Inked Entertainment has also been working with the Peoria Area Convention and Visitors Bureau to set up discounted hotel rooms at many area hotels for concert goers. A link to the reservation system will be located on the festival website: www.TailgateNtallboys.com (under the travel section) when that becomes available. Sign-up for the Tailgate N’ Tallboys Newsletter/Eblast list to receive updates on that.
In addition to the hotel rooms, Tailgate N’ Tallboys has just secured a new camping location for the 2019 June weekend, at the Heart of Illinois Fairgrounds. Full hookup and primitive spots for campers and tents will be available. This will include shuttle service to and from the festival throughout the day. Details are still being worked out. Once available, camping passes will be available at www.TailgateNtallboys.com. Sign-up for the Tailgate N’ Tallboys Newsletter/Eblast list to receive updates on that.
There will be multiple new amenities and logistical changes in 2019. The stage will now be south facing with the stage facing bridge on what was the backend of Festival Park (venue). This allows for more room for those with chairs and allows for the growing attendance that the festival has experienced over the past few years. The VIP section will have a full-service bar, air-conditioned restrooms and more amenities added later.
The new NASH Pass will be available for all three weekends. Included in this pass is secure gated parking, a pre-show reception at Cumulus Studios (with drinks and food), weekend VIP Passes, entry through a special VIP entrance that is close to parking and leads right into the VIP section.
The 6 Pack Pass will once again be available for the festival. This allows purchaser entry into all dates of the series for a deeply discounted price.
6 Pack Passes, June Weekend Passes, July Weekend Passes, September Single Day Passes go on sale November 6, 2018 at 10AM and will be available at discounted prices until November 27, 2018 at 10AM, at which time prices will increase.
