ACM Party For A Cause

This was the best way to see the hottest Country acts around! The all female lineup on Friday was exceptional! Loved seeing all the new talent as well as one of my all time favorites, Martina McBride! And, Carrie blew me away with her mad harmonica skills! Days two and three were also a blast! I'm definitely going back next year and telling all my friends! I went solo this year and loved it!

Great 3 days, Friday saw everything, the "Women of Country" killed it. Didn't get there Sat till the Main stage artists started. A little disappointed with the sound equipment "tent" area. It really took up too much of the view for people in chairs like my wife and I that aren't young enough to stand up front that long. So if you didn't get chairs set up real early you had to rely on the screens. Which doesn't show what we want to see all of the time, which for a live event that your paying for you want to be able to see the artists even at a distance. We did meet some great people Sat. that we hooked up with again on Sun. If you can figure out a way so the sound equipment doesn't dominate such a large area blocking views in the center. would be great. Even the side areas were limited on where you could see the stage good. So if you could stand all day right in front of the stage it would have been perfect. But who no matter what age wants to stand for 8 + hours?

Everyone I ever wanted to see all wrapped up in one event. A Thousand Horses killed it. Justin Lynch surfed the crowd in an inflatable boat Chris Young and Lee Brice were amazing. What can I say about the headliners other than perfect. This was our second time attending and are already looking forward to next year.

This event was so much fun!!! The venue was great. Much better crowd control than Route 91!!!!

The ACM Party for a Cause is one of the most fantastic events to attend. It is so well organized and all the artists are all so happy to be performing for such a worthy cause. They are very visible to us fans by interacting with us throughout the day., the new venue is beautiful. I loved all the artists who performed from the headliners to the supporting artists. I recommend this to any country fan.

Concerts were great but the facilities and setup were not very event friendly. For starters, they put a 20x20 flap tent in the middle of the viewing area that should've been raised so people could at least see under or through it. Secondly, a runway, that appeared on last day, should have been out there all weekend so more people had access to closer views. Felt like I paid $200 to watch TV all weekend and I got there within 10 minutes of gate opening +/- every day. Then certain meet and greets were cancelled with no notice, not even updates on their ACM app. Sound people took three days to get it clean. Also, local assistance was not knowledgeable about the areas events including gates, parking, etc... The flap tent needed to go! We sat on sides but the facility people changed the rules each day...one day no concrete seating, next day no seating within 3 foot of gates, next day whatever went Uber deal was not a deal at all since we had to sit in 45 minutes of traffic to get to area 3 miles away....but that made us take the shuttle or monorail the remainder of days.

The festival was one of the best. Will attend next year if held here again.

I had a great time at the ACM Party for a Cause. I would only recommend having more shaded area and to ensure vendors have plenty of water and ice for the hot days to avoid dehydration.

I loved the Vegas festival grounds during the 3 day event, but there were not enough big name performers. Last year in Dallas, there were so many more performers that everyone knew every song to. Vegas had too many new and up and comers while saving the big performances for the awards show

Not a great venue. Nothing spectacular for it being Vegas and the ACM awards being in town. Beer lines were long and slow. Not staffed appropriately for the crowd of ppl. Will not attend again.

It was most definitely worth the money spent on the ticket! All the artists were great and overall a amazing weekend! NEXT IS ROUTE 91!!!

Loved the show but it is a long outdoor festival. Traveling from a distance I paid a lot for the VIP section which would give me a seat, shade, food and toilets in one area. With knee issues it would be difficult for me to stand all day. Got there and they sold many more VIP tickets than they had seats for. i paid four times the price for the priviledge of standing anyway.

What can I say.... Kenny, Las Vegas, outdoors and beautiful weather. Just Amazing !

! General admission fans were closer than us! When we booked we got seats and when we got there the seats were not numbered in fact there were not enough seats for all VIP. Standing the whole time!!!.if we were paying for VIP tickets

Thought we had bought VIP tickets on the presale so we were very disappointed when we found our tickets were GA. The musical acts were good, some even great. I thought everything was done well except food and beverage. Really long lines, chips didn't always work and prices well above what was expected.

