The Club Pass is RIJF's unique pass that gives you access to up to all Club Pass Series shows June 17 - 25, 2022 at the Festival's official Club Pass Series venues.
Notice to 19th Edition Club Pass Ticket Holders
Club Pass tickets purchased for our 2020 festival are automatically honored for our Festival this year, June 17 - 25, 2022. In consideration of these unprecedented times and since the Club Pass is a value ticket for a festival series, not a ticket to a specific show on a specific date, if you cannot use your pass in 2022 we are pleased to extend the pass’s full value to 2023.

ABOUT THE RIJF CLUB PASS
We have been honored to bring you the finest in creative improvised music from around the world for 18 years in our renowned club pass series.
There is a vast difference between reserved seat concerts and RIJF’s 3-Day and 9-Day Club Pass series general admission tickets. Club Pass Tickets offer a steeply discounted value allowing attendance to as many shows as physically possible. Club Passes are fully transferable, shareable and are specially-priced value tickets providing a multi-day music experience.
Since 2002, RIJF has developed its Club Pass series to offer as many performances on one ticket (a pass) as possible. Patrons who purchase 3- and 9-Day Club Pass tickets from late October to March before any artist names have been announced, know that the festival delivers high-level entertainment for a very low price over the course of several days in multiple venues.
Club Pass Show Entry without a Club Pass
You don't need a Club Pass to access Club Pass Series shows. Enter at the door for $30 ($35 Kilbourn Hall), cash only. No advance tickets are sold for Club Pass Series Shows and there are no reserved seats. Entry is first-come, first-served for all, whether you pay cash at the door or have a Club Pass. Since venues may fill to capacity prior to shows so to ensure a better chance of a seat, arrive early and wait in line. Doors open 30 minutes before shows.
