Are you a PERFORMER OR VOLUNTEER? Festival Performers and Volunteers (meeting sufficient minimum work hours) get admission pass(es). No need to purchase tickets here if you are in either category – see your committee contact.
As an Advance Ticket purchaser, you get the best Festival check-in process! Arriving at the Festival, look for the “Will-Call” signs in the Festival lobby. There’s no need for you to wait in line behind people who are purchasing tickets! Glide on up to the table and mention you’ve got advance purchases to pick up. Bring your ID or PayPal receipt or NEFFA Advance Sale confirmation email as proof of purchase – we’re flexible! Be amazed by the smoothness and efficiency with which the volunteer on duty will hand you your tickets. In no time, you’ll be on your way to enjoy our Festival!

How Festival Advance Ticketing Works
We use PayPal for our ticket shopping cart and payment processing (NOTE: you can use a debit or credit card without a PayPal account in the U.S. and most other countries – you don’t have to have a PayPal account to purchase tickets.)
Your tickets will be mailed to you using the physical address provided to us by PayPal. If that address is not the correct place to send the tickets, please send email to treasurer@neffa.org with instructions. Tickets purchased in the week before the Festival will be held at the Ticket table in the Festival lobby.
Instructions:
- Click on either the General Admission or NEFFA Member Tickets button above. You’ll be adding tickets to a shopping cart, so you can select items from both pages if needed.
- Select the ticket type you need (using the dropdown to specify the correct age category) and click “Add to Cart”. This will open up a new browser tab, where you can adjust the QUANTITY if needed.
- If you need to purchase different ticket types, go back to the ticket page, choose the next ticket type and click “Add to Cart” again. You will now see both (or all) ticket types that you have selected in your shopping cart, and you can adjust the quantity for any of them. Repeat as needed.
- When your cart contains all the tickets you need, you can finish your purchase from the cart.
NOTE: Children (age 0-8) are free with an Adult’s admission, so no ticket is required.
