New in 2025:

• New season pass level: We’ve combined the former Director and Founder levels into a single new Crew level season pass. Perfect for larger families or groups who love to attend Festival events with their entire crew! Enjoy double the number of season pass buttons as the Family level, an extra free table reservation, and a free blanket reservation.

• Discounted or Free Chair Rentals: Instead of one and two free chair rentals, respectively, for the entire season followed by full price rentals after that, Individual and Partner-level passholders now receive 50% of all chair rentals all season long. Family and Crew-level passholders still receive free chair rentals all season long, up to 4 or 8 per show, respectively.

• Chowder Festival tickets: In a departure from past years, tickets to this popular Arts Festival fundraiser will now be offered to passholders on a limited buy one, get one free (BOGO) basis. Individual- and Partner-level passholders may obtain one free ticket with the purchase of a full price, i.e. $20, single ticket. Family-level passholders may obtain up to two free tickets with the purchase of two tickets. Passholders at the new Crew-level may obtain up to four free tickets with the purchase of an equal number of full price, i.e. $20, tickets.

It is no longer feasible for us to offer entirely free tickets to passholders for a few reasons: 

1. Chowder Festival one of the largest fundraisers of the year for the Arts Festival.
2. 30% of “free” tickets reserved by passholders in previous years have gone unused costing the Festival over $3,000 in crucial lost revenue.
3. Our restaurant partners need to know our maximum number of attendees so they can bring the appropriate amount of chowder and we can ensure we don’t run out!

Snag Early Bird 2024 prices now through 12/31.

** Plus if you buy your passes before December 31, you’ll be entered to win an iPad mini 6th Gen 64GB in Space Gray valued at $399.95 courtesy of our friends at MacEdge!

Why be a Season Passholder? 

Your Season Pass guarantees* entry to all 80+ Festival events including concerts, performances of the musical, movie nights, and BOGO tickets to special events like the Chowder Festival, with the exception of changing venues due to inclement weather. 

As a passholder, you’ll be a Festival VIP and get perks like 10% off all food and drink at The Prop, plus free t-shirt(s) and other fun benefits like free chair rentals.

* In the event that a show must be moved to an alternate venue due to rain, entry can no longer be guaranteed, even to season passholders. All indoor venues have a limited capacity, unlike the park, and generate additional costs for the Arts Festival. While we regret ever having to limit entry, or to require the typically suggested donation, that is sometimes necessary in lieu of the outright cancellation of a show.

By purchasing a Season Pass, you’ll be making your gate donation in advance. No no need to bother with cash or a card at the gate, just breeze on through sporting your Season Pass Button.

All Festival events are 100% accessible to everyone. So while we do ask for an optional suggested donation at the gate, we do not sell tickets to any of our performances. 

This is where Season Passes come in! 

Season Pass sales are essential to making the magic of the Festival possible. By purchasing a Season Pass in advance you help cover integral expenses and keep the Festival truly accessible for everyone in our community.
