Monday is the last day to purchase tickets at advance prices for this year’s Delfest. 4-day, 3-day, and 2-day passes will increase by $10 after that date. Please note all tickets purchased at this time will either be held at Will Call or you may choose to use the PrintPass option. If you paid for your tickets to be mailed to you, and haven't received them by Monday, May 20, contact info@delfest.com. Here’s more info on the event:
 
Arrival/Camping
Be sure to read the information that came with your tickets very carefully as it details box office hours, location (it's five miles off site), and arrival procedures. If you chose Print Pass, you can download the information here.
 
New Camping/Parking Info: the venue has significantly increased it's camping areas in the woods by clearing out underbrush and low limbs. Expect to be parked tightly and efficiently, and to use the wooded areas for walk-in camping. You won't be too far from your vehicle, but do not expect to camp right next to your car as we need to maximize parking space, and park efficiently.
Want to volunteer?
Volunteer slots are still open for DelFest in crews ranging from catering to wristband check. If you're interested in trading 16 hours of work for a four-day festival pass, contact us.
 
Fun For the Whole Family
DelFest is definitely a family affair... the McCoury clan sets the tone with three generations in attendance. We've got lots of crafts, special musical performances, hooping, and the Allegany Arts Bus will be on hand as well to conduct art projects for kids of all ages. Be sure to have your kids bring a white t-shirt! Friends of Decker's Creek will be doing a dyeing project. Full schedule available here.
 
Mobile Phone Recycling Drive
Rock the Earth is calling on DelFest attendees to gather up as many old, unwanted mobile phones as possible and bring them to the Rock the Earth booth for recycling. All phones are purged of data, with working phones re-distributed via positive community-based support groups. So collect those old mobile phones, help the environment, and win some prizes!
 
Del's Army Food Drive
Join Del’s Army in restocking the Allegany County Food Bank! We’ve promised Del and Jean that we are going to get 2,000 pounds of donations to feed the hungry in Western Maryland. There will be a collection station at the Campground Entrance. Come prepared and help the cause! RSVP to the Food Drive on Facebook here.
