Tickets are $65 for members and $75 for the general public. A new Premium Package ticket offering is available for “Songwriters Under the Stars” this year. The package includes one ticket with exclusive, front stage viewing in an Eno Lounger SL chair, two drink tickets and access to premium parking with a golf cart shuttle to the concert location.
