Are you Dan Bilzerian? Are you a trust fund baby? Maybe you actually earned a ton of money on your own. Looking to spend it on a once in a lifetime experience? Iceland’s Secret Solstice Festival recently announced what is considered the world’s most expensive festival ticket. It costs $1,000,000 if the title didn’t spoil it already. This easily tops last year’s ticket five times over as it was offered for $200,000. Although, this year’s ticket is for only one person and not two like last year. Now, before you get your panties in a bunch of why it costs so much, here’s the list of what they’re offering (so far) for the extravagant price.

The festival is already filled with top notch names names but, there will be two performances that only the purchaser of this ticket will be able to attend. Don’t get turned off by the price as they offer much more reasonable prices starting at 24,900 Icelandic krona (approx. £143/$202/€177) for a full festival pass or 34,900 Icelandic krona (approx. £200/$283/€249) for a VIP pass to the entire event.
This is an event that is held during the summer solstice because the sun never fully sets the entire weekend due to Iceland’s close proximity to the Arctic Circle. This event is truly one of the most unique festivals, if not the most unique music festival out there. Four days of straight awesomeness.
Now, if I had the money to spend $1,000,000 for four days, you bet your sweet ass, I’d do this. Seeing as I don’t, I’ll just go to my semi-inflated palm tree and pseudo-margarita mix with back-alley tequila.
