Early Bird Pricing

Basic all-inclusive festival package: $1,540 (increases to $1,699 on April 1). It includes:

• One 9-hour intensive with a curated team, ending with a performance
• 5 small-group workshops, 2 hours each (Festival Track)
• All meals—breakfast, lunch, and dinner
• Double-occupancy dorm-style room
• Bed linens and towels
• No-hassle refund of up to 60% if you cancel before August 1

Nonparticipant guest cost: $1,265, based on a double-occupancy dorm twin, after signing up for VIF membership (increases to $1,390 April 1) 

Additional Costs
Educational Upgrades

• 5-hour Master Class, without performance: $125 each (increases to $150 April 1)
• 10-hour Master Class, with performance: $250 (increases to $300 April 1)
• Extra 9-Hour Curated Team: $225 (increases to $270 April 1)

Housing Upgrades (increase 10% April 1)

Most dorm-style rooms have four twin beds (two sets of bunk beds), but are included in the basic package as double occupancy. (Triple or quad occupancy is also possible, at a discount per person; see Roommates section below for details.) If you prefer solo (single) occupancy and/or a location with an ocean view, larger bed size and/or fewer persons sharing a bathroom, upgrade costs will be added to the basic Festival fee (see the Cost Estimator below). See map below for locations.

• Solo (single) occupancy in dorm-style room: +$440 in Rowland, Morris, Cross, Kelly, Quillen or Underwood; +$615 in Claflin; +$880 in Metz Village
• Premium locations: +$350 per person in Morris, Claflin, Cross, Kelly , or ocean-view room in Quillen; +$175 per person in other Quillen rooms
• Queen bed/double bed in some buildings: +$50 charge per room (covers 1 or 2 people; limited availability)
• Metz Village separate cottage: +$350 per person (only 3 cottages available)

So, for example, here’s the math if you choose one 10-hour Master Class and a queen bed in a Morris Cottage room that has both a single and a queen bed: $1,540 + $250 (Master Class) + $350 (Morris) + $50 (queen bed) = $2,190 for the Early Bird basic Festival package with premium lodging. The same choices would total $2,439 after March 31.

Please note: The upgrade and discount costs shown below are based on paying all Festival fees in full by March 31 in cash by Zelle or “bank check” option. The discount for a nonparticipating guest (room and food only) is $275, but will be lowered to $150 discount after March 31.

• Pay your Early Bird deposit and lock in best prices, including the up to 60% refund if you cancel for any reason before August 1. (After March 31, you will pay 10% extra for the refund option.)
• When you register, you will receive your invoice. Pay as much as you can in cash by Zelle (using the email ) or our new “bank check” option by March 31.
• Pay the final balance in full by March 31 via e-check or Zelle to save up to $100 in processing fees.
• Choose to stay at the Ferry Beach RV/campsite and save $125 for single occupancy or $185 each for double or triple.
• Add another roommate or two—for triple or quad occupancy in your dorm room in Rowland, Underwood, or Quillen—and save $25 to $200. See the Upgrade Calculator above for discounts.

Ways to Get Priority Access

• Renew your annual VIF membership ($25).
• Only pay for one registration at a time if you are paying for more than one person. 
• Pay your registration deposit as soon as possible to get first choice of housing options and Master Classes when they are announced. That’s $250 cash for all payment types: Zelle, check or credit card.  To receive cash discount, choose COD at checkout when registering through Shopify and we will invoice you with instructions.  You should pay through our bank the day we receive your request. If you pay by credit card, please make your selections and follow instructions as we will also send you an invoice and an item link to pay your deposit. 
• Pay all upgrades at the time of your order in the manner above. We will invoice you but as long as you pay within 48 hours, we will hold your choices/spots/rooms.
• Any payments completed by March 31 are fee free. The cash discount ends March 31. Any balance remaining at that time will be increased by 3% and payable through Shopify. 
• Any upgrades added after March 31 will be billed at the higher rate.

Installment Plan: Up to 6 payments

• Pay the $250 deposit on the basic package ASAP to secure priority.
• Pay 25% of the total for your balance including Upgrade(s) to confirm spots within 48 hours of receiving your invoice.  You will be able to pay through your bank or through Shopify.
• Choose from 2 to 6 monthly payments, to be paid in full by August 1.
• Set up an automatic payment plan through your bank for a low per-transaction fee.
• Payments are due on the first of each month. A $25 late fee per installment will be added if any payment is received after the 5th of the month for which it is due.
• Any upgrades added after March 31 will be billed at the higher rate.

Roommates

• You may look at rooms including quads and triples and plan for a roommate(s). Please notify us before registration opens so we can advise and plan the process with you. 
• We are trying a new system that allows you to choose a specific room, which we will honor unless the festival will lose money or a location becomes unavailable for unforeseen reasons. 
• If you are choosing a double-occupancy form and would be happy with us choosing your room, you may let us know during the invoicing. 

Master Class Registrations

Once Master Classes are announced, you can register separately for them when they are released. Notification and selection priority are based on the date and time you paid for your annual VIF Community Membership and your Festival deposit.
