Will there be food or drink available at the venue?
We'll have plenty of "state fair" or "festival"-type food concessions. Soda, beer and water will available to purchase.
What do I get with VIP tickets?
From the Ticketmaster page for Lazerfest: "VIP TICKET INCLUDES: Parking, Basic Lunch & Steak Dinner, 5 Free Beverages, Upgraded VIP experience with viewing platforms and separate restrooms." That's it.
Will tickets be sold at the gate?
Yes, assuming that the event is not sold out when the gates open.
How much is parking?
Parking is $2 and is factored in when you purchase your tickets.
If I leave can I get back in?
NO PASS OUTS ALLOWED — Once you're in, you're in!
Can I smoke at LAZERFEST?
No. The Iowa Smokefree Act is in effect at LAZERFEST because it/the Balloon Grounds is considered an "outdoor entertainment venue[s] where the public gathers to witness entertainment events." [link]
Is there handicapped accessibility ?
Yes, there will be elevated platforms/risers at each stage for our handicapped guests.
Is there an age limit?
Nope. No age limit.
What happens if it rains?
The show goes on rain or shine.
Can LAZERFEST sell out?
In a word: Yes.
How can it sell out? Isn't it just a big field? Couldn't you just make it bigger to accommodate more people?
We can expand only the concert grounds to a point before it becomes logistically unfeasible to accommodate two main stages.
How will having two main stages work? Will the bands play at the same time or will they alternate?
The bands will alternate playing between stages with minimal, if any, overlap.
How can I get backstage to meet the bands and get their autographs?
The only way to attend the meet and greets with the bands as LAZERFEST is to win them from LAZER 103.3. Keep listening to Lazer and visiting this site to find out how to win.
