Forecast for the New Year�s Eve� lots of fun and an unusually warm night. GIANT MAXIMUS features 3 climate-controlled Big Tops with a combined capacity of 8500 and an outdoor courtyard (1500 capacity) featuring the MONSTER Midway with a full carnival, acrobatics and psychedelic circus antics!

Hungry? There are Food Concessionaires serving a variety of New Year�s Eats from the middle of the MONSTER MIDWAY in the center of the event.

Just in case you missed it, the MONSTER MIDWAY, presented by Monster Energy, is the courtyard created in the middle of the three Big Tops and features massive bars, carnival rides, acrobats, stilt-walkers, roaming entertainers, �games of chance� booths (complete with big stuffed animal prizes), men�s and women�s executive trailer restrooms and, of course, the very Giant Ferris Wheel!

I don't know either. I'll try to find out and post it. I'm having trouble getting a hold of anyone today. No different from any other year. Crazy times. When you set up a massive party venue from scratch it makes for a crazy 48 hours.
I will say to not be surprised if it isn't cheap. Afterhours never are and especially New Year's Day. Even Forbidden gets up to $50. There might be a discount with a Maximus tix, but let me check on it first.

I can't see it being anywhere hear that much. but you'll know soon enough - since Insomniac is also doing the party i'd guess they will probably have discount invites at TAO too.
