Sasquatch! Festival Tickets

Sasquatch Festival ticket holders have been enjoying a variety of entertainment from the Gorge Amphitheatre in George, Washington, since 2002.

The festival was originally founded by former concert promoter Adam Zacks, who is from the Northwest and had previous success organizing shows in Portland, Oregon at the Roseland Theatre. Zacks was hoping to capitalize on the success of similar music festivals, such as Lollapalooza and Lilith, and he has continued to dominate the current music scene with annual Sasquatch festival ticket holders coming to this northern town in hordes to see some of their favorite artists from various genres.    

The Sasquatch Festival ticket holders that attended the first show saw few large acts. The headliner in the inauguration year was The String Cheese Incident. Since the early years, this festival has added to its headline acts, as well as up and coming musical groups looking for their first break and talented enough to just maybe get it.

Some of the frequent guests that come to this festival include The Decemberists, Minus the Bear and Nine Inch Nails. Others that have graced the stage of this event include The Black Keys, the Beastie Boys and The Presidents of the United States of America.

Memorable Highlights from Previous Sasquatch Festival Ticket Holders

Sasquatch Festival ticket holders have seen many great acts in the years that this festival has now taken place in Washington. While the emphasis of the festival tends to be on songwriters and the Indie Rock style, other genres have also made their way to this stage to delight audiences with their depth of musical talent. This year, the Foo Fighters will be the headliner for the June festival, but previous years have also boasted big names like Ween and Kings of Leon.

The venue, the Gorge Amphitheatre in George, has been the nine-time winner of the Pollstar Magazine's award for Best Outdoor Music Venue. The Gorge Food Court offers a variety of food and beverages that allow Sasquatch Festival ticket holders to enjoy the musical entertainment to the fullest. Beer and wine are also available for purchase.

Who Should Purchase Sasquatch Festival Tickets?

Because this festival often features up and coming talent in a particular musical venue, it may not be right for everyone. Music groups typically appeal to the adult crowd and may not hold the interest of children and teens. Anyone with a real appreciation of music and a willingness to enjoy it in the great outdoors of Washington will enjoy Sasquatch Festival tickets.
