I'm a little confused by some of this lingo...what's this 'opt-in' stuff for roll call members? Are they going to try to sell me an opt-in token to access the presale?  Then tell me that there are more tokens than rooms available and I won't be guaranteed a room?  Someone please tell me my reading comprehensions sucks and I don't understand this correctly.... 

EDIT:  never mind, I think I get it now.  As long as you sign up/buy roll call by the 23rd you'll get a token to use for presale on the 26th. 

Roll Call members can opt-in for One Big Holiday to receive a  unique token to book ONE room at My Morning Jacket One Big Holiday beginning on June 19th until 5pm on Monday, June 23rd. Information containing your specific token date and time will be sent out via email from Cloud 9 Reservations by June 25th. If you have not received an email from Cloud 9 Reservations prior to the Pre-Sale on June 26th, with booking instructions as well as your Cloud 9 username, password & unique token information please contact the Cloud 9 Travel Team at 561-368-8922 or via email at customerservice@mmjonebigholiday.com.

Signing up for Roll Call and/or opting-in to the Pre-Sale does not guarantee you a room at One Big Holiday. 

PLEASE NOTE: There are more tokens than rooms available.  Pre-Sale tokens are non-transferable and can only be redeemed by the token holder during the Pre-Sale on June 26th.

if its the same as last year, and im assuming it is, the token is basically a place holder for the pre-sale.  you are not buying the token.  if you are roll call or went last year, you automatically get a token.  i am guessing they are throwing the other language in there to cover their asses in case it sells out before all the pre-sale tokens are used.  i wouldnt worry about it selling out on the 26th.

The tokens are assigned times to call to make your reservation. I expect the tokens for those that attended last year will have first priority. Then Roll Call member tokens will have priority after returning peeps. The way i read it was once you joined roll call through the link in the email you will have an option to secure a token. I don't think they'll charge for the token. It's really just a place in line.

If this shit sells out at all I'll be surprised. I'm gonna book a room next week either way, but still I can't imagine it selling out after last years turn out
don't rock bottom, just listen just slow down...

What does "Token Redemption" mean?
I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

We are going to this one.  Didn't make last years, but this year its going to be a birthday present for wife and I.

So, we want to do it up right, Are the Stagefront suites nice?  Does that mean you can walk out and be at the state quick or what???
If you don't know for yourself, how could you ever know for me....

just think of the token as a place holder in a ticket purchasing line.  the redemption is the purchasing of the ticket.


Has anyone that went last year received an email from cloud 9 with their token?  i thought it said we would receive those today.

Just means calling at your assigned time to book your room. Tokens are just a spot in line to make your reservation. It's something like 4 or 5 tokens for every 15 minutes. So you may get 10:15am that day while I get 12:30pm. And since they have a handful of people to take phone calls, I believe a handful of people will get the same times. They've done this for the last couple years for panic and they did not sell out with tokens, but have sold out the events.

anyone know how the deluxe gold early bird thing works?  Is that only if you pay in full?  or is it the price if you register the first day or so?

Did anyone go by themselves last year? Is there any way for people to split rooms or do I just need to front the 2.5k?

We were there last year as a pre-wedding-honeymoon-gift couple (I shit you not, Golden just came on on random itunes shuffle as I write ths... that was the warmup song the boys did on day 1 in the middle of the day... one of the best moments) and said we were glad to go to the first one expecting it might be years before we get to come back... but holy fuck, shit, balls-on-fire do I want to go again!

Last year we stayed three extra days in all and it still went WAY TOO FUCKING FAST! One recommendation to anyone new going... bust your ass to get extra days... do whatever it takes! Trust me!


Can't see how we'll be able to swing going back-to-backs... but how awesome would it be to watch the Superbowl and then walk further down shore to an amazing MMJ experience?


I'll never say never... but this is going to take some magic to pull off... but gotta try!

Good Luck to all the re-ups and first-timers!

did you guys stay extra days at the hard rock?  We fully intend to stay extra days, but have no intention to spend them there.  Wife and I honeymoon'd in the area and love it, will probably head down for a few days in Tulum after OBH.

Werljam,

Yes they had a system last year for pairing singles up. "We" didnt use it and I didnt speak with anyone who did, but trust me do whatever it takes to defray costs to get there its well worth it....

Had a concert courtyard room - highly recommend it, because you can literally watch the stage from your room, or....if you've been drinking a lot, you are literally steps away from your personal toilet.  :beer:  It's also pretty much the center of the entire resort, though most of the activity happens in the Heaven side, which is really just a building or two over.

For us, we went down early and stayed at this place called Nueva Vida de Ramiro in Tulum. The place was incredible. We had duplex cabana that was about 200 feet from the beach. Prices varied, but were reasonable. They have some great restaurants in Tulum.

Tulum is amazing! Can't wait to go back.

Want to do this one - we did Coba last time, it was nice too, but want something different this year.  Either this or snorkeling.

So which package is this room?  The suite or what?

Keep in mind though, that the courtyard is football field size... The rooms in the back half are too far away from the stage to see anything, and there is no guarantee that your room will be close.
