Why to sign up for events on SCHED?
  • To save your ’dream schedule’ of all your most anticipated events
  • To let festival organizers and attendees know which events will be popular and allow for better coordination or anticipation of when to arrive to the event venue to get in the Queue line
  • To allow festival organizers to update you with any changes

FAQs:

Does signing up on SCHED save my spot in line for events?

No. This just allows our Pass Holder attendees to make a list of events of what they WOULD LIKE to attend. ALL PASS HOLDERS MUST show up to the event venue and wait in the Queue line to be admitted. For Special Events - YOU MUST PURCHASE YOUR TICKET ON EVENTBRITE TO GAIN ADMITTANCE TO THE SPECIAL EVENT.

How does the Queue line work?

One hour before each event is scheduled to begin, Queue cards will be handed out to Pass Holders until all Queue cards are gone (ie. event spots have been spoken for). Fifteen minutes before the event is scheduled to begin, Queue card holders with line up in order and be admitted into the venue ten minutes before the event begins. 

Can Non-Pass Holders retrieve a Queue card for events?

No. To honor our Pass Holders, all Non-Pass Holders wishing to buy a ticket at the door will wait in a separate line and be only admitted after the Queue Line has been admitted, and only if there is still space available.
Sunday, August 18 • 11:30am - 12:30pm
Closing Ceremonies

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

The closing ceremony is a time to reflect on the festival and say goodbye to one another.

There will be a few activities after the closing cermony, but we wanted to give some of our day travelers the ability to get on the road early.
