Join us Friday, May 23rd at Summer Camp Music Festival for the fourth annual Golden Ticket event, taking place from 1:30-2:30 pm outside the Soulshine tent.

So, what exactly is the Golden Ticket? It’s your chance to win free tickets for you and a friend to every UM show for a year.* Perhaps you’ll snag the Golden Ticket that may offer you VIP tickets to our 2014 NYE run; Tanning with Stasik; poster packs by Jeff Wood, Masthay Studios and Baker Prints; signed copies of Similar Skin; and much, much more. At a minimum, you will take home more merch than you paid for. It’s like playing the lottery but you’re a guaranteed winner.

Here’s how it works:

This year, we’ve partnered with Eagles Nest Outfitters to create exclusive custom bags. Each of these will be stuffed with merch, and the contents of every bag will remain a mystery until you have it in your hands. Hidden amongst the bags will be 25 Golden Tickets alongside a whole host of other prizes. That’s right, we’ve added even more Golden Tickets this year. ‘Cause hey, why not?

Along with attending every Umphrey’s show for a year, a partial list of items that you could find residing in your bag this year include: t-shirts, live concert DVDs, stickers, UMLives, and more. The Golden Ticket winnings include: two tickets to the five shows of your choosing*, photo pit access during an Umphrey’s set, passes for you and a friend to Summer Camp late night shows in the Red Barn, and so much more. Finally, five winners will receive Summer Camp survival kits — bags filled to the brim with everything you didn’t know you needed to survive the weekend.

As with last year, we will be donating a portion of the proceeds to one of Summer Camp’s many not-for-profit charities. This year proceeds will once again benefit The Runway to Hope Foundation, a creative anti-bullying campaign focused on music as a great equalizer. Right on. So head over to the Soulshine Tent right before moe.’s set on Friday and join us for the shenanigans. You can’t lose.
