Many event attendees will choose to extend their vacation.

Arrive a day early to settle in, familiarize yourself with the property, and prepare for the party. Stay a day late to relax, recover, and revisit your favorite moments from the festival.

Extended nights are highly recommended, as they grant access to several perks, including:

• Faster check-in and shorter lines.
• A full night’s sleep before the music begins Friday.
• An extra day of all-inclusive food, drink, and resort experience.
• First dibs on restaurant and spa reservations.

When you purchase your room, your confirmation email will include a link to purchase pre-festival and post-festival nights.

Extended nights not booked through the festival cannot be linked to other reservations, and guests will need to check out and check back into a new room on the official festival start date.

TOOL Live in the Sand can not guarantee airport shuttles for guests who have booked their extended nights directly through the resort, as we schedule shuttles based on festival reservations only. Buying your extensions through us is the only way to receive the same room for the entirety of your stay.

Reservations will be necessary for all specialty restaurants in advance to guarantee availability and your preferred seating times.

Reservations can only be made in person onsite at the resorts.

If you arrive early at the festival, you can make your reservations for your whole stay when you arrive. Reservations are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Tool Live in the Sand guests who extend their stay to arrive early have the first chance at restaurant reservations.

At both the Hard Rock and Royalton, there are both reservation-only restaurants and walk-in buffets.
