Exactly. Or if people who already have tickets are mad about the protocols, I'll gladly take their tickets at a discount

    For those that are keen on volunteering at the festival to get a free 2-day pass (and I'm assuming free parking as well), here's the website to sign-up:

    https://pilgrimagefestival.com/the-festival/volunteer

    Their FAQ says "As you fill out the application, you will be able to select the top performances you would like to see. We will do our best to schedule around these time slots, especially the top choice, but please note that due to festival needs this may not always be possible." You also have to actually purchase the 2-day pass beforehand (through the specific volunteer website) and then once their system has confirmed that you've met your volunteer commitment, they will reimburse you the cost of the pass.

    They announced the time slots today. DMB closes the show 6:30-8:30pm CT.

    I'm actually very happy it ends earlier. We didn't know how we were going to find a babysitter on a school night if the show went past 11 o'clock.

    I haven't seen anything yet. Someone earlier in this thread emailed the festival's ticket order support inbox a number of months back, and got a response that they would be selling single day passes as the festival got closer.

    In the last week I've started emailing their support inbox once every other day or so, asking the same question. I haven't received a response yet. It couldn't hurt for others to start emailing as well...maybe they'll get the hint.

    “ 2-Day GA and VIP passes still available. Single day passes will not be offered. Gates open at 11am on Saturday and 10am on Sunday! Come early and enjoy all the music, food and fun!”

    What a crock.

    They haven't done it every year. One year they even sold out of 2-day tickets.

    Ha well joke’s on them. I just got back from The Gorge and, as nice as it would’ve been to see DMB 30 mins from my house, without a single-day option I won’t be going.

    FYI: folks on FB are having trouble getting interest when attempting to re-sell their 2-day passes for even $100/$150. So keep an eye on the Pilgrimage Fest FB post's replies, and you could snag a 2-day pass for half of face.

    Who knows about parking? It says on-site is sold out now. There are shuttles, but it appears they all leave at 11am each day. What if you can't be there at 11am? Uber I guess?

    Yes you should be able to use uber/lyft/etc. In the "Getting Here" page on the festival website (https://pilgrimagefestival.com/getting-here) there is info on the rideshare location:

    DIRECTIONS FOR RIDE SHARE AND TAXIS: There will be a designated ride share / taxi area at the Factory across the street from the festival. Be sure to tell your driver to take EXIT 67. Please inform your driver that there will be NO ACCESS on Franklin Road and there will be no drop-offs on Mack Hatcher or Franklin Road.

    There is also a map at the bottom of the webpage showing where The Factory is in relation to the festival grounds.

    Updates:

    They've changed the url of the parking/shuttle/rideshare info: https://pilgrimagefestival.com/parking-shuttles

    They've now prominently displayed the COVID protocols: https://pilgrimagefestival.com/the-f.../health-safety

    Fixed that for you. I already have alerts turned on for @TheFestiveOwl on Twitter.

    The only other time I checked out Pilgrimage was in '18 - D&T scheduled for Sunday evening was the draw that time. I had to leave early from the fest on that Saturday to go to my niece's b-day party...in hindsight it was good that I got out of there when I did, or else I would've been stuck in mud for hours on end. And of course Sunday was scrapped. You're right - here's hoping things dry out enough on Thursday & Friday for things to proceed!

    Keep us updated. It has been raining here in Atlanta nonstop since Saturday with more rain coming over the next few days. It looks to cool down temperature wise and the rain goes away for this weekend. Hope the festival site isn't drenched.

    I'm supposed to be going in on Thursday to help my old co-workers set up their tent. I guess I'll find out then what the status is if the grounds don't get destroyed prior.

    Weather Channel app still has 50%+ chance of rain this evening, and that goes up to 90% overnight. But you're right in that Wednesday's forecast looks better than it has previously (now only "slight chance of a rain shower"), and Thu-Fri look dry. Hopefully when you get there on Thursday things are on their way to getting drained out / dried up.

    I don't, but I was coming here to ask this question!

    I have general tickets, but thinking about upgrading if it's worth it... all included food, drinks, a lounge, good stage views, bathrooms. Seems tempting. I haven't found anything about it, except for one FB post where someone wrote that the food was good and it's worth the money.

    It looks and sounds great- i was fortunate enough to be gifted these tickets, the open bar/ food/ and football on TV sounds great for a nice break in the action for music when you want.

    But theres not much photos or people talkin about their experiences with it either.

    I ordered a parking pass and realized that it hasn't shipped yet. Am I alone in that? Or do they not do physical passes for on-site parking?

    https://pilgrimagefestival.frontgate...z8hy1ggst70t7l

    "Advance Parking passes are good for both days of the festival. Passes will be shipped to patrons about 4 weeks from the festival."

    https://pilgrimagefestival.zendesk.c...-pick-that-up-

    "On site and off site parking passes that were ordered in advance will arrive in the mail in an order separate from your wristbands."


    From the looks of these two items on their site, you should get a physical pass in the mail. That second link (zendesk) also has a couple of new comments from the past week about people also not having received their parking pass yet...and someone just received their pass late last week...so perhaps some are still being mailed out. You can try emailing their support inbox order-support (at) frontgatetickets (dot) com but from my own experience I wouldn't expect a timely response; I emailed them Aug. 27 asking about availability of single-day passes and they only just responded to me (with a no) on Sept. 19.

    If you don't get the pass by tomorrow, and you're still going on Thursday to help your old co-workers set up, maybe you can hunt around and find an actual person to talk to on-site about the issue?
