    Yup. They leak it a bunch of it out here and there via social media.

    Never been but always wanted to. Is there a preferred hotel everyone stays at?

    The Adelaide Inn is the one most people will mention but it's probably totally booked by now. Most of the hotels close to the venue will be.

    This list is thorough.

    Many people make reservations (including at the Adelaide) that they cancel when unable to land festival tickets.

    are the VIP tickets worth its value?

    Or worth the risk?

    Given that all tickets will sell out fast, is it worth trying for a VIP ticket, only to find out you missed the VIP, and general admission sold out while you were trying.

    Early admission has been worth it for me. I drink just about everything I really want in the first hour and then spend the rest of the fest eating and picking random breweries.

    I'm not even sure I'd say that the regular tickets are the price these days.

    It's not really worth it to me, because a lot of the beers you want to really try aren't on until a specific time, mid-festival.

    Don't waste your time in lines, just drink and be merry.

    My group got 11 tickets, we were only able to get 7 last year so I like the 6am thing.
