More On Ticketing
Early Tickets are deeply discounted. They are your best deal, but sales end April 1, 2019. We use Brown Paper Tickets for
online sales. You can choose to have your tickets available at the Gate, you can have your tickets delivered to your mailing
address or print them at home. You can also buy your tickets in person at the Angel Fire Visitor Center. Credit cards and PayPal accepted.
There are a limited number of tickets available
Total number of patrons is limited this year to 1000, so the Festival will likely sell out. We advise you to buy your tickets online
here or at the Shuter Library, the Chamber of Commerce, or the Visitors Center. ​
