Overview

Dark Lord Day 2013 was held on Saturday, April 27th. This year saw a large expansion in the size of the festival grounds. In addition to the Three Floyds' property, the festival included the parking lot immediately north of the brewery, the large vacant lot across the street, and most of Indiana Parkway. As a result Indiana Parkway was blocked off to traffic at both Progress Ave and Superior Drive.

The expanded space allowed the band stage to be moved outside. A large tent with picnic tables for bottle sharing was setup in the field across from the brewery. Guest taps were stationed near this tent. The expanded footprint helped significantly in reducing crowding. They also increased the number of porta potties significantly, making wait times to use the restroom much shorter if at all.

The ticket price doubled from $15 to $30. More group sales times were added, bringing the total to five (Groups A-E). The major change was the printing of the purchasers name on the ticket. This was to make tickets non-transferable to address the issue of ticket re-sellers and scalpers.
