The foodie fest has really changed a bit since it first started! Now that it's partnered with Ceasars, they brought up the prices even more! From when it first started, the entrance fee used to be $8 and around $10 or $11 for the 4 days. That was a good deal! Of course I got the 4 day pass! But now they jacked up the prices to $11.50 for a day and $15 for the 4 day pass. You're not even paying for all four days because the hours are only from 4-12 am on Thursday and Friday. And then, 12-12 on Saturday and they're only open til 10 on Sunday.
The prices of the food at the food trucks are too much! They must be charged a lot of money just to have their truck there. Food trucks are known to be cheap fast food on the roll, but the prices here are overwhelming. I think they're just forced to cost that much because they have to somehow make money.
Anyways, I still go because the food is so good.
My recommendations include Jogasaki spider sushi burrito, Q up bbq fries, and belly bombz pork sliders.
Upside is that from my experience, I was able to sneak in some water bottles.
