DOVER, DE (March 18) – Firefly Music Festival announced today that single day general passes will not be available for the 2015 installment. An increased demand for the 4-day pass is driving the festival to the sold out mark of 90,000 attendees, due to music fans from around the world wanting to experience the full Firefly weekend.
“We’ve seen an unprecedented increase each year since Firefly’s inaugural 2012 festival derived from our success in multiple areas,” said Greg Bostrom, Director of Firefly Music Festival. “This, in turn, eliminated our ability to offer single day general admission passes in 2015 as we plan to welcome 90,000 attendees, which will bring us to capacity this year.”
Four-day weekend passes are currently still on sale with limited quantities remaining at the Regular general admission price of $299. The price is expected to jump to the Encore price of $329 soon as the Regular price nears sell out.
“Firefly is about more than just the music. It’s about the passionate group of people who join us each year, the amazing environment of The Woodlands, the festival attractions, evenings in the campgrounds, all in addition to the diversity of music and talent that we’ve curated across all the days,” said Tad Jenkins, VP of Customer Experience at Firefly Music Festival and Red Frog Events. “This is best experienced across the full weekend and, each year, we get excited to provide these fans the unforgettable summer moments they look forward to at The Woodlands.”
