Can I purchase a membership for someone else at the door?

If you would like to purchase memberships for other people when you arrive, you may do so for 3 and 2 day passes without them there, but you will need to fill out a walk-in form for them. 1 day passes are wristbands, so the person will need to be there with you.

I registered online, what do I need to pick up my membership?

You will need a copy of your confirmation email (either printed or on a mobile device; take a screenshot if you’re going the mobile route so you don’t have to wait for your phone to load) and a photo ID. The name on the confirmation should match your photo ID.

Do I have to pick up my membership on Thursday if I registered online?

Nope! You can pick up your membership at any time registration is open during the weekend.
