Buying Tickets to Rootwire
You may purchase tickets to the event by clicking here: TICKETS
ALL Tickets Sales are Final. No-Refunds. No-Exchanges
If you are no longer able to attend the event after purchasing a pass, your best option is to try and sell it to a friend or on StubHub.com or another similar ticketing resale site. We will NOT be able to help in any way.
Gates will open at noon on Thursday, July 20, 2017.
- There will be no fee charged for leaving and returning to the festival; however, we strongly discourage doing so and a pass that must be acquired at the gate will be required for re-entry, wrist bands will be checked upon return, you will have to wait in line just like everyone else if there is a line, and your car will be searched again just like everyone else. If you decide to leave without the pass (unless it is deemed an emergency by our Front Gate Coordinator) your wristbands will become invalid and you will need to purchase another one before you are allowed back in.
- The event venue, Wisteria Campground, where Rootwire 2K17 will be held can accommodate 6-8,000 attendees, but, to keep the festival comfortably spacious and socially intimate, ticket sales will be cut off when they reach 5,000.
