Hello and Happy Holidays from all of us at the GrassRoots Festival!
Just a quick note to let you know a couple of pertinent items of information.
First up, the 2011 festival dates will be July 21-24, so make sure you put in for that vacation time!
Secondly, tickets are available starting on Thanksgiving Day (November 25), for the Holiday Special price of $75 for a four-day pass. Get them online once you've finished your tofurkey! They'll be on sale through February 1 at that price. Camping and single-day passes will, as always, go on sale February 14. The band list will be announced in the Spring. All of this information, and more, are available at the GrassRoots Website Ticket Page.
We'll see you when it's warm again!

Big News: New Camping Area!
Exciting news, campers! GrassRoots has just leased several acres adjacent to the fairgrounds to be used for camping during the festival this year. We're calling it "Next-Door Camping," and it can be accessed from your vehicle via Rabbit Run Road, right near the back gate. There is a walking path from Next-Door Camping directly into the festival site.
Next-Door Camping will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis, and will not be available in advance. Sites will cost $135 per vehicle for the weekend, which includes Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights. There is no daily rate for camping in this area, just the flat rate of $135. The area will open for camping at noon on Thursday, July 22. It is a primitive camping area, with no electric or water hook-ups. Portable bathrooms will be available, but there are no shower facilities in the Next-Door area.
Next-Door Camping passes can be paid for with CASH ONLY -- please come prepared!
IF YOU HAVE ALREADY ORDERED OFF-SITE CAMPING: If you've ordered Off-Site Camping (for $70), you can "upgrade" your ticket upon arrival. Just come to the Next-Door Camping area with your ticket in hand, and you can pay the difference (CASH ONLY) of $65.
The traditional Off-Site Camping area will still function as usual at the Agard Road lot. Prices for that area are $70 in advance (order by July 9) or $80 on the day of the festival.
Please note that this is the first time we've offered this camping option, and it's all happening very quickly. In order to make things run as smoothly as possible, please be sure to follow the rules as we've laid them out, and if you have specific questions, get in touch in advance at info@grassrootsfest.org or at 607-387-5098.
See you in a few weeks!

2010 Onsite Camping Passes and Early Bird Tickets Available Now!
Wait, seriously? Does that mean that it's going to be Spring soon?
Yes, it's true. 2010 Camping Passes (both Onsite and Offsite) are now available, and if you're looking to buy one, there's no time like the present. No, really... they're going like hotcakes and they'll be gone before you know it. (We are aware that there was a computer glitch in the wee hours of the morning, but it has been fixed and all should be up and a-runnin' now.) The office will be staffed during normal business hours from here on through the festival, so if you'd like to call and order tickets over the phone, 607-387-5098 is the number you're looking for. Order tickets and camping here!
Visit the Camping Page on our website for a couple of slightly new and altered policies (nothing huge, mostly pre-festival parking issues).
And stay tuned for lineup announcements and other thrilling info -- we've got tricks up our sleeve that you won't believe for the 20th annual festival. As always, feel free to leave a comment with suggestions, or email us via this form.
We can't wait for this summer (for so many reasons)... we'll see you then!
