Fall 2010 ticket sales have ended, and the event is now sold out.
Ticket sales will open Monday, August 2nd at 9pm, with round two beginning Saturday, August 21st at 12 noon. All tickets will be $50 each, and must be paid for on-line at the time of purchase. Money orders will no longer be accepted, and orders will expire if not paid for immediately.
The ticket system is now online! Please go there now and register an account to minimize any delays when tickets sales begin. You should also sign up for a PayPal account if you don't have one already.
Children aged 12 and under will be admitted free of charge. You do not need to purchase tickets ahead of time or buy tickets for them at the gate.
Send questions, comments, complaints, or cheap bourbon to tickets@playadelfuego.org.

To prevent server slowdown issues that we've seen in the past right at the opening of sales, I've implemented a queue system. It's fairly simple and the wait should be brief, but you will not be allowed to purchase any tickets without having gone through it first.
You will however be allowed to log in to the ticket system beforehand, to verify that your account is functioning properly. I strongly encourage that you do this in advance, so as not to clog up the server for those waiting in the queue. You may do so now at http://tickets.playadelfuego.org/.
While a spot is not reserved in the queue until sales begin, it's still strongly encouraged that you get there in advance, so you can be sure you won't encounter compatibility problems, and so as not to put undue stress on the main server by coming here during sales to get the link to the queue.
Once ticket sales have begun and you have a spot in the queue, it will be saved even if you lose your connection or have to leave and come back. There will be no need to refresh the page constantly, as once you reach the front of the queue your place will be held and the next time you load it up you'll still be right there.
The purchase limit is, as always, six tickets per purchase. If you wish to purchase more than six tickets, you must get back in the queue (starting from the back) and wait again for another turn.