I love outdoor music festivals but not the hassle of getting there, jostling for personal space, or paying outrageous prices for food and drink...so I was a little concerned about spending 3 days with 30,000 of my closest "friends" in Las Vegas. Didn't need to be...great talent, fun activations, spotless venue.

Best ever, so many artist in one place, and as each day went on it got better and better!!!!!

Now I know not to waste my time and money on this next year.

Sound was horrible. We have seen Dierks a few times already and has always been awesome. This time he seemed off like the sound was affecting his performance.

This was our 1st experience with the ACM Party for a Cause. I just returned from 19 years overseas and hadn't had access to country music in almost 2 decades. When I heard about this event, I grabbed a girlfriend and we made our escape to Vegas. We spent 9 hours out at the ACM Party, enjoying the gorgeous weather, the people-watching, food, drink and fantastic shopping. I had no idea what to expect and we were pleasantly surprised by all the options on location. The music was sensational and we enjoyed every minute of our day. The crowds were cool and easy-going and the show was outstanding. We will definitely be back next year, with more friends and will make a whole weekend of it!!!

I will never bother with the cashless option again. Didn't work for the 3 of us attending and no one could explain why. Concert itself was great. Not very easy to Get into the LV festival grounds and a long wait for a taxi at the end.

This was such a wonderful time! This was my first time attending the ACM Party for a Cause, but will not be my last. Las Vegas- you did great, The Staff- friendly and organized, Musicians- outstanding, The Fans- wonderfully nice, Weather- thank you God!

ACM Party for a Cause was by far the best festival I've been to. From start to finish, nothing disappointed. Beautiful grounds, friendly staff, clean "real" restrooms and a wide variety of food and beverage choices. Having a locker to store our stuff and charge our phones was a huge bonus. All the other country festivals could really learn from this one. I will definitely be attending next year!!

The entertainment was wonderful! VIP was NOT so wonderful. Not enough VIP space for tickets sold, was very uncomfortable having to stand for hours, definitely not worth the extra dollars paid.. The beverage department needs some improvement as well, always running out of beer or being served warm beer.

I don't think they were prepared for all that showed up, but you would think they knew the amount of people that bought VIP tickets. We bought VIP tickets for almost $800.00 and could not even have a seat. We are in our 60's and cannot stand for 4-5 hours. The 1st night we had to stand and told it was 1st come 1st serve, so stayed a few hours and left. The second night the rows of chairs were all taken apart and they had less chairs, we asked a security person and he said people just took them. So we stood ! They had tall tables in the back of us for people to stand and have table service, but they also took chairs and were sitting under and by the tables so of course while we were standing (in the standing area) we were asked to move........so they could see ! We left and did not go back for the 3rd night !

artists were awesome. Gave their all. Organization did a very poor job taking care of those folks that paid extra for "VIP" status. No seats assigned as stated on your ticket. Every man for himself. run out of canned beer in the VIP section but not outside of it. Run out of beer cups in the VIP section but not in the general. One food truck for VIP and they were running out of options as well. Too much money for what they lacked.

The line-up was incredible! From the minor acts to the mega stars Dierks Bentley, Carrie Underwood and Kenny Chesney it was a jam packed weekend! Not only did they entertain but they also brought huge surprises to the stage like Miranda Lambert and Marren Morris! Some introduced new music while others showed us what the cause was actually for in bringing up millitary families in need. The surrounding areas around the stage included meet and greets with major country artists, great food and rides as well. If country music is your thing this is the event to attend! It also helped that the weather was perfect! We will return next year and hopefully many more years to come!

A-Awesome weather C-countless Country music M- Majestic musicians!!!

Great event and great VIP section. Great view from any location. Music could have been louder .

