Practical Info:

TICKETS 2010:
  • PRICES
    • ADULTS
      Limited supply three-day early bird tickets $188 + service fee, a saving of $32. Buy two and you’ll save $64! Once all the early bird tickets have been snapped up three-day ticket prices will revert to $220 + service fee.
    • YOUTH (13 - 17 years at the time of the festival)
      Limited supply three-day early bird tickets for youth $142 - they really will love a WOMAD ticket for Christmas just as much as a new cellphone and their WOMAD memories will last a lot longer! Once all the early bird tickets have gone three-day youth ticket prices will revert to $167 + service fee.
    • CHILDREN
      Children aged 12 years and under are free, and WOMAD is super family friendly, we even have a creative programme just for them! And the Kidzone parade on Sunday night stops the whole festival in its tracks.
  • EARLY BIRD TICKETS
    • Early bird (discounted) tickets go on sale for WOMAD 2010 on October 5, 2009! Those of you on the WOMAD email databse will have one week to get your hands on these limited tickets before we throw the ticket box doors wide open to the world. So don’t be slow - you know you want to go! Secure your entry to New Zealand’s greenest, cleanest and most fabulous music and cultural festival and save $32 off the standard three-day ticket price.
