FAQ’s


I’ve bought a Savannah Stopover Festival pass. Do I just show up to a venue?
No. Paper tickets will not be accepted at the door, you will need to exchange your paper tickets for a wristband or badge. Your wristband\ badge is the only way you will be permitted into Savannah Stopover venues.

I hate ticket sites. Where else can I buy my pass?

Tickets will be on sale at local Savannah establishments beginning 2/17: Graveface Records & Curiosities, Civvies, Primary Arts, The Jinx and LiveWire Music Hall.

 

Do I have to personally exchange my pass for my wristband?
Yes. All wristbands will need to be picked up in person. The wristband will be placed on the person’s left or right wrist at the time of pickup. Once bound to the wrist it cannot be removed without voiding the wristband.

Where do I pick up my wristband?
ALL tickets must be redeemed for wristbands or badges at The Creative Coast Offices at 15 West York Street, Savannah, Ga 31401.

When can I pick up my wristband?

Do I have to wear my wristband at all times?
YES! Do not take off your wristband, lose your wristband, let your dog eat your wristband, etc. No wristband- No entry.

But my wristband broke/fell off/got lost/came off in the shower. What do I do?

You must bring the torn, mangled thing with you back to our Ticket HQ and we will replace it. Once.

What if I’m under 21 and I want to buy a 4 day pass?

Once I’m here, how do I get access to a schedule and venue guide?
Keep checking the official Savannah Stopover website for the latest information regarding scheduled events. It’s the best source of information for all of your planning needs. However, we will have printed guides beginning 2/29.

I’ve never been to Savannah before. Where are the best places to stay or things to do?
You will find all of our suggestions for that information listed under the ‘Around Town’ category, but we hope that you’ll have fun exploring and finding places that are unique to your specific tastes.

Will I need a car to get to all the venues? And if so, what’s the parking situation in Savannah?
Luckily, the venues are all located within walking distance and consolidated within the Downtown area (except for the Wormhole). Therefore, you can easily avoid traffic hassles and walk or bike to all venues. If you are interested in renting a bike, please see the ‘Around Town’ category with info on those locations.
If you do prefer to drive a car downtown, there are several parking garages dispersed throughout the area and their prices vary. Street parking is also available, however most street parking is metered or timed. Street parking is monitored M-F, 8am-5pm and payment at the designated meter is required only during these times. Make sure to mind sweep zones if you plan on leaving your car overnight. Be sure to pay close attention to all of the parking restrictions posted where you leave your car because they will ticket your vehicle otherwise.
If you want to ditch your car and bike altogether, there are also a plethora of cab companies and a pedicab service that all cater to the downtown area.

Where can I smoke? And can I get back in if I leave a venue to smoke?
Smoking is prohibited inside of all venues. You may re-enter the venue after you’ve gone outside to smoke, however you will have to get back in line. The silver lining is that you may take your drink in a to go cup with you outside, so it makes any waiting a whole lot better.

Wait, I can take my drink to go?
Yes! The downtown perimeters of Savannah do not have an open container law, therefore one drink per person may be poured into a plastic cup before leaving a venue. Not all venues allow entry with a beverage, but all will gladly hand you a to go cup on your way out. Reminder: NO glass or cans on the street!

It’s the day of and the wristband pick-up office is closed, but I really wanna see a show. What do I do?
Well the phrase “the early bird gets the worm” rings true here as well. We will do our best to accommodate you, provided there is space permitting at the venue and wrist-band holders are guaranteed their entrance first.

I’m a local college student. Do I get a discount?
Yes, you will receive 20% off the 4 day festival pass when you purchase on Showclix. You must show your college ID when you are redeeming your ticket for your 4 day wristband. Please enter the code: School Of Rock when purchasing your ticket through Showclix.
