FarmBorough Festival Tickets

I was so happy to see NY hosting a country music festival for 3 days. All of the acts were amazing and of course the headliners were phenomenal. Only downside was that you had to pay for all 3 days, even if you only wanted to go for the weekend and not Friday or any of the other combinations. I would recommend offering one day tickets for people just to give more people the chance to experience the event, even if it was just for one day. No matter what though I will be returning next year and for the many years after if Farmborough comes back to NYC.

Seeing as this was the first year of Farmborough, everyone did an amazing job with handling everything. Even with the rain everything was so much fun and enjoyed every minute of it!

By far the most fun my friends and I had at a concert in a long time! Weather played a factor one day but The show still went on and it was so much fun! We hope there is another one next year because we cannot wait to go again!

The music was great the atmosphere was fantastic. The weather was good for two day's Sat rained all day but all the acts went on so it was soggy but worth it. You were able to walk around with beer but not with alcohol which kind of sucked since the alcohol tents were out of ear shot of the main stage. So you had to either miss an act or hurry in between acts to get a drink they need to move the alcohol closer to the main stage. That was the only real problem with the event.

Amazing! I hope it becomes an annual event. Luke Bryan was unforgettable. I've seen him twice before and this time was by far the best. I wish there was more merchandise because by the beginning of day 2 so much was sold out. Loved that all of the acts, all 3 days, on both stages were 100% on time! Also enjoyed the DJ between acts playing great music! I plan on going every year!!!! Disappointed the ferry did not have the things we were promised (bar that is serving, bathroom and music) but ferry line move quickly.

This was a lot of fun. It poured one day but we stuck it out and had a great time. The other 2 days the weather was perfect. The lineups were all great performers. Luke, Brad and Dierks killed it. Great shows.

Worth every penny and more. Rain or shine! Space to bring your own chair or stand and get as close as possible to the stage. The headliners were amazing but so was everyone else.

The Festival was more FUN than I could have imagined.

My friend and I purchased tickets with the ferry pass, as suggested. When we got to the ferry at 8:50pm on Friday night, the men working the entrance had said that the last boat had left early because all day there hadn't really been people taking it. We asked them how we were supposed to get up to the show since we weren't from NYC and had been told the ferry would leave at 9. They said they didn't know. So that was our first experience with Farmborough. We finally made it up to the Island with about 5 minutes to spare before Dierks. The girl gave us our wristbands and when we made it to the gate, the scanners kept rejecting them. A couple different people tried to scan and one said that it was because their batteries were low. Dierks started playing in the middle of this fiasco and after all we went through to get up there, this was the last thing we wanted. Finally one of the girls said that they'd just let us in because nothing's been working right all day. You're telling me! Dierks was amazing as usual and we were so happy to have finally made it. On the way home, I was excited to get on the ferry with the bar and country music they had advertised. 3 days and 7 ferry rides and I never once saw this supposed ferry boat. Day 2 there were torrential downpours which was no fault to the creators but there were only a few covered areas. At every other festival I've been to, there have been lots of activities and just plain covered tents for people to hang out in. Not well planned, Farmborough. Day 3 we tried to get on the ferry and they wouldn't let us on without a paper ticket. When we got our wristbands the first night, she had told us that we didn't need tickets anymore and had easily gotten on and off ferries throughout the weekend without proof of payment. So this was obviously a shock. They made us go to a tent and have someone print a physical ticket but when we went back, they weren't checking tickets! 30 minutes spent to hassle for no reason! And on the island, after 3 days, those port o potties...good lord :( The music was great but the planning and execution was so far under par that I wouldn't go back again. For $285, I could've paid for front row seats to see Dierks, Brad, and Luke play in my hometown, and had money leftover for some of the openers too. We had bought our tickets as soon as they went on sale, excited to see who they'd pull in but as the months went by, Big Barrel kept adding great acts while Farmborough dwindled. Everyone else we talked to over the days had similar experiences, with the only bright spots being the performers. Get it together Farmborough if you want to make it a success.

Really fun event. The crowds weren't outrageous so you were able to get up close and personal with your favorite country stars! Had really amazing views and even stayed through the cold rain on Saturday. Great food trucks as well.

Pretty great event with an awesome lineup! Can't wait til next year!

Having been to the CMA Music fest in Nashville, we were anxious to attend this one much closer to home. But it was obviously their first attempt to re-create Nashville on Randall's Island and definitely needs some work. First - the $600 ticket price for the VIP tickets seems high but since it included 3 days of concerts on two stages, we thought it would be worth it. The VIP section had maybe 20 seats avail but plenty of room if you wanted to bring your own (remember you have to take a shuttle boat to get there). After the first day, we bought and brought our own. The shuttle was advertised to have a bar and music, they didn't. And how do you run out of wine at a concert? WHo knows but they did. VIP bathrooms were beautiful but the Bud and Burger stand closed up the grill at 4, the concert started at 3??? The entertainment was spectacular with good sound and large screens. We will be back again next year and hopefully a better organized event.

absolutely OBSESSED!!! The performances were amazing, rain or shine these singers went above and beyond to get the crowd worked up. Also, the crowd consisted of some of the friendliest people i have ever met... i really hope this becomes an annual festival !!! the only down side is, they should sell single-day passes in addition to 3-day passes for those that can only come on certain days... since i went all 3 days this did not effect me but i know many people that would have loved to come but didn't because they couldn't make it all 3 days!

They did a great job with the festival. We all had an awesome time and are excited for next year.

This was the first year for a country music festival in NYC. It was an absolute blast!

Even through the pouring rain on Saturday, this concert was very memorable! I hope this is the beginning of a country tradition for NYC!

The festival itself was good. Just wish there was more food to choose from and not so spread far apart that you couldn't look for what you might want to eat without walking the entire grounds. Also, more options on beverages and not overlapping so much the Nasville tent with the stage performances. It was very time consuming for someone not from the City to get to the island. Coming from CT and not driving in took 2 hours to get home the last night. The performers were outstanding and really put on some fantastic shows!!!

This was an awesome time! I traveled to NYC from Boston, ALONE, just for this concert- it was an amazing line up! I made some great friends, got practically right up front for each performer and would do it all over again in a heart beat!

Getting to and from, in and around the festival was unbelievably easy...I am not sure my friends and I took the same mode of transit twice in 3 days. Loved the Malibu Rum Beach House and Bud Burgers trailer. Never waited in line for food or drinks or the bathroom. Really hope you guys do it again, and can't wait to see who else you can add in the years to come.

Great festival and good line ups of well known and up and comers at the Next from Nashville stage. Can't wait till next year! Would be great to have a well known female headliner
