Photo Guidelines

• The photo must be a headshot where your face is clear and not obstructed by elements such as sunglasses. It is as simple as that. Yet, it seems we need to make the point clearer, so...

• Please submit only what is requested above

Collecting your Friend of Faire or Season Pass Packet



During your purchase on the etix website, you'll have the opportunity to select Priority Mail or Will Call.

Priority Mail 

• Shipments start in mid-January
• You'll see an email with tracking when your order is processed.  If the tracking shows that the package has still not shipped after a few days, we may are probably missing something.  The #1 reason for delayed shipments is a photo that meets guidelines has not been submitted

• Multiple packets purchased in one order with Priority Mail selected will all ship together; to ship to multiple addresses, place multiple orders
• Any packet missing an element (such as a headshot photo) will prevent all other packets in the same order from shipping

If Will Call is selected...

• If purchased by Jan 31, 2025 your packet will be available at the Move-In Weekend (Feb 7-9, 2025).  If you miss this date FOFs can be picked up on faire weekends at the campground Guard Shack; SPs can be picked up on faire weekends at the front gate Will Call booth
• If purchased Feb 1, 2025 or later, FOFs can be picked up on faire weekends at the campground Guard Shack; SPs can be picked up on faire weekends at the front gate Will Call booth

About a week before faire opens, we'll send an email asking if anyone wants to move their packet from its default location to the other location
