This ticket is a very nice condition, considering the weather circumstances during the concert weekend, see photo's for actual condition. Those are early tickets and therefor very rare and extremely hard to find.
This auction is only for the 3 Woodstock 1969 original tickets, not for any of the pictures that are only posted to get the total picture of the event.
Artists like Jimmy Hendrix, the Who, Jefferson Airplane, Cha Nan Na, Country Joe and the Fish, Janis Joplin, Joe Cocker, The Band, Ten Years After, Santana, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Grateful Dead, Canned Heat, etc, etc..... an endless list of pop and rock icons!
Those are pretty early tickets as one is in the 900 range and two are in the 1.000 range considering the fact that there were sold over 200.000 admission tickets in total......, the ticket shows signs of wear, has a little damage as can be seen in the photo's, but all in all, considering a almost 50 year old ticket, in a very good condition for it's age. This auction is for the ticket only.
The Woodstock Music & Art Fair—informally, the Woodstock Festival or simply Woodstock— was a music festival in the United States in 1969 which attracted an audience of over 400,000 (only a little over 200,000 tickets were sold). Scheduled for August 15–17 on a dairy farm in the Catskill Mountains of southern New York, northwest of New York City, it ran over to Monday, August 18.
Billed as "An Aquarian Exposition: 3 Days of Peace & Music", it was held at Max Yasgur's 600-acre (240 ha; 0.94 sq mi) dairy farm near the hamlet of White Lake in the town of Bethel. In Sullivan County, Bethel is 43 miles (70 km) southwest of the town of Woodstock in adjoining Ulster County.
During the sometimes rainy weekend, 32 acts performed outdoors before an audience of more than 400,000 people. It is widely regarded as a pivotal moment in popular music history, as well as the definitive nexus for the larger counterculture generation
Rolling Stone listed it as one of the 50 Moments That Changed the History of Rock and Roll.
The event was captured in the Academy Award-winning 1970 documentary movie Woodstock, an accompanying soundtrack album, and Joni Mitchell's song "Woodstock", which commemorated the event and became a major hit for both Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and Matthews Southern Comfort. Joni Mitchell said, “Woodstock was a spark of beauty” where half-a-million kids “saw that they were part of a greater organism.”
In 2017, the festival site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
