Tomorrowworld, everywhere I looked, people were recording the show. Some people even had some pretty decent looking rigs going, but I really can't find many videos of the event online. I don't know if they get removed from YouTube when they get posted, but does anyone know where some of the videos are?

Specifically, I'm looking for the introduction for Zedd. Or any other time the volcano stage erupted and went nuts.

South Fulton Parkway to Chattahoochee Hills is absolutely gorgeous ride. Oh yes South Fulton. Will Tommrowworld be back for 2015?

I drive for Uber and met people from Saudi Arabia, Chile, Los Angeles, Phila, San Fran, Denver, Virginia, London, India, and NYC. They all love Atlanta.

I wonder how Delta fared internationally. Did they fly larger aircraft into Atlanta for the event ? Will the event be back in Atlanta next year? It was so mind blowing to see Atlanta be so international, in yes South Fulton.

From personal experience (my brother and his friend flew over from London for an extended weekend for the festival) they loved:

The food
The friendly folks
The weather
(and mainly) The Southern Girls!

I liked the small touches at TW that the organizers made as a nod to the fact that although this is an international festival IT IS taking place here in Atlanta.

I noticed food kiosks for Grindhouse Killer Burgers and Ri-Ra (there were more I'm sure) and on the Sunday there was an ATL stage featuring only home town DJ's.
