Question for everyone.

We originally bought reserved tickets (four of them) but had two additional people jump on late and got GA. Can reserved people sit in GA? Would people there be willing to trade GA for reserved?

I had a similar question and looking through older posts it looks like it is allowed but frowned upon.
I might be willing to take your reserved for GA, i'll shoot you a PM.

Also, keep in mind, anyone that has WILL CALL tickets, like myself, you stop before you park and get tickets at Will Call, which is only availability off of hwy 93 east of venue.  THIS IS THE ONLY PLACE WILL CALL IS LOCATED.

Off hwy 93.  By the number 2.  And expect a wait time if you are showing up when opening band starts or just before.  Then count 10 minutes for parking, then 20 minute hike to line, and then who knows, 10-20 minutes at line.  Just get to venue early if you can!

Is is possible to walk/hike from the area where the early entry line will be located to the will call location?  I am just wondering if folks will want to get in the early entry line before will call opens and how difficult it will be to send someone to pick up tickets from will call once the window opens.  I don't know that we will necessarily want to get in the early entry line that early but I had not considered the possibility that the will call location would be so far from the early entry line location. 

Also, we are considering getting to the park in the morning and just exploring the area earlier in the day before the show on Saturday.  Will we be able to leave our vehicle where we parked when we arrived in the morning?  I'm wondering if they clear the parking lots in the afternoon before the majority of the concert traffic starts arriving. 

Thanks to everyone providing information regarding the RR logistics in this thread.  It is very helpful!

It's possible.  12 minute hike, up and down through the hills.
Route via Google maps.

I do not know how the parking works, always wondered about that

You can do this.  They don't even check your tickets in reserved like most venues, but if you have an issue with someone in your seat it works itself out or you text security.  But if you give up your reserved seats, maybe hook up a fellow board member...  if not, someone else will take your reserved seats if they are open for awhile, so keep it in the family if you can.  Not asking personally as i'm pretty well set for the weekend, but others might be interested!

Re parking: If you can get to a lot at anytime during the day, you can park there and your car can stay there. It's real helpful to use google maps to check out the area and especially the aerial imagery to plan how to get to which lot you want to end up in. I also much prefer the Upper North Lot, and if I wasn't doing the Roll Call early entry from the south lot, that's where I'd go, and line up to go in at that North Trail entrance, as talltyson suggested.

I always enjoy tailgating at Red Rocks, and tons of other people do too. I also enjoy having tickets already in hand so I have them mailed to me, but those tailgaters who have to collect tix at will call usually just drive down to the will call office and drive back up with no trouble.

Thanks for the information!  Does anyone recall what time will call opened for the show last August?

Looking for a pair of GA tickets for Sunday.  If anyone has any extras let me know. 

[PJAMVedder]

If you bought reserved, sit in reserved. Unless you give ga's your reserved for equal displacement. If everyone that bought reserved showed up and wanted GA, there will be problems.

99 days, 16 hours, and 47 minutes

not that i'm keeping count.

(also, great to know that will call people will be able to get tickets for both nights on the first day! thanks for letting us know!)

Looking for a pair of GA tickets for Sunday.  If anyone has any extras let me know. 

I may be getting rid of my Red Rocks tickets for both nights. I have 2 General Admission tickets for both shows (2 GA for Sat. & 2 GA for Sun.). Since we have had more snow today, and therefore another missed day at work, they will be requiring me to stay on the job for at least another day past where I had felt comfortable making the trip (driving) from Kentucky out to Red Rocks. If we have another snow day, I will definitely be selling all 4 tickets. Right now, it's already looking doubtful we'll be able to make the trip. I'll keep you posted, PaulyC7 and anyone else who may be interested.

If you still have those tickets Im looking for 2 more for Saturday.
