Everything you need to know about WILL CALL

This is Dan.

Hey Shambhalovlies!

So, our Ticket Administrator, Dan, is getting A LOT of emails about the ticket ordering & pick up process now that we’re no longer shipping tickets.

We stopped shipping tickets as of NOON, June 28th, 2013 as a precaution, to make sure that you’re able to access your tickets by the time of the show. We want to make sure that throughout July, people aren’t anxiously waiting for tickets to be shipped to them, only to have their order hit their mailbox after they’re supposed to be On the Road to Shambhala.

Enter, WILL CALL.

So what is “Will Call“? It’s a pretty common box office term in North America that simply means, “for pick up.” That’s it. You pick your ticket up at the festival.

It sounds like a lot of you want to know a little bit more about Will Call before you order. That’s cool! We’ve got the details for you.

^^^ Pick Up Your Tix Here ^^^

Here’s the super simple process for picking up WILL CALL tickets:

• HIGH VOLUME TIMES: If the lineups in the Fairy Lot are long, parking staff will direct you to park in the Fairy Lot line.  Then you will walk back to the Reception building for Will Call (this way, you don’t lose your place in line).
• LOW VOLUME TIMES: Drive toward the Reception building for Will Call. Park in designated Will Call parking area. 
• To pick up a ticket YOU ordered: Present Reception Crew with your Paypal transaction receipt & 2 valid pieces of ID (1 piece of valid, gov’t issued photo ID, one supporting piece of ID).
• To pick up a ticket SOMEONE ELSE ordered: Did a friend or family member buy your Will Call ticket for you? No problem – it’s almost the same process. Present Reception Crew with a copy of:
  • a Paypal transaction receipt for the order.
  • a photocopy of the valid, gov’t issued photo ID of the original purchaser.
  • a signed letter from the original purchaser giving you permission to pick up the ticket held under their name (the letter must include your full legal name, as it appears on your ID).
  • Your 2 valid pieces of ID (1 piece of valid, gov’t issued photo ID, one supporting piece of ID).
• Pick up your pre-ordered tickets at Will Call.
• Return to your vehicle to proceed to ticket processing.

That’s all there is to it!

This is where you pick up your Will Call tickets.

Will Call is safe, easy and secure – your ticket is already at the festival, so you don’t have to worry about losing it or forgetting it.

Don’t wait! Grab your tickets soon! There have been a couple surges of ticket sales in the past week. See you in 18 days!

If you’re in Vancouver, Kelowna, Nelson or Calgary, you can also pick up tickets locally in one of our Ticket Stores!

SO FAR: Three days, 4 mixes! We kicked off 7 days of On the Road to Shambhala Mixes with Mat the Alien’s On the Road to Shambhala Official Mix on Friday. Saturday, FAT PAT brought us the sounds of The Village Stage with his On the Road to the Village Taste Test Mix. Sunday, GWIL & AUSTRIPIN repped the Lab with TWO On the Road to the Labyrinth & Nebula stage mixes.

Today we’ve got a FARM FRESH On the Road to the Pagoda mix by Cut La Whut.

Shambhala’s Stew Bot caught up with Cut and asked him a few questions.

SB: So, how did you get into DJing?

CLW: King Weep. I lived with this cat in Wyoming who used to work for Tower Records in NYC and he had a massive collection of hip hop, house, breaks, dnb and i used to sit at the house and just watch and listen to all the tricks of the mix.  The skills and precision it took had me hooked immediately.

SB: Thats cool.  Being from Wyoming, how did that effect your upbringing or introduction to music?

CLW: It was pretty bleak where i grew up.  Luckily I had a escape vehicle in the form of a skateboard.   The music and art of skate culture definitely saved me.   It made me travel search for new surroundings.   Skate life always seemed to have some sort of music surrounding it whether it was punk, metal, hip hop or whatever.  Then after living with a turntablist it just changed everything.

SB: If you could DJ one gig in the world what would it be?

CLW: Ummmm, have you seen my set time at the Pagoda this year? hahhahaa, Dream set!  Um, besides that, the “Eyes Wide Shut” party would be cool…

SB:  Ok, 5 words to describe Shambhala Music Festival.  GO!

CLW: EPIC – BABERAVE – MASSIVE – HOMEBREAKIN – SENSORY BLISS.  Oh wait, thats six words. Is that cool?

Come check out Cut la Whut on Saturday at the Living Room Stage at 2pm for a daytime beach party and then later on that night over at the Pagoda at 2:30 AM.

You can keep up with his travels, show dates, and download all the freshness right here on the introweb….
