" I feel beyond empowered after attending Roam. The best part was finding my people-women who cuss, embibe, and ride! I've always felt out of place in most women+ realms, because I have always had to tame my wild side in order to be accepted. NOT AT ROAM! You can 100% be who you really are without any judgment. It truly was a magical experience." - Roam Fest 2023 Participant


" Roam was such an incredible experience. I was pretty anxious going into it and didn’t know what to expect, but the staff was so welcoming and helpful that my anxiety started to fade immediately. Then, once I realized I wasn’t the only trans woman at the festival I felt so much better. Thank you so much to the Roam founders, staff, volunteers, vendors, and attendees for creating such an inclusive community and welcoming me with open arms. I can’t wait to see y’all in Fruita next year!" - Roam Fest 2023 Participant
"This is my second Roam Fest and it continues to amaze me! Each year I've second guessed whether I should go because of missing work, travel time, cost etc. but when I get there I remember why none of that matters! There are very very few spaces I have been in that allow you to show up as your whole self the way Roam Fest does. It is a place where you can let your hair down and diving into mountain biking however you feel fit." - Roam Fest 2023 BIPOC Fellow


"One of the most thoroughly planned out festivals with something for everyone. Hands down the best festival for what you pay!" - Roam Fest 2023 Participant
"RoamFest is the most self-affirming thing I’ve done in years. I’ve struggled with my weight and my body and how I fit in the adventure sports world. I have *never* felt so accepted and welcomed - it was brilliant! I felt like a fully accepted member of a community." - Roam Fest 2023 Participant


"This is by far the best weekend of the year, like better than birthdays and Christmas combined. No where on earth but Roam Fest can you experience world class shredding, meet new insta friends, feel totally empowered being a femme and hit repeat for three days straight." - Roam Fest 2023 Participant

"I had THE BEST time with my fellow mom shredders. Such a great excuse to get away. We are already planning our trip next year!" - Roam Fest 2023 Participant


"Twelve outta ten would recommend! I learned so much more about bikes, biking, and rad women in this community. The vibe of Roam is fun, welcoming, and getting the eff after it." - Roam Fest 2023 Participant


"One of the best run events I've ever attended. Add in a slew of rad women in all shapes, sizes, and backgrounds and you'll leave this event with tired legs, more laugh lines, and a happy heart." - Roam Fest 2023 Participant

"It was like the Romie Homies reached into my brain and planned my perfect weekend. I LOVE bikes and this weekend was my version of Disneyland. Everything was so well planned out, from the communications to events to small things like snacks for the movie and clean port-o-potties. More importantly, I felt cared for and like I was family. Thank you for such a great weekend." - Roam Fest 2023 Participant


"Roam was my first MTB festival and may ruin me for anything else. It was well ran and an absolute blast. There is something powerful in spending all that time with fellow women/ femmes. The silent dance party was the most magical experience I’ve ever had. All the demo suppliers had plenty of bikes and everyone had XS options which made me stoked!!" - Roam Fest Participant


WAITLIST, TRANSFERS, & REFUND POLICY

WAITLIST

  • GET ON THE WAITLIST! Our waitlist may be your only hope of getting into the festival once we've sold out. Be sure to register your entire party individually as Eventbrite releases waitlisted tickets one at a time and cannot release multiple tickets to a single person.
  • The waitlist will open up if/when event passes sell out after Phase 3.
  • Please leave your email address AND phone number so we can double-notify you should a ticket become available. Also, e-mail address typos happen.
  • When a ticket becomes available, you will have 24 hours to register. Once this time frame has passed, your spot will automatically be released to the next person on the waitlist.
  • We cannot re-release you a ticket if you miss your registration window.
  • See our Ticket Transfers policy below

NO REFUNDS

  • We do not offer refunds to this event. We understand illness, injury, or family emergencies do happen. While we’ll always want to help, please be ready for our policies to still apply.
  • We DO allow you to transfer your tickets to another qualifying individual 48 hours prior to festival start.
  • We CAN process event registration transfers to next year's event (less Eventbrite fees) up to 30 days prior to festival start.
  • Again, we do not offer refunds.
  • e.g. Michelle buys a ticket to a Taylor Swift concert, but she cannot attend. Swifty still has to pay her people and for the concert even though Michelle won't be there and thus, Michelle understands that Taylor Swift is not able to refund her concert ticket. In this situation you are Michelle and we are Taylor Swift. Thanks for understanding we still have to pay our people and for the hundreds of thousands of dollars in event costs regardless whether you join us or not.

HOW TICKET TRANSFERS WORK

  • Up to 48 hours prior to the festival a registered pass holder can transfer your ticket yourself to another qualifying participant via Eventbrite.
  • We may be able to assist and open your spot to a waitlisted person, but cannot guarantee they will purchase your tickets (including add-ons) either partially, or in their entirety. You may be responsible for the costs of add-ons and opt to release your Festival Pass registration and recoup the associated costs.
  • No ticket transfers within 48 hours of the festival start date - our team is in the desert and cannot update/print our registration including critical participant vetting and emergency contact info.

HOW EVENT REGISTRATION TRANSFERS WORK

  • Up to 30 Days prior to the festival, a participant can transfer their ticket costs to Roam Fest Fruita 2025 less Eventbrite fees . Any additional year-over-year registration cost increases are the sole responsibility of ticket holder.
  • You can request an event registration trasfer via Eventbrite or contact us at hello@thisisroam.com
  • Eventbrite fees are non-refundable to both event organizers and participants.
  • No event registration transfers within 30 days of the festival start date.
