After their ID is checked and they have a wrist band applied, all tickets will be scanned and adult ticket holders may proceed through the gate and go directly to the nearest Wine Glass Tent (the large Wine Glass Tent in front of the Farmhouse for those using the front Advance Ticket Gate; for those entering from the “Ag Center” side through Gates 5 or 6, there are Wine Glass Tents just inside each of those gates.) Present your ticket at the “Advance Tickets” sign at the wine glass tent where your ticket will be date-stamped and you will receive your wine glass. After receiving a glass, Premier ticket holders should present their ticket at the Premier Tent where they will receive a wristband that will allow entrance to the Premier area throughout the day.
