In my opinion, the first JBL festival in 2023 is better than the second JBL festival in 2024, in several ways:
1. For gold tickets, no seat numbers are given, so you can sit anywhere you want, and if you want to leave your seat to go to the toilet, you're afraid someone else will take your seat.
2. You can't bring drinks in, even if you buy mineral water there & sponsored brands, you'll be very thirsty and nauseous during the concert.
3. Ticket prices have changed to be much cheaper, poor people like me who already bought tickets at the normal price at the beginning. I was promised a compliment ticket for day 2 even though I had confirmed it via WA & email, but I didn't get the email for the day 2 ticket, it was a complete dud.
4. JBL festival 2023, there were many spectators who got fans & light hand, but this time I didn't get anything, it was just quiet.
5. For the sound, I feel it's a bit shrill, the bass is lacking.
Hopefully, JBL Festival 2025 can be better, so far at JBL 2024 the singers & bands are all okay.
