Music Festival Bar Tab Over a Quarter Million Dollars?
If you were thirsty at this concert, you better have brought multiple credit cards... or a loan.
The EDC Music Festival at the Las Vegas Speedway was a three day festival that has social media gawking at the VIP drink prices.
Also if you wanted to go the "cheap" route, a six pack of Bud Light was $140 according to those in attendance.
What about just some H2O? A six pack of Smartwater was $90.
A bucket of Redbull was $75. In other words, nothing was "cheap" at the show.
It should be mentioned that the price list above was for the VIP area called the EDC SkyDeck — there is no price listed for these packages, and you must fill out a form to express interest. Sounds expensive...
As you can imagine the sky high prices had some attendees running up some massive tabs. One customer posted their tab on X asking how much should the tip be on... 277 THOUSAND dollars. Yes, that is $277,000 for drinks!
I don't know what is worse, the $20,848 admin fee or the extra line for a tip after the service charge of $46,329 was already included!
In case you were wondering, we did the math. For $277,000 you could afford 23,494 12 packs of Natural Light at $11.79 each.
Which means you could be taking home 281,928 beers and still have money left over. Even if you wanted to drink six beers a day you would have enough Natty Light to last you until the year 2153.
I will let you decide what the proper choice is there.
