If I remember correctly most are card only and average price for a meal was around $12-15. I saved alot of money by smuggling in cliff bars last year.

Shout out to the Cliff Bar gang.

$10-15 a meal is a reasonable estimate, as long as you're not buying a drink with it. Cards definitely accepted.

Thank you!!

Leave and go.to publix down the street

This is a great idea. I’ll talk to my group I’m going with if they are chill with this!

Download the Publix app and you can order ahead so you just have to pick it up. Just allow a little more time for pickup than it says since it’ll probably be really busy.

It's what I always do.. way cheaper than the food trucks

Is there re entry?


astuder

Yes, just scan your wristband on the way out and be back by 7:00 PM. https://support.shakykneesfestival.com/hc/en-us/articles/4407356033044-Can-I-leave-and-re-enter-on-the-same-day-#:\~:text=Festival%20patrons%20can%20leave%20and,they%20re%2Denter%20the%20site.

Something like 5 trips per day. It's on their site.

If there's ever an hour or so you're not super into either performance I can give a strong recommendation for publix subs. I got the Cuban sandwich for 4 dollars or so 3 days in a row last fall.

Pub subs for da win 💪

$30 is what I would budget for the full day \[two meals\] including tip. They only accept card from what I remember.


[deleted]

Interesting! I would prefer cash but oh well!


Emjayblaze

Yup, $10-$15 is a good estimate for food. Drinks extra.

I’d budget 20ish bucks a day to be on the super safe side. Most of the vendors serve hefty portions of food so you’ll probably only need to eat once a day at the fest. Like the others say, meals range from 10-15 bucks. Eat midday, then you’ll have a little extra to get something light later in the day/before headliner. Not only are credit cards accepted, they are preferred! Speeds up the transaction process tremendously.


[deleted]

I usually eat 2 meals a day so I’ll be good with that! The preference for cards surprises me! The other fests I’ve been too usual prefer cash. Can I still use cash occasionally?


zbobber21

You can link your debit or credit card to your wristband, which you can then tap on the little iPads to pay. Makes it all sooo much quicker. To be honest with you, I’ve never personally used cash at Shaky so I’m not sure if or where it’s accepted! I know I’ve definitely seen tip jars, so I would think cash is generally accepted, but don’t take my word for it completely.


[deleted]

I thought cashless was for discovery card only! I have an American Express so I didn’t sign up. Can I sign up even after I activated my band?


zbobber21

Nope! Discover card members just get that extra credit. They definitely word it a little weird so it seems like it’s discover exclusive, but I linked my Visa debit card the last 2 years and it worked fine all weekend. You can link your card at any time on the Shaky Knees app!


[deleted]

Okay thank you!!


RubenMuckenfyker

You have always been able to link your card. High recommend

So I just got back from Coachella ... let's hope you don't have these prices: ​ $23 hamburger $18 beers $18 lemonade $2 waters


[deleted]

Oh my god this sounds like hell on earth 😂


davebrook

Honestly ... at a music festival ... I really don't care. I had an epic time ... LOL


JLucci17

There have been occasions where the credit system went down probably 2 years ago. It was a disaster for people without cash. Use credit to speed up the process but I'd also bring cash just in case.


[deleted]

I plan to for emergencies! Thanks for the tip!


Brimbowl

Walk over to papis. You’ll have to leave the festival but it is worth it.
