Special Series Pavilion Pass

Join us for a special series of afternoon Pavilion Talks July 19-21

 

This year, in place of our single event tickets, we have a new offering—the Special Series Pavilion Pass! You can join us in the Sun Valley Pavilion for a series of three afternoon Pavilion Talks each day on July 20 & 21 ($150 per day) and for one very special talk on July 19 ($50). Speakers will be announced alongside our schedule and program in May and passes will be on sale June 2 directly from this page. Stay tuned for more information by subscribing to our email newsletter!

  • Please go directly to the Pavilion main staircase entry (West side) with your e-ticket(s). We will be scanning tickets/QR codes there.
  • Doors open for entry 30 minutes prior to each talk.
  • By attending any Writers’ Conference event, you agree to our photography terms: “During the course of the Sun Valley Writers’ Conference, we will be filming, photographing, and recording the overall experience, including all sessions and any Q&A that is included.
