FIRESTARTER MEMBERSHIP PROGRAM
Become a Founding Member
Fire in the Mountains was built by a community of people who believe music, culture, and connection to place matter. The Firestarter Membership Program is an opportunity to become part of that story in a deeper way.
More than early access and exclusive experiences,
Firestarter Membership is a commitment to the future of Fire in the Mountains. Members help strengthen the festival, support the artists and communities that make it possible, and ensure this gathering continues to grow while staying true to its roots.
From the charter members who spark the fire, to those who carry it forward, to the founding patrons whose legacy becomes part of the festival itself, each level offers a unique way to participate in the future of Fire in the Mountains.
Memberships are intentionally limited. Once filled, they become part of the permanent history of the festival.
