Lost Lands Reviews

The entry process was a mess. The security line dragged on forever, and it felt like nobody really had a handle on keeping things moving. Not the end of the world, but definitely something they need to sort out.

The food and drinks were disappointing. We stood in the queue for ages, and after all that waiting, the drinks were overpriced, the portions were tiny, and there were barely any decent options to choose from. Definitely not something I’d rush back for...

Dealing with the staff was a pain from start to finish. I asked a couple of basic questions and got treated like I was bothering these miserable gatekeeping clowns. Customer service before the festival wasn’t any better either, slow replies, vague answers, and no actual help. For the amount of money people spend, you’d expect at least a little respect. I left feeling annoyed and completely let down.

I went in expecting this big, unforgettable lineup moment, but it felt like the excitement never showed up. I kept waiting for a major name or something that would really pull me in, and instead it just felt repetitive and dull. By the end, I was definitely feeling like it wasn’t worth it for me this year

I’ll give them credit where it’s due, the stage design looked absolutely wild this year. The dinos, lights, and visuals made everything feel massive, which was awesome. Of course, once the crowd got packed in, some of the screens were basically there for decoration unless you happened to be in the perfect spot, but whatever. Overall, it still looked super impressive. 4 stars from me...

I went in expecting a fun weekend, but the crowd kind of ruined it for me. People were being pushy, obnoxiously loud, and just not paying attention to anyone around them at all.
I’ve been to plenty of festivals, and this one felt weirdly tense the whole time. It’s hard to enjoy the music when you’re constantly getting shoved or dealing with rude people. The vibe was just NOT it.

I really wanted to love camping at Lost Lands, and parts of the weekend were still fun, but getting in was such a mess that it kind of set the tone right away. We sat around forever, and every time we asked where to go, it felt like we got a different answer.

The actual campsite was okay in theory, but our spot felt way too tight, and the bathrooms got gross fast. The showers were another whole thing with long lines, and it felt like no one was really keeping up with anything, which was frustrating because the festival itself has so much going for it.

I’m glad I went, and I still love the music and the vibe once you’re inside, but camping made the weekend way more stressful than it needed to be. I kept going back and forth between having a good time and being annoyed all over again, so I don’t think I’d camp there next time.

The bathroom situation made the whole weekend way more exhausting than it needed to be. By nighttime the porta potties were overflowing, and half the time I had to walk around checking multiple ones just to find toilet paper or hand sanitizer. It felt like way too much effort for something that should’ve been basic.

The showers weren’t much better. There were barely any, the lines were ridiculous, and when you finally got in, they were gross. Staff didn’t seem to know when anything was being cleaned either, so you’d waste even more time trying to figure it out. For what we paid, the facilities really shouldn’t have been this bad.

I really wanted to enjoy Lost Lands more, and to be fair, the sound and music were genuinely awesome. You can tell a lot of effort goes into the production. But the venue layout was frustrating at times, especially with how far apart some of the stages felt and how quickly the paths got crowded at night.
The bathrooms and water stations also didn’t seem super convenient, so we ended up doing more backtracking than expected. I get that a festival this size is tough to organize, but for the price, I expected the flow of the venue to be planned a little better.

I just wanted to put on some music and relax, but the sound made it way harder than it needed to be. The bass was overpowering everything, the vocals sounded muddy, and after a while it just gave me a headache. It felt like such a simple thing to get right, but the audio was a mess
