Art and music lovers attending this year’s Eclectic Music Festival and Arts Crawl on April 27 will have opportunity to enjoy a “VIP experience” while supporting the festival in a new way.

“Everyone who attends the festival is a Very Important Person to us, and those interested in purchasing a special access ticket for our new VIP Zone will be supporting us with additional revenue to help cover our festival costs,” explained Laurie Wheeler, president & CEO of the South Pasadena Chamber of Commerce, which produces the festival.

Tickets to the VIP Zone will allow access to a private reserved area at the corner of Mission Street and Fairview Avenue, in a location central to various stages and the Artisans Alley. Ticketholders will receive wristbands enabling them to come and go from the reserved area throughout the festival that runs 3 p.m. to 10 p.m.
