Telluride Bluegrass: NightGrass Lottery

05 Apr Telluride Bluegrass: NightGrass Lottery

Planet Bluegrass is excited to announce the lineup for the late-night indoor shows held June 17-21 at several venues in Telluride and Mountain Village during the 42nd Annual Telluride Bluegrass Festival. This year’s lineup includes intimate performances from Yonder Mountain String Band, Leftover Salmon, Punch Brothers, Greensky Bluegrass, Trampled By Turtles, Lake Street Dive, Steep Canyon Rangers, Fruition, and more.

The 2015 NightGrass schedule includes shows at the historic Sheridan Opera House, the historic Swede-Finn Hall, and the Palm Theatre, all within walking distance of the Town Park festival grounds or served by a free shuttle.  And the Telluride Mountain Village Conference Center, reached via a free gondola ride from Telluride,will host Yonder Mountain String Band’s 14th Annual Bluegrass Kick-Off Party on the Wednesday before the Festival.

Due to the anticipated high-demand, tickets for *all* of these shows will be sold via an online lottery open for 2 days – Tuesday, April 14 thru Wednesday, April 15 at 11:59pm MDT.

Any tickets that remain after this lottery will be sold beginning at 9 a.m. MDT on Thursday, April 23 at 800-624-2422 or online at shop.bluegrass.com.  Lottery entrants will be notified of the status of their entry by Wednesday, April 22.

The 2015 NightGrass lottery will follow the same rules as last year:

– Tickets for *all* shows, including the larger Palm Theatre and Telluride Conference Center venues, will be sold via the online lottery.

– Entrants in the lottery may win tickets to at most one show per day. The online lottery form will allow each entrant to request tickets to 1-3 shows per night and prioritize them as their 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choice for each day.

– Festivarians may submit 1 lottery entry per credit card, and up to 2 entries per billing address. Festivarians who violate this rule will have all their entries disqualified.

– As with past years, there will be a limit of 2 tickets for each show at the Sheridan Opera House and Swede-Finn Hall, and 4 tickets for each show at the Palm Theatre or Telluride Conference Center.

Tickets to NightGrass shows are completely separate from Telluride Bluegrass Festival tickets.  All NightGrass tickets are non-refundable. Planet Bluegrass charges no service fees for any tickets.
