Axpona 2025

Everything Else

Rooms booked. Who else is going? I’m waiting to see what the Gold Pass ticket price will be. The regular three day has gotten rather outrageous! :angry: I remember when the Gold Pass cost less than the current price for the three day.

With other important events at that time, I’m only 49.9% sure I’m going.
But I’m 100% sure I want to go.

Ron, are you going to CAF?

No. I wish I could but it’s been really busy around here.

Where are you staying at Axpona?

The Hyatt Regency, unfortunately. Renaissance was sold out.

Too bad. I’m flying up for one day, Saturday, to hear the new Von Schweikert VR30, and see my old friends Damon, and Mat and Harry.

Agree, and Gold Pass prices are not posted. Considering it is local a hotel is not necessary in my case. The 2024 Axpona was so crowded I am re-thinking it this year. I’m in Ron’s boat, about 49.9% likely to attend, conflicting priorities. Friday is the best for me, as it is a little less crowded. Always nice to meet-up with Forum members, other off Forum friends and dealers.

I’m in. Bought a multi day pass. Although, last year I bought a 2 day pass, but only went one day. It was crowded. Favorite day is Friday, least crowded. Live in Orland Park so I will not be staying at a hotel.

I’ll be there first day for a few hours as usual…don’t like crowds, audio, and mostly old men in jeans. :nerd_face:

Hey, I read that NB are now the “in” sneakers for one of the younger Gens. Everything old apparently is eventually new again :smile:, except for the people :face_with_diagonal_mouth:.

Going to be a great show…Gary is up to like ~120 room…not quite Axpona but love that it’s local on East coast. I don’t think I am going to Axpona this year…been last 6 years, but need to focus on finishing the theater…not Axpona stuff :slight_smile:
