There are still tickets available in select retail store locations, located on the right column of this page under “BUY TICKETS.”
The store locations listed on the website are the only authorized retailers for Shambhala 2012 tickets, and the Shambhala website is the only legitimate online retailer of tickets. We do not authorize any external website to resell our tickets, and cannot verify any tickets purchased through a 3rd party. Please Lovelies, be careful and protect yourselves from fraud!!
Some tickets are still available through ShambhaLodging -

All other online tickets are sold out.
As of February 15th 2012 all online orders have been shipped out!! 
If your order has returned to the Nelson office, please contact our Ticket Dept for assistance!
The following applies to all ticket orders. Please read before placing an order.
#1 – All online orders must be placed through a PayPal account. You can link up your checking account or credit card to your account, or you can deposit funds straight into it. Any of these options, including setting up an account, may not happen instantly, so be prepared!#2 – Check and recheck that your mailing address, email address and phone number are correct. These are our main ways of getting in touch with you!!
**Please note: While we can help you out with ticket issues, we cannot answer all PayPal related questions – so if you are having issues with your account, you will need to call PayPal. We apologize for the inconvenience.**
#3 – ALL international orders are kept at will call – no exceptions. Your shipping fee is considered a handling fee to cover the administrative cost of this service. “Will Call” is a secure way to make sure that your ticket is kept safe while you journey to Shambhala! Please reference the Ticket FAQ for more information on this process and what you need in order to pick up your ticket.
#4 – Ticket limits: 2 per purchase for the first tier, and 3 per purchase the next two tiers. Age limit: 19+. You can purchase a ticket if you’ll be 19 by the time of the event.
#5 – All orders are subject to $11 shipping/handling, and 12% HST (Harmonized Sales Tax) – this tax is applied to all goods and services in British Columbia. Because the ticket is consumed in BC, HST applies to all tickets sold.
#6 – Orders are shipped through registered mail – which means they need to be signed for an individual who lives at the address on the order. If you are waiting for your order – or if you are expecting a roommate or parent to sign for it – make sure they know!!! Any refused orders are automatically sent back to us and you will have to pay the reshipment fee to get it back out to you! If you do not receive your order in hand at your house, it will be kept at your local post office for 10-15 days.
#7 – All tracking numbers are entered onto PayPal after orders are shipped, and you should receive an email notification when that occurs. Check for this number in your account if you do not receive the email! It is with your tracking number that you can keep an eye on your order – and this is especially important if you haven’t received the parcel pick up notice! Just input the tracking number on the Canada Post website to be kept updated!
#8 – While we can do our best to give you the tracking information for your order, sometimes the parcel pick up notices from the post office get lost or misplaced. So please keep an eye on your PayPal account for the tracking number – and follow it!!!
#9 – Registered mail is held by your local post office for 10-15 days only, at which point it will be sent back to our office. If you need your order reshipped you will have to pay the $11+HST S/H fee.
#10 – If you are not able to pick up your order, email sales@shambhalamusicfestival.com as soon as your order is placed and ask for your tickets to be kept at will call. This option is open to ANYONE who asks. If your order has not been shipped, there is no extra charge. If your order has already been shipped, or shipped and returned to us, you will have to pay the $11+HST S/H fee to register for will call.
**Shambhala does not reimburse or replace lost, stolen or unused tickets. Your ticket is your responsibility to protect. If you fear losing it, email sales@SMF as soon as you place your order and ask for it to be kept at will call!!**
