FreshGrass | Bentonville

Am I limited in the number of tickets I can order? 
Orders are limited to six (6) adult tickets, with Momentary members able to order up to two (2) adult tickets at the member price. If your party size is larger than six, we recommend having another member of your group purchase the additional tickets needed.

Can I share my festival pass with my friends?
No, a festival pass is for you and you only. It is not transferable between different people attending different days. The single day ticket is meant for a single-day guest. You will receive a two-day wristband upon entry which should be left on throughout the festival weekend and not removed at any point.

Are ticket sales final?
Ticket sales, including ticketing and handling fees, are final and non-refundable. (Full ticket policy available online here. If FreshGrass is canceled due to unforeseen circumstances, ticket buyers will have the option to receive a full refund.

Can I bring my kids and do they have to pay?
FreshGrass | Bentonville is a family-friendly event—children are welcome, and admission is free for those six and under with an accompanying adult. There is a reduced price for kids aged 7-16.

I’ve purchased a FreshPass and will have my child with me. Can they come into the FreshPass Lounge with me?
Yes! Children are welcome in the FreshPass Lounge with an accompanying adult with a FreshPass VIP Pass.

What other events will take place? 
In addition to live music, festival events include family-friendly artmaking activities, a local food and makers market, square dancing, access art across the Momentary campus, and more. Feel free to bring your acoustic, non-amplified instruments for informal picking circles and workshops.

How can I stay connected on what’s happening during the festival?

In the event of lightning, heavy flooding, or dangerous winds, we will move indoors to wait out the storm. Announcements will be made on location and via the Momentary’s social media platforms. Only in a rare event will a performance be canceled.

Are pets allowed? I’d like to bring my dog on a leash.

Will vendors accept credit or debit cards?
