COTA is only venue that if you arrive early, you are directed to park the as far away from the venue as possible. Those that arrive late, park closer to the venue in the same lot. Our parking lot was not labeled so we drove around the venue getting incorrect directions. The walk to the concert venue during GP F1 was dark, crowed and unsafe. It was like herding cattle through a cattle guard at midnight. After the event was over, the General Admission crowd had to walk back up the hill and traverse through one narrow exit up a number of switchbacks and of course, no signs directing the crowd to the correct parking lot. COTA is a nice venue, it is just run by poor organizers.
