A: Saturday, February 7, 2026, from 2:00 – 9:30 p.m. in 16 venues throughout Downtown Longmont.

A: The all-inclusive General Admission ticket gets you access to every show on the schedule (entry is not guaranteed based on capacity. See below for more info). In addition to being able to see all these talented local musicians, you'll be helping us provide direct monetary support to our entire lineup of talented local musicians. And of course, you'll receive the highly-sought-after annual commemorative groundhog pin (which is really priceless).

A: Not necessarily. The ticket guarantees you ACCESS to every show, but different venues have different capacities, and can’t legally allow more people than that. If there are certain shows you absolutely don’t want to miss out on, we suggest arriving plenty early to make sure you get in before it’s full.

A: We can’t guarantee that everyone will have a seat for every performance. Many venues will have ample seating, but there may be cases where it becomes standing room only. We suggest showing up early to increase the likelihood that you will get a seat for the performance. If you would like to discuss accessibility accommodations for the Winter Walkabout, please email LDDA@longmontcolorado.gov or call 303-651-8484.

A: Not necessarily. There will always be multiple shows happening at the same time, so even if one venue is full, you can walk to one of the others that should have room. Or you could wait outside a venue in hopes that someone will leave during the show and you’ll be able to head in. But no guarantees.

A: That’s the easiest and most convenient way, but if you would like to make your purchase in-person you can come in to the LDDA Office at 320 Main St. We are open Mon-Thurs 8:30-5, and Friday 8:30-4. We can accept Credit Card or Cash. For day-of-event ticket purchases, please see question #2 above.

A: The ‘ticket’ for the Showcase will be a 2” x 2” button you can pin to your clothing (for convenience, visibility, and the fashion statement). Tickets will be available for pickup on the day of the event, Saturday, February 7, at the will-call / box office location, 519 Main St. We will e-mail all ticket purchasers with pickup information the week before the Showcase.

A: There's an "unofficial" afterparty! All WWMS attendees are welcome to join DJ Drake at The Times Collaborative (338 Main St.) for a late-night 80's dance party with food and drink available for purchase! The party starts at 8:00 and will go until around 11! WWMS ticketholders get free entry, and anyone else can pay a cover at the door.

A: Yes, definitely! All ages are welcome to attend. Discretion is advised based on venue and performer - we can't guarantee family-friendly language and content for the entire duration of every single performance, but the event is absolutely family-friendly. Child (12 and under) tickets are available on a LIMITED BASIS for $10. Please contact ldda@longmontcolorado.gov
or call 303-651-8750 to purchase child tickets.

A: If the event must be cancelled for any reason, tickets will be transferred to a later date or refunded at face value.

A: Parking will be available on-street, and in public and venue parking lots. Visit our Parking Page for more information. Please be safe and courteous!

A: All of the venues are within several blocks of each other, Walking is strongly encouraged (we didn't name it the 'Winter Driveabout'), and is probably the fastest, most efficient way to get between shows. Shuttle options may be available, and will be emailed to ticket purchasers if applicable.

A: Absolutely! We at the WWMS and Longmont Creative District believe that compensating artists fairly to help provide a living wage is of utmost importance. Your ticket purchase goes directly toward paying WWMS artists.

A: We at the WWMS and Longmont Creative District believe that compensating artists fairly to help provide a living wage is of utmost importance, so we do increase ticket prices occasionally as cost of living continues to increase. We believe the maximum price for a General Admission ticket is still an incredible value for all the performances you have access to, and we’ve added tiered pricing with early-bird tickets available, so get your tickets early for the best value!

A: Feel free to e-mail ldda@longmontcolorado.gov or call 303-651-8750.
