How Do the Passes Work?
Instead of individual tickets, JFL42 has a pass system where you can see one or more of your favourite headliners plus some (or all!) of the other 42 acts. Each pass comes with 2+ credits, where one credit will get you one reservation to see any one act.
Here’s the scoop on how to get the most from your JFL42 experience:
- Start out by purchasing your pass. With many different options to choose from, there’s a pass for every comedy-lover:
- If you want a little bit of everything, The Classic pass is your ticket to a perfectly side-splitting time.
- If you want to check out the brand new ComedyCon, a ComedyCon Pass gets you that and more.
- If you’re not too hung up on any of those headliners, a Just the 42 pass will let you soak up the acts you really want to see.
- If you can’t pick between these and just want it all, The VIP Pass is your best bet for a fully-loaded festival experience.
- If you want to bypass this entire pass system, you can opt for individual tickets to take in any of the headliners or 42 acts à la carte.
- Next, activate your pass and use your credits to reserve the acts of your choice.
- When you get to the venue, whip out your smartphone to get your barcode scanned.
- Then, make sure to check in! If you check in to a show an hour before show time to an hour afterwards, your credit gets returned and you can re-use it to see another act, giving you the opportunity to take in as much comedy as your heart desires.
