Wife and I are coming to town for the At The Station concert in October and are looking to book transportation from our hotel to the concert and from the concert to the hotel. Any recommendations on that type of service? Don't want to rely on Uber/Lyft since I'm sure it will be a madhouse trying to get out of there after the concert.

We are open to anything, even paying a student if needed. Would appreciate any advice!

Ps. I don't post on here often so if there is a better forum for my request please feel free to send me that way.

What's wrong with Uber/Lyft here? Even if you had a generous family member willing to drive for free, or paid top dollar for a limo, they're all competing on the same roadways.

I assumed wait times and peak need price increases.

I've been to music festivals in the middle of large cities and had trouble with cell service. If you and hundreds of others are out in the boonies of Snook and trying to get a Lyft on your mobile at 1am, good luck. Even if you get signal and put in the request, the price will be insane and the wait will be long.

I'm going and we paid for a parking pass. Also, the lack of communication from this festival has been concerning. They don't answer social media inquiries on posts, messenger, or respond to emails. Hope it pans out!

In my experience when thousands of people are trying to get an Uber or Lyft at the same time, it can be less than reliable. And if you do get lucky and get one you can expect to pay vastly inflated prices.

Which is why I would like to book something with a reputable company with scheduled pick up times. Thanks for your thoughts though.

I believe Ground Shuttle offers private car service, there is a request option for it on their website- under the charter tab

I don't have anything constructive to add, but how have I not heard of this event until now?

Because they suck at communicating?

Ground Shuttle - they have handled executive car service and a shuttle bus for me in the past.

Which is why we need another concert venue / convention center. It'll improve the sucky communication!
