Discount Ticket Special for Bond-Fire Fest



The funkalicious New Year's Eve festival (Dec. 29-Jan. 2) in rural Lake County outside Orlando, called the Bond-Fire festival, is now offering 4-day tickets for $100. This promo lasts one week, ending next Sunday, Nov. 27,  at 11:55, use the case sensitive promo code SIRPRIZE. Kids 15 and under are free.

The lineup includes George Clinton and P-Funk, The New Mastersounds, North Mississippi All Stars, Soullive, Zach Deputy, Papadosio, Cope, The New Orleans Suspects, and more.

This is a first-time affair, so I can't advise much about festing conditions. I can tell you these bare details: The venue has port-o-lets only -- no brick-and-mortar bathrooms. They plan several stages and a late-night tent. They will be restricting campfires to designated areas -- that part of Florida has been so very dry. No pets, no charcoal grills. You can have coolers at the campground but not at the stages.





The four-day pass includes primitive camping. You cannot reserve RV sites ahead of time -- if you want to bring an RV in and set it up in primitive, you have to pay an extra $65 at the gate. If you want an electric site, it’s $85. The promoters were not sure, when I contacted them about a month ago, whether RV sites would have water as well as electric. So I'd bring my own water if I were you, along with my festive disco outfits. They have a no-glass policy, so not sure about how to handle New Year's bubbly. Do they make champagne kegs?
