Do you have unused Rogue Music Fest BlastPass Credits?
When you register, you are all set to skip the lines at the gate and go directly into the Festival.
The Rogue Music Fest is cashless and your wristband is your wallet. Any time during the registration process or before the festival you can add funds to it and be ready to purchase your favorite beverage.
WHAT IS BLASTPASS?
BlastPass is a cashless system for all purchases at the Rogue Music Fest. Including but not limited to food, beverages, artist merchandise, souvenir vendors, etc. BlastPass uses RFID technology that stores your credits for an easy payment process. BlastPass saves you time and stress without needing cash at the festival! You will use your festival wristband as your wallet during the Festival.
WHAT IS RFID?
RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification. In simple terms, it’s a short-range digital chip that can store small amounts of data. You might have already come across RFID before – it’s the same technology used in many contactless payment systems like chipped credit cards.
CAN I PURCHASE BLASTPASS CARDS AT THE FESTIVAL?
An option to having your BlastPass on your wristband is to purchase credits on a BlastPass card (like a Credit Card) once you are inside the Festival. Automated BlastPass Refill Stations will have the ability for you to buy credits on a BlastPass card using a debit or credit card. You can easily share the card with others in your party. Unlike the BlastPass on your wristband, BlastPass cards will not allow you entry into the festival.
You will also be able to reload your BlastPass card at the Refill Stations using a debit or credit card. If you need to convert cash into BlastPass credits, you must visit the Bi-Mart Amphitheater Ticket booth or the window booths near the merchandise booth, and we will have someone there to assist you.
WHY DO I NEED A BLASTPASS WRISTBAND?
Your BlastPass Wristband will be the only way you will be able to enter the festival. It will be scanned at the Festival gates. Wristbands are required to stay on your wrist for the entire festival.
HOW DO I GET MY WRISTBAND IN ADVANCE?
We are going to offer several Wristband distribution parties where you can come pick up your wristband and register it before you get to the festival. Once you register your wristband, you will be able to load credits onto it before you arrive at the festival. (NO LINE)
