Common Questions
When do tickets go on sale?
Tickets for the 2010 Twin Peaks Festival go on sale starting February 1st.
How much do tickets cost?
The price of your 2010 Festival ticket will vary depending on when you purchase it and which type you select. The tickets are as follows:
- Early-Bird Tickets (February 1st - March 31st): $200 with bus tour, $180 without bus tour
- Regular Tickets (April 1st - May 31st): $220 with bus tour, $200 without bus tour
- Late Tickets (June 1st - July 15th): $240 with bus tour, $220 without bus tour
Please remember that all ticket sales are final. No refunds will be given. However, if you are unable to use the festival ticket you have paid for, we have options for reselling your ticket to another interested fan. Contact one of the organizers for more info.
Will I receive physical tickets or is there a "will call"?
We did away with physical tickets a number of years ago to make it easier on attendees (one less thing to worry about when traveling!) as well as eliminate the administrative time and cost of printing and mailing paper tickets. All you will need to do is show up to the sign-in on Friday, August 6th with a photo ID and we will have your name on a master list. You'll receive your name tag and welcome packet, and voilá! You're all set. If you are concerned that you may still have a problem, you can always print out your PayPal transaction receipt and bring it with you.
What does my ticket get me?
If you purchase a non-bus tour Festival ticket, you are entitled to the following:
- Entry to all events listed in the festival Schedule
- Dinner and unlimited beverages at Saturday evening’s event
- Lunch, cherry pie, and unlimited (non-alcoholic) beverages at Sunday’s farewell picnic
- Donuts and bottomless coffee at the sign-in
- Inclusion in all festival contests, raffles, and door prizes
- Access to this year’s celebrity guests during scheduled events*
If you purchase a Festival ticket with bus tour, you are entitled to all of the above, plus the bus tour of Twin Peaks filming locations within Snoqualmie Valley.
Please note: The organizers cannot guarantee that all celebrities will be present at all events during the festival. Due to prior work obligations, some celebrities may arrive late or leave early. We will do our best to let you know of these situations ahead of time so that you can plan your celebrity-meeting accordingly.
What does my ticket NOT get me?
Your ticket does not include transportation to and/or from any festival events. It also does not include any guarantee of free merchandise or discounts at local eating establishments.
Yikes! Why is the ticket price so high? It hardly seems worth it!
We’re glad you’ve asked this question! Every penny paid into the tickets covers everything for the festival, in case any of you are wondering if us organizers are using it to pay ourselves or our expenses. In fact, we usually end up kicking in several thousand dollars of our own money to cover the difference between ticket sales and actual fest costs.
What are the fest costs, you ask?
- rental of the event hall for the Saturday night dinner
- rental of the Grange hall for Friday and Saturday activities
- catering for Saturday night dinner and Sunday picnic (including cherry pies)
- donuts and coffee during sign in
- beverages provided throughout the fest (soda, water, beer, wine)
- paper goods (plates, napkins, fest packets, name tags, etc)
- prizes
- sound equipment for Saturday night dinner
- movie tickets for movie night
- bus rental for bus tour ($20 per person, only charged to those who buy a bus tour ticket)
And the biggest part...
- THE CELEBRITIES
No, the celebrities do not get paid a per diem or a flat rate. They give their time very graciously, and in return we pay for their airfare, their hotel, their meals, and their transportation.
