I’m worried tickets will be sold out when I come in person. Aren’t I supposed to get my tickets in advance?

Since ticket times may sell out, we reserve space for Access Pass participants who still need to register their accounts with us.

Why are the Access Pass tickets greyed out when signed in to my Newfields account?

If the tickets are greyed out and you can’t select the Access Pass tickets, your Newfields account either needs to be set up or has expired after the 12-month period and needs to be renewed. To set up an account for the first time, you will need to add your Access Pass to your Newfields account in person, presenting both ID and proof of a valid Access Pass. If you need to renew, email info@discovernewfields.org a photo of your Access Pass and we will update your Newfields account for you.

My Access Pass hasn’t expired. Why has it expired on my Newfields account?

Your Newfields account is valid for 12 months starting on the day you link your Access Pass to it. Your Newfields account must be updated after 12 months with a valid Access Pass.

How many tickets can I get with my Access Pass?

Each Access Pass covers two adults and unlimited youth under the age of 21 in the same household.
