Ticket Prices
To be announced.
For reference, this is the 2023 prices :
First of all: Yes, we wanted to lower the prices more, but we all know what is happening out in this weird default world with money. We played Money-Tetris and had hours and hours worth of meetings to reduce the budget as much as possible. This is the lowest we could manage without severely cutting down on really important things like enough toilets.
So please – be fair and honest in your Ticket choice
| General | 280€ |
| Middle | 170€ |
| Low Income | 105€ |
| Kiddos (>14) | 2,50€ |
| Big Kiddos (14-18) | 85€ |
| Locals | 195€ |
| Voluntary Inflated Price | 500€ |
Low Income Ticket
Applications for Low Income Tickets are now closed.
If your application for a Low Income ticket is approved, you will be given a code so you can buy your ticket later. If your application isn’t approved, we’ll let you know as soon as possible, so that you can make other arrangements.
All applicants will receive a yes (with a code and further LI ticket info) or no (with the opportunity, first time, first gets, to get middle tier tickets released after responses are sent out) response usually before the end of March.
Middle Tier Ticket
This year we’re experimenting with a new “mid-tier” ticket to help people who might not qualify for a Low Income ticket, but can’t afford a full price ticket. It’s a self-assessed choice, but please only choose this ticket if you absolutely cannot afford a full price ticket, those middle Tickets are very limited, so keep fair! We rely on your honesty with this, if we see that this experiment is misused, we will not continue next year. So please – keep those for the people who need them.
After the low income tickets are allocated, there will be more middle tier tickets released. For those who applied for the Low Income Ticket and were denied, this is your chance.
VIP Ticket
Voluntary Inflated Price. Are you feeling extra financially comfy this year? Buying a VIP Ticket allows us to offer more low income tickets and give a bit of extra money to build better, more ridiculous and wonderful art. Do you get anything in return?
No.
It will, however, give you the warm fuzzies inside that you are helping us through another year.
Everyone needs to purchase a ticket
Unlike many commercial festivals, Nowhere is a not-for-profit organisation and nobody gets paid or receives free tickets, including artists, performers, volunteers and organisers. Tickets are our only source of income to pay for event costs as well as funding grants for artists, performers, and innovation projects.
However inclusion is one of Nowhere’s 10 principles, so we offer discounted tickets for people in the situations below:
To make it possible for parents to participate, we offer low tickets prices for children.
- 14 to 18 years old: TBD
- Under 14 years old: TBD
You can purchase these along with the purchase of the adults’ tickets, no additional steps are required.
For those who live with hearing impairment, physical disability or other conditions that require additional consideration, we offer concessionary tickets for their companions. A companion is any person who, by attending the event, enables another person to participate.
To apply, please email tickets@goingnowhere.org
Due to the huge demand for Low Income tickets last year we’ve done some juggling of ticket allocations and opened up 400 Low Income tickets. The 2023 application process was open from the 22th February at 9:00 a.m until the 22th of March at 17:00 inclusive. It will take us a few days to process all the applications and then we’ll notify all successful and unsuccessful applicants.
We ask that everyone pays what they can afford, but if you don’t have paid full-time work, you might qualify for a low-income ticket. To request a low-income discount, you’ll have to fill in this form.
You’re not eligible for the low Income Tickets but still can’t afford the normal price ? We’re glad to add the Middle Tier Tickets this year.
Note that this is not a limited discount ticket, it’s only for these who can’t come to Nowhere otherwise. Don’t spam the application volunteers.
Same as regular ticket, on march 15.
Since 2019, We created an high income tickets, priced around €100 over the standard ticket. It’s the opposite of a low income ticket. If you are feeling extra financially comfy this year, you can chip in to support the event even more by buying a high income ticket. These tickets will help us expand our offering of low income tickets, our arts funding, and other basic infrastructure for the event. 
What perks, privileges, special gifts and VIP status do you get if you buy a high income ticket?
None. Zero. Zip. Zilch. But you’ll be helping Nowhere be a more equitable and better-run event. If you can afford it, do consider buying a high income ticket. We would love you forever and ever (though we already do anyway.)