Venue was fantastic, very clean, plenty of bathrooms, great sitting on the lawn, good choices for food and drinks

The event was great! Pluses: There was plenty of room to relax in your chair. Our chairs were left unattended and never bothered. There were a ton of vendors to check out, the Raminator was a blast to watch, going on an adventurous ride in a Dodge Ram was fun, great ACM games, free water station to refill water bottles. You could relax in a chair and then go up front whenever you want. Minuses: It was hot in the sun and there was very little shade. There was a huge selection of food but it was totally overpriced. If you didn't bring a chair you had to sit on the ground. There was a huge structure right in front of the stage so no one directly behind it could see. You had to be on the left or right of the stage. It killed a lot of good seating area. Great line-up of artists! They didn't disappoint! ACMs kept giving out awards and donations. So heartwarming! We'll be there next year for sure!

The concert itself was awesome except the sound was a little hinky at times with the additional microphone not working when more than 1 person was on the stage. The other problem was the repeated loss of the video screens. They could use at least two more of the video screens throughout the property. Personally, I liked the venue. The bathrooms were clean and restocked frequently, and each time I went in there were no lines (which for a women's bathroom is pretty incredible). They had a large amount of vendors, although they could have used another one that served tea. The Gyro place was nice but they need more food options for those who don't eat meat. If they can continue to hold similar events I will go again. Maybe you can arrange with the LVCVA to use their parking for a fee to festival goers.

The performaces and performers were wonderful. The opportunity to see a few awards awarded was fun. And the organizers actually doing some of the cause work at the show was lovely. However the second hand smoking was unbareable. When other smokers agree thereshould be designated smoking areas you know it was bad. With the amount of attendees it would have been nice if more screens would have been around, the last night I ended up behind a generated with absolutely no view trying to get away from the cigeratte smoke, to no avail as people still smoked next to a generator with a no smoking sign.

I really liked ladies night. They were all good. I likrd Chris Stappleton and Kenny Chesney was the best. They all put on a good show and I would go again.

The key word for this festival is party. I thought the line-up of talent was great but it seemed like many people were there just to drink. It would be easier to tolerate all the drinking if the area in front of the stage was not general admission. I loved being close to the stage just did not like people that had to much to drink ruining the experience. I would go back if the festival had assigned seats.

I've never been to a country festival before, and my first one in Vegas didn't disappoint! It's crazy.. it's like seeing every concert you see all year at the same time. The lineup was great, the venue was great. Sound was fine, lots of good vendors for food, merchandise, games, exhibits and meet and greets.I will definitely be back in the future! Something to note.. it's a HUGE production. Be prepared. Sunscreen!!! chairs, towels.. etc. It's not something to just show up for and not give it any thought. The weather can be brutal and it was especially on Sunday when the show started early. Also some of the signage was a little confusing (like finding the Frontier Gate). But overall AMAZING once in a lifetime type experience. If you want to try a festival this is a good one. Every country star is in town, so it's going to be great every year. Also it's wonderful to be able to go back to a clean, quiet hotel room.

The entire 3 days of the ACM Party for a Cause was an exciting event but the highlight of the entire event was Carrie Underwood!! When we thought she was finished, she would come back on and give us more. Who knew that beautiful young lady could play a harmonica?

The performances were fantastic! We had VIP tickets and they were not worth the increased price. There were no chairs available on Saturday or Sunday. They ran out of cups and alcohol on Saturday night. Save your money and buy regular tickets and take a chair and umbrella. Nerdy but worth the savings. Also, the VIP seats were so far back you had to watch the screens to see the performers. But like I said in the beginning, the performances were awesome!!!

I bought the tickets on a whim last year when the VIP tix became available and am SO glad I did. It was such a fun time with some of the best music I've heard in a long time! The venue was good; clean, lots of bathroom facilities and the staff was totally on point. A little costly for food and drinks but not unexpected. Being this was the first time at this particular facility there were a few things they could and probably will improve on. Seating was probably the biggest complaint in the VIP area but we all survived. Can't say it enough-the event was FABULOUS!

