Additional Information

Vegoose is an annual music Festival that takes place over Halloween weekend in Las Vegas, Nevada. Produced by Superfly Productions and AC Entertainment - the same folks who put on Bonnaroo. Since Vegoose takes place in Las Vegas, a fairly metropolitan type city, festival-goers are not able to camp on-site. Instead, you will spend your nights sleeping at one of the many resorts or hotels.

Vegoose is not just a music festival, but also offers plenty of other activities. Some that have been listed are celebrity impersonations, costume contents, a massive pumpkin display, all in the spirt of Halloween and having a great time with other people.

Vegooose takes places at Sam Boyd Stadium (pictured to the bottom-right) - a football stadium built in 1971 in Las Vegas. Sam Boyd Stadium has been renovated several times over the years, but in its current form has a seating capacity of 36,800. Don't forget you also have the entire football field and side-line areas as well.

Per Wikipedia, The Grateful Dead played 14 shows at Sam Boyd Stadium during the 1990's - this venue definitely has a significance to many festival-goers.

Sam Boyd Stadium

Vegoose in years past has had many different features besides the great bands and artists. Such activities have included a Silent Disco, a Vegoose Market - which is a large gathering of vendors who are able to sell their one-of-a-kind clothing and handmade jewelry, etc.

There has also been a Vegoose Poster Art Exhibit which is really appealling. This exhibit actually brings together top poster artists from across the country to showcare work they have done of your favorite bands and artists.
