One person who spoke with FOX 5 said they traveled all the way from New York for the festival, but missed the final performance of day two after being denied re-entry to the festival.

"they weren’t forthcoming about what was going on. They were just saying no one’s getting in – we’re at capacity, but what’s perplexing is given the amount of space given, you should be able to count how many people are in and let people know otherwise you can’t oversell an event where no one can come back in," Deion Stalling tells FOX 5.
