Wilco‘s biennial Solid Sound Festival returns in 2019 from June 28-30 at MASS MoCA in North Adams, MA. Lineup is still TBA but early bird tickets go on sale Thursday (10/18) at 11 AM. Here’s more ticket info via press release:

For a limited time, tickets will be offered at a reduced early-bird rate of $149 (regular price $179). Children’s three-day tickets (ages 6-10) will be available for $55 and children under 6 are free. Thursday also marks the opening of campsite reservations for the official festival campground Solid Ground. Campsite reservations can be made only by calling the MASS MoCA Box Office.

Additionally, this year Solid Sound Festival will offer a limited new ticketing option. “Friends of the Festival” passes offer singular opportunities for fans, including a festival poster signed by Wilco, an autographed copy of Jeff Tweedy’s upcoming memoir, Let’s Go (So We Can Get Back), a private lounge with an intimate pop-up performance, and much more. Full details are below, including limited FOTF lodging options at TOURISTS, the hotel and riverside retreat developed by Wilco’s John Stirratt and partners in North Adams. Proceeds from Friends of the Festival Passes benefit MASS MoCA’s arts education programs.
