| Camping begins at 8:30 a.m. Fri. June 27, and ends at 12 noon on Mon. June 30- Camping spots are on a first-come, first-serve basis. There will be some designated areas, such as: family camp, quiet camp, RV camp, 'no vehicle' camp area, the usual 'up most of the night' camp, and a camping area near the music bowl for those with physical disabilities that require a closer proximity to the main area. There are no electrical hook-ups, no individual campfires are allowed, fresh water is available, and a limited, beautiful wooden outdoor shower facility will be available. All toilet facilities are porta-potties. |
| Day Only Parking-No Charge |
| Ticket Refund Policy: Ticket refunds will not be issued after May 15, 2008. The return policy will subtract all applicable service fees plus a $10 handling fee per adult ticket. Tickets being returned for refund by mail must be postmarked no later than May 15, 2008 and sent to the Sebastopol Community Center P.O. Box 2028 Sebastopol, Ca. 95473. |
| Ticket Pricing Breakdown: Full Festival Passes provide the festival attendees with 3 days on the festival grounds; complete with access to the main music bowl and 3 nights camping onsite. There are no discounts for folks staying offsite in hotels, at friends, etc. The best purchase is the Full Festival Pass. If you broke it down for each individual day you would wind up spending more. A Weekend Pass provides the festival attendee 2 days on the festival grounds (with camping accessibility on Sat. & Sun. nights) starting on the morning of Sat. the 28th. If you would like to arrive on Fri. night the 27th and camp onsite then you need to purchase a Full Festival Pass. There is no Festival Pass that covers Fri. & Sat., with 2 nights camping on those particular nights. You may purchase individual Day Passes in advance and individual night camping tickets at the Festival gate when you arrive. There are no discounts for not camping Sun. night with your Full Festival or Weekend Pass. An individual Day Pass does not allow for camping on the same night as the day you would be attending. Day Pass ticket holders will park in the Day parking area and will not be allowed to camp there, or in their car, either. A Day Pass will entitle the ticket holder to be on the grounds, including the main music bowl for the particular day stated on the ticket only. The ticket holder may also attend any performances or workshops at the Arlo Hagler Stage and Revival Tent. |
| Pet policy: No pets; except for assistance animals will be permitted. Owner may be asked for physician's verification of assistance need & must have animal properly restrained. McBride's (in Willits) no longer boards dogs. For possible boarding situations you can either try Blue Ribbon Kennel (ph.# - 707-485-8454) or Best In Show (ph.# 707-463-8400). |
