Sugar Maple Patron - Donor Level Tickets Are Always Available

The festival is not possible without the ongoing support of our sponsors and individual donors that help support our mission. Our Sugar Maple Patron, Donor Level ticket provides you with full weekend access to the festival. It is also a tax deductible donation, and will provide us with the additional financial support that we need to continue to bring quality acts and music education to Madison every year. Consider supporting the festival at this level, and we will also gift you with your first drink at the show in our commemorative steel Sugar Maple Festival pint glass!
