We’ve tried to keep our budget as low as possible to keep things affordable.
This is a labour of love for many of the organizers, performers, workshop leaders, and administration team who are working year-round on the festival. We do our best to compensate our talent as well as possible, but note that all parties are volunteering many hours to make this event as affordable as possible. We are deeply grateful for all of our volunteers and community members who make the magic happen!!
If you are able to purchase a ticket at a higher tier price, this leaves lower tier tickets available for lower income folks and helps to make the festival more sustainable. Many thanks!
Applications for work-trade spots are now closed for 2025. Thanks for your interest! Those who are accepted will be notified by email and given a discount code to apply to the purchase of their tickets.
Please note that there is no children-specific programming, and you are responsible for your children at all times.
