Hi all, this is the year I am really, really hoping to get tickets, asking all friends to help! So far, I have signed up for the NFF newsletter, downloaded the DICE app, and made sure that my Apple Pay info is loaded (couldn’t find a way to put my credit card information on there before hand, would love to know if anybody knows how to do this?).
If I keep checking the newsletter, they will let us know when the tickets are going on sale ahead of time, right? I.e. “tickets will go on sale next Monday, February 1 at 8 AM” or whatever
I am asking any friends who are willing to help to take those same steps and I will keep them updated right before they go on sale. Anything else I should do to increase my chances of getting tickets?
Thanks so much.
I usually go with just one friend but I want to get tickets for family this year since they are interested. Not sure exactly who will be available and when, so my plan is to get 4 tickets for each day and give to whoever wants to come with me. Would it be better to get 2-day passes or to get all individual passes for each day? I will be going either way, so whoever comes with me will be under my name and my tickets I'm thinking. Would that matter? It doesn't seem like the prices are much different so I may go for single passes to be safe. Curious to hear what others have done in the past for the most flexibility.
yall think bob dylan will go to the folk fest this year? -newporter who will kill myself if i miss it
I would like to try and get tickets for NFF 2025. I've never been (and would love to go)but seems like getting tickets is difficult. When do tickets usually go on sale? Is there any particular strategies in getting tickets? Is one type of ticket easier to get than others, etc? Any help appreciated!
If anyone sees this, could you please comment a few band/singer names of people you like! Trying to expand music palette and I trust the music taste of folk festival people.
My wife and I will remember our Newport weekend forever. We're hooked and can't wait to return.
Everyday we move closer towards a Folk Malone performance in Newport /j
… Just a dream. Carry on.
Went Friday only and had an absolutely amazing time. Loved the community vibe, friendly atmosphere for all ages. So many great performances, for me Allison Russell was incredible. Will try to make all 3 days next year.
Hi! I have on sunday jazz student ticket available! selling for list price, ready to transfer on dice
Hi, unfortunately i’m not able to make it to Jazz today so I have a student ticket and car pass available
I need to replace my innertube but I'm supposed to volunteer for jazz fest this weekend and was wondering if they did maintenance like that at the fest. We biked to the folk fest last weekend and saw someone doing maintenance on a bike under the pop up but wasn't sure what exactly was going on.
$286 $84
Hi! Very regrettably(!), my partner and I can no longer make the Newport Jazz Festival and need to recoup our costs — selling for $300 each.
The tickets have been on the waitlist for a few days but haven't moved yet, which is why I'm here—we would take them off the waitlist to get this done.
Since we bought them separately we can sell them together or to 2 separate folks. Please PM if interested!
Thank you to the person who handed my wife a NFF painted penny at the beer garden in the Quad.
My wife was pumping and this woman handed her a penny painted with the NFF logo and said she too was pumping at her first NFF years ago.
My wife’s father passed away last year and she believes that when she finds pennies and dimes, it is a sign her father is looking after her.
This was just one of the many moments that made this festival so magical.
The moment I do, it'll sink in that it's over and real life is here. I feel like a kid post-summer camp. My wife and I played to a bunch of strangers who responded like they've been fans for years. What a magical moment in time for us. If you happened to see us play, thank you. Our set was the exact same time as Bertha so to have anyone watch us was a miracle. Thank you if you were one of those; the support was palpable.
