STARSCAPE : THE PARTY'S ON!
Get ready everybody,
The party of the year is finally here!
Despite the saber rattling of Hurricane Isabelle: The flooding, the destruction, the power outages, etc...
It's Starscape time!
There was one unfortunate casualty to our beloved Ft Armistead Park, which is that the pier is no more. It was destroyed by the storm. The bright side is that at least it wasn't structurally damaged unbeknown to us, only to collapse during the party, which obviously would have been the biggest disaster. So, let's have a moment of silence for the loss of a nice feature of the event, and move on.
To accommodate the situation, the Sonic Soul, DC Skillz, and Hip hop areas will all now be along the beach. The GSpot Art Gallery area is now going to be in the upper lots near the main tents. All other facets of the events remain unchanged.
If you've been to Starscape before, you know what a spectacular event this is going to be. The simple gathering of 5000+ people, all night at this wonderful venue is a site in and of itself. Add 5 areas of music, an art gallery area, numerous performance troops, and you have what has 3 times been voted the Best One Off in the country!
Here are some things to consider for this year's event:
- Temperature : It's going to be about 60 degrees, dress accordingly.
- Beer : We are going to offer beer for sale to those over 21. It's NOT in a beer garden, you can walk with it anywhere in the event! There will be Yuengling, Bud, and Stella. Prices will be $4 for domestic, $5 for import, 16 oz cups. There MAY be Red Bull & Vodka for sale, we're working on that.
- Parking : As we have done in the past, the immediate field in front of the gate will for people who will stay the duration of the event, as we will pack cars in. Do not pull down to this part of the lot if you do not want your car blocked. Follow all instructions from parking staff.
Arriving early gets you the best parking and the quickest entry into the event.
- Tickets : At this point there are still tickets left, but they sell extremely fast towards the end of the week. It is best to get your ticket in advance. If your local outlet sells out, that DOES NOT mean the event has sold out. We will make another announcement via email on Friday regarding advance tickets and tickets at the gate. We do reserve the right to raise the admission slightly for gate tickets, to deal with increased staffing for that procedure.
- Lineup Times : We will post the lineup times at www.starscapebaltimore.com by Friday.
- FAQ's : Or rather, the answers to them.
You may bring cameras, both still and video.
You may NOT bring your own alcohol. Because the event has a liquor license, that prohibits people from bringing their own.
There was a mixup with the agent over the Icey booking, Green Velvet replaced him.
There will be quite a few different food vendors, selling vegetarian, carnivorous and snack items.
We cannot allow tents to be setup at the event. Tents you may have seen setup in previous years were from staff members who had been setting up for days.
You cannot bring animals to the event, insurance does not allow it.
Those are the basics. We hope to see you at Starscape this Saturday!