Easy in and out every day. Great venue and line up. There seemed to be sound issues with many bands and seemed worse the further back you sat. Not sure why? Few close seats with out an unobstructed view sue to large sound booth so close to stage

Lots of performers for little money in a great venue. Too far away from stage, we had to fight our way through the general admission crowd to get near. Definitely not the sandbar experience we have become accustomed to with normal VIP tickets to other concerts and music festivals. Also beverage service was terrible in VIP, took over 30 min in line to get only 2 drinks. We never went back to VIP after the first day.

This event has grown so much and is now not as enjoyable as it used to be Too many people and not enough space for viewing and listening to the artists. It is very uncomfortable waiting in the heat between performances while people are pushing and shoving to get to the front of the standing room only area. The "bring your own chair" section is not wide enough and so if you can't get your chair down in the first section of BYOC's, the next section spanned out further but then the sound is compromised and you can't view the large screens to see the performers, much less see them on the stage since it's so far back. The sound was turned down for the first few performers until the headliners come out and then they finally turn it up which I don't feel is very fair to the other performers. Lee Brice had an off night, either he was sick or hoarse or something because we could barely hear him and when we did it didn't sound good at all. Kellie Pickler, Martina McBride and Carrie Underwood were amazing. Carrie put on a fantastic show! Chris Young sounded outstanding! Dierks Bentley was amazing as always. Kenny Chesney was amazing even though he was sick. On the plus side, there were plenty of restrooms and bars and so the wait was very minimal. There were a few good food places (BBQ and tacos and burritos were good) but the rest were just fair type food, greasy and fried stuff. If you want to shop there was lots of great shopping for your favorite cowgirl/cowboy items.

The concert line up was fabulous. Sets were short and moved right along. The Ladies of Country music on Friday kept right on schedule. Can't say the same for the next two days. The tickets reflected seat assignments. No seats and a Lord of the Flies atmosphere emerged as people staked out their turf and defended it against all comers.

This was a great time and wonderful way to support different causes. The only compliant I have is the sound system was terrible. If you were at the back of the venue the voices were distorted and you could barely hear. If you stood up by the stage the sound was great.

The concert was amazing. I am thinking of going next year because it was that much fun. I took my mom and she had a blast as well.

This was my first ACM for a cause. I am definitely attending next year!!

I never spent that money on a advent before but I have no regrets, it was great. The food prices were way too high though.

This is my second time attending this festival and I LOVED it even more! The new venue is way better than the old one! Lot's of space and grass area to sit. The lineup was the best part of the event! I can't wait till they announce next years. Will be going again.

I purchased VIP tickets to party for a cause. The VIP section was a least a football field away from the stage. A section of it was covered, but it was not big enough for all who purchased VIP tickets. I understood we would have a bar and food close by. The bar was downstairs away from concert area and to obtain food you had to go out of the VIP area. I feel like I paid a lot of money for these tickets and it was not worth it. Several people came by where we were sitting complaining.

My husband, myself and another couple drove from California to Las Vegas for the most wonderful 3 days! We liked the Festival grounds set up, the lay out of the open astro turf areas, food vendors, merch vendors was well thought out. The sound was really good and the view good when you were up on the top area of VIP or second level down. On the ground level, of the VIP area, the GA ticket holders stood in front of you and blocked the view of the stage. We had VIP tickets and the VIP area could have been planned a bit better. There were not enough of the perks that the VIP tickets should paid for and made available, such as food and drink providers. There were one of each. More shade would have been nice & more sofas too but over all the VIP area was okay and I can recommend it to friends.

I was very disappointed with the VIP package I purchased. I was under the impression that I would have an assigned seat. They had very little chairs and we could not find a seat. I paid the extra money for VIP so I could have a seat!!!

As soon as we booked our trip to Vegas we had to get tickets for this and I'm so glad we did. This made the entire trip, completely unforgettable! We checked out all the vendors which was awesome they were so much fun. On top of all that after the monster Dodge Ram truck ride my cousin won VIP tickets to Kip Moore and Sam Hunt!!! It was hot, the beer gardens were nice and cold and the people were awesome!!

