The Savannah Music Festival (SMF) new Explorer Pass provides free admission to world-class concerts for Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (SCCPSS) students throughout the 2023 Savannah Music Festival, which runs from March 23 through April 8.
With the new Explorer Pass, current Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (SCCPSS) students can get free entry for themselves and a parent, guardian or chaperone to any of the SMF’s impressive lineup of general admission shows. The 2023 Savannah Music Festival offers a diverse range of genres, including jazz, blues, world music, bluegrass, Americana and classical. The 2023 festival includes more than 30 general admission performances in historic venues across Savannah.
“We are so excited about the new Explorer Pass,” said Savannah-Chatham County Public School System Superintendent Dr. Ann Levett. “Giving our young scholars and their families access to first-class musical experiences is one of the things we love most about the Savannah Music Festival. We hope the exposure to all types of music inspires our students and gives them new windows on the world.”
To get free tickets through the new Explorer Pass program, SCCPSS students can report to the venue Box Office an hour prior to the listed showtime to show an active school-issued ID, report card or other communication from SCCPSS indicating that child is an enrolled student. The student and a parent, guardian, or chaperone can then enter the venue and choose their seats.
Explorer Pass Tips
Look at the start time of the concert. You want to make sure you are at the venue one hour before the concert starts. That’s when the on-site box office opens, and that’s where you will pick up your explorer passes.
Have your student show their SCCPSS student ID to the friendly box office staff at the venue beginning one hour before the start of the show. The box office staff will print you two tickets – one for the SCCPSS student, and one for their adult family member or chaperone. Make sure your student brings their student ID! That’s the only way SMF can issue the Explorer Pass tickets.
When the doors open, go inside and pick your seats and enjoy the show.
For more information about the new SMF Explorer Pass or to search 2023 Savannah Music Festival general admission shows, please visit www.savannahmusicfestival.org online.
