Answer:All events are held in Argyle at the Cross Timbers Community Church. Click here for directions.
Question:Will I be allowed to bring my own food and drinks into the concert area?
Answer:We are sorry, but no outside food and drinks will be allowed into the concert area.  This is an indoors event and the building needs to be kept clean.  You can leave your food and drinks in your car and eat there if you so choose, but there will be a food court set up for your enjoyment.
Question:Do you need a ticket to attend workshops?

No. If you purchased workshops, it will be indicated by the appropriate wristband at the festival.

Question:Are hotel accommodations available?
Answer:

Yes. There are many hotels and motels in the area. However, we recommend staying at our host hotel, Hampton Inn & Suites/Alliance Airport, as they have hosted many of our attendees in the past and allow jamming in the lobby area 24 hours/day unless they receive complaints. Jamming is not allowed in the rooms, only in the public areas. They also provide a special Festival rate.  Check out their link on this website under the “Lodging” link.

Question:Can I purchase tickets in advance?
Answer:

Yes.  Reserved admission and general admission tickets can be purchased in advance online, by mail or by calling our toll-free line. To the extent still available, reserved and general admission tickets will be sold at the door. As space is limited and since we usually sell out well in advance of the Festival, the advance purchase of tickets is advised. It is our policy to sell 2-day tickets before single day tickets go on sale.

Question:Is there any reserved seating?
Answer:Yes, reserved seating is available.  There are also a limited number of general admission tickets available.  Please check "tickets" page for more information." Please also review our "Seating Policy" on this website.
Question:Is "Jamming" allowed?
Answer:Absolutely.  There will be ample space for jamming.  Look for signs for jamming areas. Please check out our "Jamming Policy" on this website.
Question:Is there a charge for parking?
Answer:No.  All events are free to the public except for the concerts and workshops. See our "Parking Policy" on this website.  Our parking lot fills up fast. For the convenience of our patrons, a golf cart shuttle service is provided free of charge.
Question:Is it permissible to bring chairs into the concert hall?
Answer:Generally no.  There is plenty of seating available and the chairs are very comfortable.  However, there is a limited amount of space at the rear of the concert hall where personal seating could be placed for medical or other appropriate reasons.
Question:What is the weather like in Argyle in early March?
Answer:The weather can vary greatly at this time of year. While the Festival is indoors, we suggest bringing a sweater and rain gear.  The main stage auditorium is set at a constant temperature of approximately 72 degrees.  Some attendees think it is too cold, others think it is too hot.  Consequently, please dress according to your own personal comfort zone.
Question:What types of food are available?
Answer:All of our food vendors are local non-profit organizations that provide food as a means of raising funds for their organizations.  There is a wide selection to choose from. A number of restaurants are also located nearby.
Question: Is there a place where I can check my instrument while at the Festival?
Answer: Yes. We have a complimentary instrument check room adjacent to the lobby for the convenience of our patrons. We are not responsible for instruments left unattended in vehicles or elsewhere on Festival premises. Please review our Instrument Check Policy on this website.

The festival will not have Arts and Craft Vendors this year.
