Best nightclubs for GA/Presale?

[zero]

A few people in my group no longer are interested in doing bottle service but still want to go out, leaving only 3 of us that want to do bottles.

If we go the GA/Presale route, are there places better than others for this? I know the dance floor will always be packed, but hopefully there are some places where it isn't insanely hard to get a drink and there's places to walk around and breathe. Outdoor places like Surrender and XS come to mind, but I've never been to those without bottle service.

Do all clubs allow you to walk everywhere if you do GA/Presale? Or are there certain ones where you need to be VIP to access the dance floor.

the dance floor is always open

Just do bottles and let the other pikers figure out what they can do...

Trust me.. they will be wanting to join the table when they are sardines in GA

I went to XS once when Guetta was playing, and we had a table outside. But we needed an extra wrist band for 10 dollars to get into the dance floor/inside area. That's why I was worried that if we did presale, there would be certain areas of the club not available to us.

That happens with XS on big name nights sometimes, but you generally will know in advance based on the ticket you buy.

I did presale for Kaskade back in December at XS. I had access to the whole club while the people that only did GA had access to the whole club but if you went outdoors you were stuck outside (the club was packed). I had no issue moving from area to area.

All that outdoor space at XS for dancing is a huge plus on popular nights and when the weather is hot. I hate crammed and sweaty dancefloors

Always had a good time GA or presale at XS but I also like the outdoor space vs the dance floor.

Is there much of a difference between Surrender and XS? I'm probably looking to go to one of those on Saturday GA/Presale (Zedd would be playing at XS, and DJ Snake? would be playing at Surrender). They both seem like big places with an outdoor area to roam and good for GA/Presale.

xs better

dj snake is a better dj if your trying to decide between both.

Think that's debatable, and Zedd is gonna draw a great looking crowd.

Will XS have any restrictions with Zedd playing? Like if you go outside you won't be able to go back inside if it gets too packed type dealio?

[maxutilsperusd]

Zedd isn't the biggest name but he isn't the smallest either, so it's hard to say. The whole stuck outside thing isn't the kind of thing you are going to have an easy time finding out beforehand, unless when you go to Wantickets they specifically say indoor only ticket which has sometimes been the case.

XS is definitely the better club out of the two, and Zedd is a bigger name than DJ Snake so he'll bring the better crowd no matter who the better DJ is.

agreed it is debatable, I much prefer DJ snakes set to Zedd. however, zedd is still a good dj.
