I’ve been wanting to visit Cuba for a while, aside from cost, do members who attended the festival before recommend it? Or would it be too crowded/ touristy?

The Habanos Festival it'self is not my scene but I have mates who love it.  It is great to catch up with industry friends but it is busy. Lounges are full, better  restaurants can be difficult to get into, factoriy tours harder, just overall....it is far more difficult to spend quality time with the people you would love to do so. 

The Habanos dinners vary from "plain incompetence" to "so quirky their good". You will never see so much "self love" as at a Habanos dinner. Listening to the speeches drag on, you would swear Baghdad Bob wrote the HSA scipt.

Again, somepeople love it. Distributor parties are a highlight if you can swing an invite.
