As part of our commitment to education, the Festival offers a Youth ticket price level for use by persons age sixteen and under. The Youth price level applies to any seat at any concert.
The Festival does not refund paid live event ticket purchases unless the ticketed concert is cancelled. However, should you find you are unable to use your ticket to an uncancelled live concert, please contact us before the day of the concert to arrange to donate it for resale, for which we would provide a donation receipt for the face value of your ticket.
We’re aware that the fact that the only “D” seats in Cotton Auditorium are all in the balcony poses a problem for patrons with mobility challenges. Patrons with mobility challenges who would otherwise choose “D” seats, which only exist in the balcony, are requested to contact the Festival office at (707) 937-4041, M–F 10:00AM–4:00PM.
At the door, we’ll electronically scan your smartphone-displayed or printed ticket(s).
There are four tent poles that can impact sight lines, located at the outer edges of the center section; on the outside ends of center section rows (approximately) 10 and 20 (the exact row varies from year to year). Because of the very wide stage and the wide variety of ways it’s used, it’s impossible to predict their impact on sight lines for a particular seat or performance. With in-person sales at the tent, we encourage patrons to step into the tent and gauge for themselves whether the poles will impact their view from a given seat for a particular performance. For online sales, there currently is no way for patrons to make such an assessment. Our online ticketing provider is working on development of a method of indicating the impact of the poles on sight lines in our online seating charts, and this will be part of a future improvement. In the meantime, visiting the tent is the only sure way to gauge this.
The safety and comfort of our patrons is paramount. At minimum, we follow protocols set by local public health authorities, at times exceeding them. While it’s not possible to be absolutely certain what conditions will exist come July, we currently do not anticipate any specific requirements for attending this July’s concert season.
As each July approaches, we’ll closely follow the official recommendations of local and state public health authorities regarding live events. In the event of a live event cancellation, ticket buyers will be contacted and offered a range of options, including an immediate refund of the full value of their purchased ticket(s).
While we remain dedicated to bringing live, in-person musical experiences to the Mendocino Coast, one silver lining of the pandemic has been the Festival’s creation of live-streamed and recorded content that can be enjoyed at home. Most of these programs are currently free.
An online ticket “purchase” (in quotes because many MMF virtual events are free, but require a free ticket) gets you a link (in the form of a black button or bar) that connects your device with that event at the appointed start time. The link is also emailed to you, and can be forwarded.
“Encore!” identifies recorded programs (also currently free) you can watch at your convenience. Ticketing for “Encore!” programs works the same as our livestream or other virtual events. You’ll be provided with a link for each ticketed program, which, when clicked (or tapped), connects you with that program. You’ll also receive an email link that can be forwarded.
