Thanks.

Anyone else with information or someone that was actually there and did go to daven would be greatly appreciated

Maybe try calling the Uman center for details if there’s anyway to daven

Many women go other times during the year, I understand your really want to go . It’s just packed to the brim with men from all over the world.
my Dh tries going every year bH we stay home /eat by my parents.

UNofficially its only for men. But if a woman wants to go, she very much can.
I kmow a woman who goes every year. There are a few here and there.

Not unofficially only for men.
Breslov minhag is for men only! Rabanem always said it was not a place for women to be for rosh hashana!
New age thing handful of women decided they belong together with 100.000 men

A friend of mine went once and felt uncomfortable from „all the testosterone“.

I am 100% sure the woman I know that went asked her rav. A women in her late 60s, very charedi. She didnt just say, hey Im going and went. She put a lot of thought and daas torah into it (thats the community she is from).
And she never stayed among all the men. She found an apartment away from the swarms.

I actually don't think it's right for a woman to go, the men who are going are not expecting to see women around. Imagine thousand of women make a convention and a couple of men decide to tag along with their wives. Not ok. Go another time of the year with him.

Yes- I second this. I have family and friends who are Breslov and they do not appreciate women who are going on R”H. There is another time women go there together.

In fact my husband mentioned wanting me to go with him one year when he was there in Uman for RH and he got nice but very strong tochacha that it’s 100% not allowed amongst the Breslov kehillah. I guess if your not breslov you can go but why would you go to Uman on RH then?

I think it’s just derech eretz not to go on RH and to go another time.

I didn't question anyone who goes.
I'm commenting on the "unofficially only for men". Rosh hashana in uman is officially only for men according to breslov mesorah/minhag/tradition/ psak. Call it what you want. Anyone can do what they want with or without daas torah.
but yes uman is officially for men on rosh hashana
...if women go other times during year you can really enjoy 😉
