Napa BottleRock: Festivus for the rest of us

Activity: BottleRock concert in Napa Valley

Rating: 4.5 of 5 stars

Website: http://www.bottlerocknapavalley.com/

Cost: ~ $100 per day GA and $49 for shuttle to SF and back roundtrip

Details: This is a concert is great for the late 20s-40s crowd. The crowd is more relaxed than the larger, famous festivals (Coachella, Governors Ball, etc.) and there is plenty of space to walk around without feeling constantly pushed/shoved. The stages are very short walk, but far enough that the music does not easily transfer to another stage.

The food stands are delicious, but the lines are quite long. The drinks include nice wines (clearly, based on the location in the Napa region), some craft beers, and some mainstream beers. 

Concert ends around 10pm including the silent disco most likely because it is in a residential area. Parking I heard was quite a problem so most people commute back to the city or stay in a nearby hotel for the night such as Sonoma.
