Looking for 2020 Ticket? |
“Guests loved the changes we implemented last year!” said Barb Krumm, Director of Marketing and Public Relations at Ocean Lakes Family Campground. “We sold out last year and had guests scrambling to find tickets. Featuring four bands, as opposed to our traditional eight bands allows us to book big names and adjust the schedule for attendees.” Tickets sales were limited for this year’s show in light of COVID-19. It is a private event/activity only for Ocean Lakes’ guests (camper, renters, leaseholders). Guests can contact us at the Event Ticket Hotline at (843) 828-4856 or online at www.OceanLakes.com.
“We expect cancellations and are working to have guest-friendly policies for those that need to change their plans this year due to COVID-19,” comments Krumm. “Anyone still looking for tickets should call our Ticket Line or reach out to Lauren at leckersley@oceanlakes.com to see if there are tickets not being used for this year’s show.”
Bluegrass entertainment begins mid-afternoon each day (see schedule at OceanLakes.com).
2020 prices for adult wristbands for both days are only $65 (plus site fee) if ordered in advance. Wristbands for ages 7 – 12 are $40, and children 6 and under are free. Tickets for the day of the show will be $70 for adults and $45 for children ages 7 -12.
