Best Tables at Surrender for Bachelor Party

[ABC2223]

Bachelor party with 11 guys wanting to do bottle service on Friday April 12th with Eric Prydz. I have never been to Surrender and all of the layout/table maps haven't been very useful. It looks like there are way more tables and cabanas in the videos.

What would be our best bet if we want foot traffic and want to be near the action and possibly be able to see Prydz etc. We cant afford the big dance floor table at 5k+ but what would be our next best bet?

Some of the youtube videos walking around the venue make it look extremely spread out but I would assume that Prydz will draw a big crowd on a Friday?

Would the tables immediatly outside the dance floor be a good choice? Can they hold a party our size? Minimums?

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks

Take a look at the pictures from Calvin Harris on 3/16 on surrenders facebook page

that will give you a sense of the place

Any inside table will do the business - Surrender is actually pretty small inside.

The tables immediately outside the exit (38/39 i think) are great bang for your buck, but of course, you're not inside. For a group of 12 though, I think you're better off going inside than getting like 3 or 4 (?) of those outside tables.

Thanks artedm, that helps a lot.

Ocam - Any inside tables or combination of inside tables come to mind for a group of 11 total?

I mentioned that I was quoted at $5k+ for the "large" dance floor table, but my group doesnt want to spend that much, looking for a $1500-$2000 minimum if possible.

I think you're gonna struggle on that budget. I'd think you'd be looking at $2k min for 11 guys, but doubt that would get you inside (you might even need 2 inside tables with 11 dudes). If you can somehow land inside, then I'd take it - cos Surrender is actually pretty small and every inside table is good and has solid foot traffic.

Otherwise, I'd say aim for those patio tables right outside the door.

Thanks, ocam. What about other clubs that would be more in the $1000-$1500 budget, maybe B1G1 or B2G1? Obviously not XS and Marquee but whats the best of the not top clubs? That would be solid for a bachelor party?

2k assuming no special event should get you a good table at 1Oak, Pure, Bank, Hyde, Tryst, Haze, etc.. basically the "tier 2s"

My unfortunately unhelpful answer is - it depends. I'm an EDM fan, and particularly a big fan of Eric Prydz... so I would go to Surrender that night regardless of where I ended up being located based on my budget.

If you want value for money, then kazflair is correct (but those places are "open format" rather than pure EDM):
