First session is afternoon, second session is evening. Both have a slightly different atmosphere. The afternoon session tends to be people more interested in the beer and enjoying a nice afternoon in the park. I see younger people, older people, couples with kids in strollers, etc. I've always gone to the afternoon session. I've heard that the evening session tends to be more younger people, a party atmosphere, and perhaps a bit more overindulging
I actually went to the evening session last year and will also concur that it has more of a party atmosphere, but I was actually surprised that people were not really overindulging as much as I thought might happen. I was pleasantly surprised by that!
In case anyone was wondering, the online tickets sold out in 2 hours and all the rest of them are gone by now as well. I got mine!
However, a friend of mine spaced out and wasn't able to get one, so if you know of anyone trying to unload a ticket to the evening session, please send me a DM. Thanks!
