FAQs

Can I bring my kids? Do kids get in free?
Guests of all ages are welcome to attend shows, which are priced per person. Americana Harvest Fest tickets are required for ages 3 and up.

What kind of chairs and blankets are allowed inside the venue?
Single size, low-rise beach/lawn chairs (not exceeding 8 inches from the ground to the bottom of the seat and no higher than 32 inches total from the ground to the top of the chair) are OK. Please note that small beach towels and blankets are allowed but please be neighborly and don’t take up more space than you need.

Is standing or dancing allowed?
Guests are permitted (and sometimes encouraged by the artist!) to stand and dance where seated. Situating your chair or blanket with a view of the stage does not guarantee you an unobstructed view. We do ask everyone to please be neighborly to other guests and refrain from conduct that is offensive or physically dangerous.

The show I want tickets to is sold out! Should I buy tickets on Craigslist or FaceBook Marketplace?
Scammers doctor print-at-home tickets and sell these online for all sorts of shows. The buyers of these ticket will not be admitted to Topaz Farm shows, since the barcodes are fake. Due to these scams, we strongly advise you not to buy tickets to our events other than through our site and ticketing partner, Opendate.

Do you take credit or debit cards?
We accept cash and credit cards.

Where do I park? Is there a fee?
Parking is free though oversized vehicles, buses and RVs are prohibited. You can park in any of the designated asphalt or grass lots and there is staff posted to assist you at larger events.

What if it rains or is really hot?
All events are held rain or shine. No tarps will be allowed. Small, personal-sized umbrellas are allowed at music events, but can not be used once the performance has begun.

What if I can’t make it?
There are no refunds on tickets. We suggest selling (or giving!) your tickets to someone you know.

What if I lost something?
All items turned in throughout the farm are gathered and kept at the cashier’s area of the farm stand. If you’re missing an item, please stop by during farm hours.

Can I come before the farm opens at 5:00 p.m.?
The farm closes at 2:00 p.m. on Americana Harvest Fest days so we can prepare and set-up for the evening. If you arrive early, we recommend visiting the island beaches or parks including nearby Willamette River Greenway and Howell Territorial Park.
