...finding Warner Field/Town Park tickets?   


IF after searching Craigslist and this forum constantly doesn't find you the 2 Warner Field or Town Park camping tickets you really wanted, where would you suggest the next best camping spot be for some fun loving 24 year olds?

I am new to TBF and was really hoping to find those camping tickets, but if it doesn't happen I was hoping to get some advice on the other options... We love meeting new people, partying, and enjoying the festival atmosphere and so I'm hoping this can still be done outside of those two spots?

I think the Mary E. Ilium camp looks cool since it seems so outdoorsy, but would like to get others' input. Also just wondering if there is a certain date that we should book another camping spot by or if we don't really have to worry about others selling out.

Appreciate the help, thanks!

Happy TBF!

Don't give up on CL just yet- those tickets will start to pop up the closer we get to T-ride, and people realize they can't go... and I mean the kind of good festivarians who sell them for face value.  Any of the various Colorado craigslist pages are pretty good places to look come late May.

There really is not a bad place to camp for this FESTIVVVAAALLL!!!. If you want to cover yourself for camping do go ahead and pick a campground and know that you are more than welcome in Town Park for any and all Pre-Fest activities. It's open to all prior to the start of FESTIVVVAAALLL!!! on Thursday morning. In addition, the "Everyone's Birthday Party" is held at Smuggler's Restaurant in the town of Telluride, a public restaurant.

Please remember that YOU DO NEED a 4 Day FESTIVVVAAALLL!!! Pass if you are camping in areas other than Town Park or Warner.

I had just decided I would camp with new folks at one of the other campgrounds when a ticket turned up for me. If mine falls through you may just see me down the road when you pull in to camp. Believe me, it's tons better that not going to FESTIVVVAAALLL!!! at all!

If a banjo player picks in the woods, and no one is there to hear him.... is he still making an awful lot of noise?
