Can I Buy Tickets at the Gate?
While tickets will be available for purchase at the gate for $50/person, pre-purchasing tickets helps us out in a big way. It ensures that food and craft vendors have enough supplies to support your needs, and enables us to plan for sufficient personnel on site to make sure things run smoothly. It also helps us at the gate get folks checked in quickly -- which means getting you in the fairgrounds and pickin' some mean bluegrass without any delay. |
What is the Refund Policy?
If you request a refund for any reason by September 9, 2022, you will be issued a full refund. Refund requests between September 10 - 16, 2022 will be granted credit for the 2023 festival, rather than refunded. And if you find you will be unable to make the festival after September 16, 2022, your ticket payment will be donated to the festival. |
What is the Music Ambassadors Program?
We are introducing a special treat at this year's festival! In addition to playing some killer music on the main stage for you, the musicians in One Button Suit and the Edgar Loudermilk Band are planning to jam with you. Between shows and into the evenings, make welcome these professional musicians into your jam circles for a few tunes. They will be circulating and introducing themselves, and eager for some good ole-fashioned pickin'! Plus they have free Tygh Valley Stickers for you :) |
Can I Arrive Before Friday?
Sure! We will be at the front gates beginning on Wednesday mid-day to check you in. When you arrive, please say hello and get your wristbands for the festival. From there, you can proceed to your reserved RV space -- or can choose an area to get your dry-camping space set up. You will pay the fairgrounds directly for any evenings spent outside of Friday & Saturday night (which are included in your ticket admission prices and/or RV reservation ticket). |
What is the Chair Policy at the Shows?
We encourage patrons to bring their own chairs. Feel free to set up your chair at the main stage to keep your spot reserved. If you are not sitting in your chair, it is open for someone to sit in, but they must move to another chair once you arrive at the stage. It is a good idea to have your name on chairs somewhere, as lots of chairs look alike. We want to make sure your chair goes home with you and not with someone else! Do you offer One-Day Passes?
While we don't offer a single-day pass, we encourage you to join us on Saturday if you can only make one day -- the schedule geared to entertain. Passes are $45 if purchased ahead, or $50 at the gate. If you arrive only for Sunday's morning show, admission is free. We've Heard there are Construction Workers at the Fairgrounds. What's the Deal?
Yes, there are long-term residents on site at Wasco County Fairgrounds. We have spoken with quite a few of them, and they are excited for the festival. We are providing each with sets of earplugs, too, as a courtesy. We are looking forward to welcoming these new people into the bluegrass community -- a great opportunity for those who might otherwise not have gotten a chance to experience inclusion into such a tight-knit musical family. |
What is the Pet Policy?
You are welcome to bring your dogs to enjoy the music, but they must remain on a leash when outdoors. We ask you to also please clean up after your pet to keep the fairgrounds clean. Are there Flushing Toilets?
Yes, there are two-main restroom facilities located at the Fairgrounds with proper plumbing. Each has a separate men/women entrance, opening up to plenty of flushing toilet stall. Each facility also has a number of coin-operated showers, too. |
