I'm flying into Denver and renting a car. First time for me.
I have town park tickets. What do I do with my car if I can't get it into town?
Are there special car passes to get?

Depending on when you arrive you may approach a barricade as you enter town - this barricade usually goes up around Wednesday before the festival begins. You will show the barricade attendants your TP tickets and they will mark your windshield (max an hour) and let you pass into town. You'll drive to Town Park and a Planet Bluegrass/TP "security" person may also mark your windshield with another time and they will let you drive to a spot where you can unload/load your stuff.

After that you most likely you will be directed to go to Mountain Village (a few miles away and connected by a gondola) where you will park your car.

Have you tried the Ride Share board to get a ride from Denver? It's a shame to drive solo - certainly possible you either get a ride with someone else or rent the car and also give someone a ride down.

I mean, you can't list to all that Phish by yourself, can you?  Wink

Speaking of Phish, gotta put in the lottery for those SF shows!

Im not driving alone. I'm flying in from Canada. Meeting my Partner who is flying in from San Fran and we are driving from Denver. Meeting up with 2 friends flying into Montrose from Australia.

I was just in San Fran and Santa Cruz. Hit 3 Terrapin Crossroads shows in San Rafael, Hot Buttered rum too. Im in the bay area often.

We can't do San Fran. But will do Long Beach.

I'm also looking for 2 tickets for Yonder Nightgrass. Have 2 Greensky to trade. As wellas
some Pollacks from Phish tour last summer.

Did you see Yonder at the Fillmore this weekend?

Yes, saw Yonder Friday night at The Fillmore. Very sweet show.

Re: your Nightgrass needs, you've may already figured this out but there is a separate ticket exchange board that will help you out with those needs.