If you have any questions about Nowhere finances or want to see a breakdown of Nowhere’s accounts, you can find it here.
FAQ
What do I need to buy a ticket?
Each person is limited to purchasing 2 tickets. Every participant’s identification will be checked when entering the event, and the name on the ticket must match a government-issued photo ID (passport or European ID card). When you make the purchase, you will need to provide the name(s) that will appear on each ticket you are purchasing, as well as the email addresses of each ticket holder. (Children are exempt from having to provide email addresses.)
We accept nearly every type of card. You will need to provide the full name of the cardholder as well as the security code on the back of the card. We do not keep this data, its only used at the time of purchase by the purchase platform
If you applied for a low-income discount, you should receive notification of whether your application was approved before ticket sales, and if approved, you will receive a discount code that you will need to provide when purchasing the ticket.
Low-income discount recipients get an extra perk: your ticket will be reserved for you to purchase up until the expiry date stated in your discount confirmation email. You don’t need to rush to purchase your discounted ticket to secure your ticket. See below for additional details about low-income discounts.
I bought my ticket! What happens next?
You’ll get an email from our ticket agent with your ticket details. If you can’t find this, or need to change anything, then log into their website with the details you used when purchasing the ticket and update your account.
The Nowhere Survival Guide will be emailed to you a few weeks before the festival, but don’t wait until then to start preparing! Nowhere is a harsh environment where each person needs to be self-reliant.
Additionally, all of the art and creative elements, barrios, support and infrastructures are made by the participants, including YOU! That’s why we recommend you start planning quite early what you will contribute to the event and how you will take care of your food, water, shelter, and other personal needs.
Finally, Nowhere is a made by everyone attending. You can volunteer and help by going to fist.goingnowhere.org and find a shift for you.
Where’s my ticket?
If you haven’t received the email containing your ticket PDF, check your spam folder. If you still can’t find it, please email tickets@goingnowhere.org with your purchase reference number.
I can’t use my ticket any more. What should I do?
Nowhere runs a STEP system once the event sells out. Please note that this only applies to General tickets. If you have a General ticket do NOT email the tickets team as there is nothing we can do to help you.
Low-income/carer/local tickets MUST email tickets@goingnowhere.org to discuss your options.
Resell/Transfer outside of step
Once you’ve found a buyer for your ticket, you’ll need their email address and name. Log into your Quicket account, select “My Tickets”, then “Manage booking” and finally “List tickets for resale”. Enter the buyer’s email there.
The buyer will receive an email with instructions on how to complete the purchase in Quicket. There is a small fee for the buyer. The buyer will need to update their data in Quicket to match their ID which will be checked at the gate.
Once the ticket is paid for, the seller will receive a refund (it can take up to 10 days to appear in the bank account).
Low-income tickets cannot be resold to the general public.
Email tickets@goingnowhere.org with your ticket details and they will attempt to help you.
Log into your Quicket account, select “My Tickets” and you’ll see a “transfer tickets” below your Nowhere ticket.

If you plan to leave and return with your vehicle during the event, you will need to park it in the car park next to the Gate.

We will accept tickets on mobile devices (e.g. smartphones and tablets) as well as in printed form. We recommend you bring it in both printed and digital formats to have a backup in case one of them fails (for example if you lose your printed ticket, or your phone battery is dead by the time you arrive).
Whatever format you decide on, don’t forget to bring:
- Your ticket, either digital or on paper. Make sure it has a barcode!
- Your government-issued photo ID that matches your face and the name on the ticket.
No. When you first arrive at the gate, you’ll get a wristband that allows you on and off site whenever you want.

Nowhere is run on the “can do” system. If you have constructive criticism or can help us build a better system, then we’d love your help! Just email tickets@goingnowhere.org.
