PrintPass is the ability to print your own tickets on your own time from your own computer. No waiting for the UPS guy or the mail guy, get your tickets quickly and at your own convenience. And most importantly, it's an affordable shipping option! It's the most environmentally friendly delivery method also.

Bring your print at home ticket to the box office. All print at home tickets will be scanned and exchanged for a wristband.

Avoid busy phone lines and order online! Last year the VIP 3-Day passes sold out in fifteen minutes and the Early Bird 3-Day passes sold out in two hours - we expect these tickets to go just as fast, if not faster, this year. Also, if a ticket says it is sold out online then this means it is sold out - we do not hold a certain amount of tickets for phone orders.

VIP 3-Day passes and Early Bird 3-Day passes are limited to 10 per customer. If you are ordering for friends or for your group, please plan accordingly.

Campground Vehicle, Campground RV, and Coonskin RV passes will be available for purchase online - since there are only a handful of each of these passes available we are limiting them to 1 per customer.

All tickets are non-refundable and non-replaceable. Please keep them in a safe place and remember to bring them with you to the festival. Each ticket holder must be present when exchanging tickets for wristbands at the Festival Box Office. An individual will not be able to receive wristbands for other ticket holders not present.

Please bring a Photo I.D.

Juke Joint Passes: $25 per night*
Friday and Saturday
After the festival ends in Town Park, we continue the music at 10PM on Friday and Saturday night at the “juke joints", located in various venues in Telluride and Mountain Village. If you purchase a juke joint pass it allows you to bounce around to all the juke joints for that night. Be aware, however, that a juke joint pass does not guarantee that you will get into the show of your choice, but it does guarantee that you will get into one of the juke joints – it all depends on the capacity of each venue. As they fill up, we direct you to which juke joints are not full. As the night goes on, the crowds at the juke joints tend to rotate, so even if you can't catch the start of the band you want to see, there's a good chance you can catch the last half of their show. So, if there is one particular band you really want to see, get in line early for the show! Doors open at 9:45PM.
PrintPass option available.

Single Day Tickets and Fais Do Do Tickets on sale Tuesday, July 1st, 2008.

Upgrade your Telluride Blues & Brews Festival ticket to a “Be Green Ticket” for only $2.50.
Telluride Blues & Brews Festival, Green Mountain Energy Company, and Sustainable Waves are pleased to give festival goers the opportunity to “green up” their festival experience by upgrading to a “Be Green Ticket.” When you upgrade to a Be Green Ticket for $2.50, Green Mountain Energy Company will green-up your festival experience by providing, on your behalf, 250 kWh of renewable energy made from sources like wind and bio-energy. By purchasing a Be Green Ticket, you can help offset an estimated 341 lbs of carbon dioxide created by activities like driving your car to the festival.

The consensus among our world's climate scientists concludes that carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from human activities like electricity production and transportation are indisputably the leading cause of global warming. Sustainable Waves - powered by Green Mountain Energy Company is rippling throughout the entertainment industry creating some simple effective ways for all of us to participate in the effort to do something to address this growing threat.

One of the ways you can offset your carbon footprint is by purchasing renewable energy credits (RECs). RECs are an innovative means to offset the carbon emissions impact on the environment associated with activities like electricity consumption. Each Be Green Ticket will include with it the environmental attributes of 250 kWh of electricity produced using renewable resources, such as wind, solar, or bio-energy. The generation of electricity from cleaner renewable energy sources displaces electricity that might otherwise come from burning polluting fossil fuels like coal and oil. It is in this way that the purchase of renewable energy helps offset conventional electricity generation and the associated emissions that contribute to global warming. By putting dollars behind these new renewable sources of energy, you help bring more of them online, which means less energy needs to be generated using dirty fossil fuels. The net result? Carbon offsets that reduce your carbon footprint.

Upgrade to a Be Green Ticket for the Telluride Blues & Brews Festival and offset some of your environmental impact!
