Title: 2018 Rave of Thrones - Omnia Nightclub ft Kristian Nairn (Hodor)
Post by: SynXack on June 04, 2018, 08:17:19 AM
Anyone every been?  How was it?

Looking at the past it was 20$ for tickets with 50$ VIP tickets... what about table/bottle service?  Was that an option? Did they not do table service for that event?

Wow that's a really decent price for a party like that.  Nairn isn't a cheap DJ at all (I've had friends who run conventions look into the cost of booking him but I don't think I'm allowed to state the exact price).  I second your question about table or bottle service.  Wondering if the ticket cost comes with anything besides just admission?

Last year the 50$ VIP included front of the line admission and 50$ "drink card" for the bar. So yea :) "free drinks" and no waiting to get in.

Holy h*ck.  That's a good deal.  Unlimited free drinks? Or just a few?

It's a 50$ credit so as many drinks as you can get for 50$ which probably wouldn't be alot at club price. My guess 2 or 3 cocktails, maybe 4 beers?

Haha that's fair.  Still not a bad price, though.  I'm going to seriously consider this.  Thanks for all the info!

I don't know if it's already been posted but Rave of Thrones is returning this year for SDCC:

http://www.kristiannairn.com/tour-dates/?event_id1=15

It's at the Omnia on Thursday, July 19. Tickets are already sold out but I believe you can still buy them at the door (hehehe Hodor) for $20.

I might check this out since I normally don't do anything Thursday nights. If anyone else has gone, what's it like?

I just bought tickets, maybe try again?

I didn't expect the race to get offsite tickets would start so soon.  I thought we would have a couple of more weeks.

I'm unable to purchase tickets through that link and I don't see any links on the Omnia website.  Anyone else able to successfully get tickets?  I have several people interested in going with me so I think this might happen.

I have an email inquiry in for table and bottle service. No reply yet.

I’m traveling from Australia (without a badge) with my partner (who got a badge), so I’m not leaving anything to chance and booking things as they come up.

I went last year and there was table/bottle service active but I didn't see how you went about getting a table. You probably have to contact the club before hand for that info.

We went last year and did have a good time, but I would say it was certainly more like a standard night at a nightclub, rather than a SDCC event. We did the regular admission, which took a while to get in the door. As with other events, Nairn wasn't the first act. I don't remember how long it was before he got out there and played the set, but it was a while. Not a bad thing, but it might help to manage expectations! There wasn't any seating available in the club if you hadn't bought table/bottle service, which isn't a big deal until your feet are about to give out, haha. There is an outdoor space there, but the patio was closed for a private event all night, so no one could even go up to the top floor of the place. We never inquired about the table/bottle service, but it did look like some were available...but I bet it was expensive. If we go again this year, I would probably do the $50 ticket, so that I could get in faster, have a few free drinks, and I wouldn't arrive until later in the evening.

All in all, it was an awesome event! It was also kinda neat to see the standard "club" crowd with nice clothes mixed with cosplayers, mixed with folks in t-shirts, lanyards, and book bags, haha.

Speaking of dresscode they seemed really random about who they let in and who they turned away because of how they were dressed. Looked like they were trying to force club attire but they let cosplayers in and eventually started letting in people just walkiing in from the con. I did see them turn people away for wearing t-shirts and sneakers while I was in line though which was weird given the con and theme.

I haven't been, but the Omnia does have a pretty clear dress code on their website. I'm sure it was a challenge to figure out how to apply it to cosplay, but I'm not surprised they turned away non-cosplayers who didn't follow it.

I need to get better club clothes lol.  I went to the Omnia last year for a party and got in just fine but I did feel under dressed.  I was wearing dark jeans (so maybe they didn't look like jeans), a take top with a nice blouse over it, and sneakers.

Nothing on the club site

The UBlog tweeted the announcement for this way back in March. I can't find anything that says exactly when tickets went on sale but it was probably quite a while ago.

I think they haven't officially announced the ticket site, but the Omnia is selling tickets with a similar pricing structure to Kristian's past Rave of Thrones Comic Con events and Kristian's site says that he will be at the Omnia on July 19th.

Omnia site tickets:

Kristian's site:

While it isn't clear if this is the same event, I think it probably is.

Whoa interesting. Weird how they won't say it's for Rave of Thrones, though. How certain are we that it's for that event?

I am not certain.  I probably wouldn't purchase the tickets until it's clear one way or the other.  They do not appear to be refundable.  However if you don't want to miss it...the risk might be worth it.

Yep I'm not spending my money on it for sure.  I wonder if we call them we'll get a definitive answer.  I'm at work at the moment but might be worth it if somebody is free.

I online chatted with a VIP reservation concierge who told me that the DJ for July 19th had not officially been announced but that since it was Comic Con “it would probably be Kristian Nairn”. Good info to support my suspicion but not strong enough to compel me to get tickets yet.

Atleast you got a response! lol I emailed them last week.  Got an immediate canned pre-written email from Hakkasan Group saying "they'd love to answer questions about bottle service, what time can we call you."  I replied and also asked for confirmation that this would be for Rave of Thrones.  I did not get a reply back to that email nor a call.

The first link does have his name and date on it though. Seems pretty explicit that this is for the event we're thinking of. I'll probably buy
