Travel Documents
You do NOT need a passport to travel to Jamaica yet, but it does make going through immigration a little faster. If you do not have a passport you DO need a government issued photo ID (a driver’s license), and your birth certificate. The birth certificate can be a copy but it must be a copy issued by the state or town or county you were born in. It cannot be a Xerox copy, a hospital souvenir certificate, it must be government issued. You can not board the plane without these items. (Need a copy of your birth certificate? See vitalchek.com
If you are traveling on our air/hotel/shows/transfers package, you will also need to fill out a Tour Particpant Form. That’s available at https://www.jamminjamaica.com/forms/TourParticipant_Jamm.pdf or at Sunsplash’s site.
Single Band Laminates
The lineup for Jamm In Jamaica 2006 was designed to have something for just about everybody. We have had a large number of people sign up for this great trip through our package deals, and quite a few people purchased all access festival laminates as well. There have been a growing number of emails regarding questions about single band only laminates. Given that all of the bands on this trip would love to see as many people as they can at all of their shows, we initially decided not to provide single band laminates.
However, Jamm in Jamaica recognizes that for many people, this will be their first opportunity to visit this magical island and might want to use some of their time there to do some exploring and other activities in addition to seeing great music. We also realize that some people are bringing their families along, and scheduling a babysitter or nanny for 20 shows is a lot to ask, and so would need to pick and choose the shows they go to. All laminates are non transferable. A photo ID will be absolutely necessary to attend all events.
Single band laminates will be available for Donna The Buffalo, Railroad Earth, and Under Full Sail. Each laminate will be different, and the single band laminates will be good only for the band represented on the laminate and the end of the week festival.
The price of the single band laminate is $225.00 which can be paid by cashier’s check or money order, or by using our credit card service. We suggest you simply send a U.S. Post Office money order because the service charge for the credit card is a bit pricey.
Paying by Credit Card
We didn’t offer credit card laminate sales earlier because the service charge is so high, but with all of the emails about it, we decided to let the consumer decide what he or she wants to do. To order your laminate(s) by credit card head to: https://jamminjamaica.baselineticketing.com
All concert laminates will be distributed in Negril, we’ll let you know when and where. You will need to bring your photo ID to pick up your laminate.
Remember our air/hotel/transfers/shows package includes an all-access laminate and is still the best price out there!
If you purchased an all-access laminate and want to exchange it for a single band laminate, contact info@proactivemgt.com
