The VIP Tent is a private hospitality lounge near the George R. Brown Convention Center entrance, included with any VIP pass. Inside you get seating, cooling stations, charging stations, complimentary water and soda, scheduled food tastings, and a VIP lanyard and tote bag.

Passes are available for Saturday, Sunday, or the full weekend, with group packages too. See VIP options and pricing.
