Omega Events

Cannot get through on the phone lines. Even during «business hours» no answer.

We paid $ 1000 for 4 VIP tickets to the 2014 Doheny Blues Festival. Because Omega Events oversold tickets for the VIP seating section, we, and many other VIP ticket holders had to sit in the General Admission area. If we had bought General Admission tickets, our cost would have been $ 500 instead of $ 1000. We have asked Omega Events several times for the $ 500 that they overcharged but we have never received a response from customer service nor anyone else at Omega Events. The staff and security were great at the venue but I would recommend to anyone thinking of going to the Doheny Blues Festival to forego purchasing the VIP tickets because you will not get value received. If you read some of these other reviews, you will see that Omega Events has a history of cramming too many people into a venue. We have attended twelve or so Doheny Blues Festivals in the past with generally good experiences during those earlier years but during the last four years, the experience has deteriorated with crowded conditions and toilets overflowing with human waste. We are not inclined to attend another one.

Great Customer Service and an Awesome Concert!
I found out about Omega Events from the Peter White Christmas Concert on November 29^th, at the Hyatt in Huntington Beach. This event was so much fun and the customer service I received from Sara over the phone, and at the event, easily deserves 5 stars.
Looking forward to New Year’s Eve with Brian Culbertson!

THIS REVIEW IS FOR OMEGA EVENTS SPECIFICALLY, NOT THE DOHENY DAYS FESTIVAL.
Stupid idea… and it wastes a lot of your valuable time.
Made for the Doheny Days Festival to be a logistical nightmare.
1. Get your wristband in one line and add money to it
2. Show your ID to get another wristband in another line
3. One line for beers
4. Another separate line for boos (so if you are drinking boos and your girlfriend is drinking beer or vice versa you’ve just wasted more of your time waiting in lines while music is playing)
5. They had some problems reading peoples balances on the wristbands, this created further time waiting in line…
6. Very ridiculously long lines everywhere. I ended up spending my initial allotment of $$$ and had to wait in line to add money (again), then get back in line again for whatever… food, boos, T-​shirts, etc…
7. Overall, the wristband thing kind of soured the experience.
Not recommended.

Very happy with how well organized Doheny Beach Blues Festival was. Great line-​up, well thoughtout layout, and felt very safe. Well done!

We attended in 2010. Great show, excellent line-​up, food selection was OK– pricey (as is expected at a concert). Well worth attending. Can’t wait to see the 2011 line-​up.

Omega Events is of the most professional event producers I have ever encountered. I would highly recommend any shows and festivals that they produce.
I’ve been to the Doheny Days Blues Festival and the World Music Festivals and both were very well organized and extremely well executed. They are very attentive to details and well informed in terms of the music scene and providing high quality musical entertainment.
