FOTA 200 Music & Arts Festival
FOTA 2008 Music & Arts Festival
Seven days of Music, Movies, Dance, Art Exhibitions, Theatrical Performances, and more.
FOTA 2008 kicks off with an opening night concert celebration featuring Smash Mouth and Alien Ant Farm, and wraps with a rare appearance from Mythbusters Adam Savage & Jamie Hyneman. Proceeds benefit the new ARTTEC Academy for high school students pursuing careers in the entertainment industry.
Each day of the festival highlights a unique arts strand. Music, Theatre, Dance, Media Arts, and Visual Arts will be featured through a variety of exhibitions, performances, workshops, and displays.
Tickets may be purchased for individual events taking place during the festival, or guests can get a Festival Pass that offers admission to all festival events. In addition, VIP Art Patron Passes and Performing Arts Center Season Passes are accepted for festival admission.
A limited number of Festival Pass packages are available for advance ticket purchases made before April 14, while supplies last. The Festival Pass package includes reserved Mezzanine seating at all FOTA events, a parking pass, and a souvenir festival t-shirt. The Festival Pass is only $68, and is available now through Ticketmaster and our Box Office. These passes will sell out fast, so get yours soon.
The Performing Arts Center has also made available an exclusive VIP Season Pass to guests of FOTA 2008. This Season Pass allows guests to attend all shows at the Performing Arts Center for the entire 2008 year. There's a lot of exciting events coming up in '08, making this pass a great offer. The Season Pass includes Orchestra level reserved seating at all events in 2008 (including the festival), a VIP Parking pass, admission to a Meet & Greet party with Smash Mouth & Alien Ant Farm on May 15, and a souvenier festival t-shirt. All of that for only $220, and remember that all proceeds benefit the ARTTEC arts education program. These passes are available at Ticketmaster and the Box Office.
