Red Ants Pants weekend passes are $135 in advance and $150 at the gate, while single day passes are $55 in advance and $60 at the gate. A limited number of VIP weekend passes are available for $500 — shade, seating, a great view and refreshments! Kids 12 and under are FREE for the music and camping when accompanied by an adult.
Camping passes are an additional $25 per person for the entire weekend and are required for anyone camping in the Festival campground for one or more nights. If camping passes are purchased in advance, printed proof of purchase MUST be presented at the campground entrance. Cash only at campground entrance.
A portion of the proceeds benefits the Red Ants Pants Foundation whose work supports women’s leadership, working family farms and ranches, as well as the rural communities they call home.
