Tic Toc I read your trip report and love your free spirit. This will be my 2nd time going to ATI hopefully I will make it to ATI 2013 I would love to meet you and your lovely family. It will be great to make it a yearly event to meet some boardies around that time. So hopefully Rob can make this possible
Hey butterfly...I'm from nassau county...never been down for ATI .....I am so looking forward....
Hi Butterfly, this is my first time going to ATI but I hear its been nice each year. For some of guys who have been there before which one has the better wristband, ATI or Smirnoff Dream? The early ATI bands are $13K JD, and $160 US via the www.atiweekend.com website. I can't tell much from the line up but what you think?
Hi there Butterfly. Hi nyseness
Each time I’ve attended, we bought our bands there once we knew which events we were attending. I would guess it would be another month before line ups are posted.
One year I attended events at both Appleton and Smirnoff. I LOVED the waterpark afternoon. The sound systems are excellent EVERYWHERE. Each venue was packed with partiers. Plain clothes security personnel are all over ready to take care of any situation that needs attention.
Tip, if attending night events, prepare to walk back to your hotel if possible. Taking a taxi would be a big mistake as the traffic will be bumper to bumper for hours.
Hi Vi, Thanks for the information. I plan on going to at least one of the events. I went for the first time last year. The line up is already posted. I'll e mail it to you. I plan on going to Port Antonio this trip also. I can't wait.
Thank for the info vi!! I am also planning on going to just a few, not many of the events...it is nice to know that you can buy a wristband for what you want to attend instead of committing to the whole weekend or to everything. Good tip about the walking. I stay outside of Negril so will keep this in mind. Guess the beach road is kinda like it is on New Years Eve, basically a parking lot!! Getting excited....soon reach!!

northerncaligurl,
Actually it’s probably going to be 3 times busier than new year’s eve. Remember this is also their 50th year independence celebration. I understand there will be parties and events starting from the end of july so Westmoreland is going to be packed.
Make plans to walk as far as you can after the night events. The road way is one long slow moving string of headlights and the roadside is lined with vendors galore. We stopped at three different soup vendors one night because someone had something better than the last. The same with jerk chicken grills.
No, you don’t have to commit to the whole weekend. Once you know which events you want to attend, purchase your pass for that event.