Every artist was amazing live and sounded great! I would go every year!

It was the most awesome event I've ever been to. I went last year to the 50th and I thought that was awesome but this year topped it by far. It should be a bucket list item for every country music lover.

I still liked the 2 day event better as it gave you the option to go to the awards show itself if you wanted. As long as the line up is amazing I will be back every year as long as the tickets don't get to high in price.

I feel they definitely were not ready for that size of a crowd. Ran out of. A lot of things. I noticed a lot of people were disappointed in only wine spritzers not wine. 1 vendor had wine and it was gone by sat after noon. Also not many clothing/accessories vendors for the size of area.

We thought it was great, fun relax atmosphere, Great show, Easy to get close Besides going to the actual ACM awards it was one of the best parts of the weekend.

4 songs each!!!!!!!!! Have lawn chairs for people who can't get down in loungers?

Good event, took a little time to get there after LoCash concert-Could have started it later.

More songs, more music, please!!!!!!!! Artists could have played more hits.

Great songwriter round, three different publishing companies with MAJOR songwriters in each group. Loved the stories behind the songs and loved the impromptu guests that came out. Miranda Lambert, Dirks Bentley, Brandy Clark, Cam, to name a few.

Took over an hour to even get into event. They let people without tickets go ahead of people with. Total cluster. Inside event was fun, but there was sound problems during Old Dominion. Will not go next year unless it's the actual festival at fair grounds.

Too much time between acts and acts did not play very long. We really wanted to see Old Dominion but sound was lost into the 2nd song and it took forever to get it back. We had to leave for dinnwr resevation. Disappointing

All the performers were great! Plus being poolside made it wonderful

It was a relaxed fun night...with plenty of great surprise guests! Just wish the sound guys had everyone's guitars working!

speaker system was not the best No in ternary to follow - Long time between music performers It was more organized at Mandalay Bay

Amazing group of songwriters. A new, interesting venue. Eye opening.

My daughter & I thought the songwriters showcase sounded interesting and it was UNFORGETTABLE!

The artists were great of course. Plenty of places to get a drink. The restrooms were clean and never had to wait. No port a potties made for a much more pleasant time. I cannot wait to go to another of these concerts.

Loved it!! Wish I new ahead of time that we wouldn't have the seats like ticket master lists on our tickets. We sat on the ground as the vendor ran out of chairs for sale.

The musicians played their hearts out for us! Really impressive line up but I was most impressed by the number of full concerts we got and they did a great job of interacting with the audience in a way I'd not seen before at any concert. I wish the booths would have been a little closer or better dispersed throughout the park and I did get a little tried of the lawn chair after the second day, next time I'll bring a better chair !!!!

Will definitely plan on going back next year! Great entertainment and great venue. Lots of other activities and lots of food choices too.

FANTASTIC 3 DAY EVENT, WEATHER WAS GREAT, MUSIC OUTSTANDING, THE ARTIST GAVE THEIR ALL, CLEAN FACILITY, GREAT ALL AROUND FOOD AND BEVERAGES. THE SEATING SHOULD HAVE HAD HEADS UP TO BRING CHAIRS, PEOPLE STANDING IN FRONT OF THOSE SITTING ON GROUND OR SEATS WERE NOT GOOD. COULD NOT SEE THE STAGE AT ALL AND HARD TO SEE SCREENS ALSO AT TIMES. HARD TO STAND FOR 8 HOURS IF YOU R A SENIOR. THE LIGHTING TENT IN FRONT OF THE STAGE TOOK MOST OF THE VIEW AWAY. OVERALL THIS EVENT WAS GOOD. I WILL KNOW NEXT TIME TO BRING A CHAIR AND TO GET AN EARLY START FROM GET GO. HARD TO ACCOMMODATE EVERY LITTLE PICKY REQUEST. i WILL B BACK!!! SAID I HAD SECTION GA48,ROWGA5,START SEAT 27,END SEAT 28 BUT NO ONE KNEW WHERE THIS WAS??

As a whole, the Party for A Cause concert was phenomenal, Vegas is the perfect location for this venue. We purchased VIP tickets as a splurge and were disappointed in them. What is advertised is NOT what you get for the money. There were not enough seats for everyone, there was ONE food truck and ONE bar truck per side for both VIP sections. This means that there were 3 bartenders on each side; we waited 45 minutes to get drinks. The food vendor had limited food as well, no real choices....we had to leave the VIP area to get drinks and food. The bathrooms were portosans, maybe 5 stalls to the womans room, always a line...we went into general admission for bathrooms, food, and drinks the whole time because they could not accomodate the VIP section adequately. I asked to speak to a mananger the first night to voice our concerns, and nobody knew who the boss was!!! ridiculous.... I bought 10 tickets and we came from New York for this show; as i said before, we splurged and were disappointed in the whole VIP experience. I hope that this review finds a supervisor somewhere and improvements are made because we would love to go to the concert again, perhaps general admission will be fine.

3 DAY CONCERT IS WELL WORTH THE MONEY & ALLOWS YOU TO COME & GO FROM THE FAIR GROUNDS

Love the Fair type atmosphere. Food selection was fun. Loved the photo op moments. The Dodge Ram displays were fun. Next time, it would be better if .... you had sunscreen available to purchase maybe in mini's, you had more staff security especially around the pitts, you did NOT invite the straighter/curlining iron foreigner gentlemen that were completely offensive and pushy wanting to know exactly how much cash I had on me, Love that the restrooms were air conditioned, no bags to hold the "merchandise" we purchased was annoying and maybe a better set up for taxi's after the concert would be nice

What an amazing experience for Country Music Fans. This was an opportunity to see all the biggest and up-and-coming Country Acts all in a single 3-day event. At this venue I would not have paid for VIP seating although it was raised seating it was far away from the acts. My only reservation about this event was how rushed all the sets felt. As the day went on the sets got longer for the larger acts. But, it felt rushed at times- especially on Sunday. I understand everyone needed to beautify and get to the Awards but, the day felt very rushed. I thought it was really cool to experience some performers receiving their awards at the show! Venue could have done a better job of informing attendees about filtered water stations. I ran into a number of concert goers who were feeling the heat and the alcohol because they were not drinking enough water. Most said that water was too expensive and didn't know about filtered water set up throughout the festival grounds. Venue staff were all very friendly and did a great job.

Venue was a bit too large for size of stage. They should have added additional speakers and monitors throughout the property. If not seated or standing close enough, it was hard to enjoy the performers. Too much downtime between performers and should have provided up and coming type of stages for other performers similar to Route 91. Beer selection did not include imports. I felt overall setup was extremely commercialized and may not attend next year.

Loved the concert! All the performers were wonderful! The Las Vegas Festival Grounds are very nice! I wasn't expecting "real bathrooms" but that is what they had there! I NEVER had to wait in line. I was always able to just walk to an open stall. It was wonderful. Love the cashless wrist band. Although the retail booths didn't use the cashless wrist bands. Glad I brought my credit card, just in case. We used the Monorail to get to the venue the whole weekend. First time to ride the Monorail. It was a very nice way to get to the venue. SUGGESTIONS FOR LAS VEGAS FESTIVAL GROUNDS: You need to have more people emptying trash cans. AND more trash cans. I would also suggest getting TV screens set up so that the people way in the back could see what is going on stage. Saturday evening, the restrooms ran out of toilet paper. You need to have a bathroom crew in there checking on those things. Drink lines were way too long! You should not have to wait 30 minutes to get a drink.

Overall great cause and Concert Festival. The afternoon acts were short, but it was great to see so many performers. Wish there were more opportunities for meet n greats.

We absolutely loved this event and plan on returning next year if it returns to Vegas!
