How does the buddy pass work?Buddy Passes are designed to help balance the number of leaders and followers at the Zouk Island Festival. Since the Follower Tickets were very limited and have already sold out, followers will need to purchase their tickets through the Buddy System. With the Buddy System, you purchase two tickets together—a Leader Ticket and a Follower Ticket—at a discounted rate compared to buying them individually. This ensures that both leaders and followers can attend the festival in a balanced and harmonious environment. By opting for a Buddy Pass, both of you can enjoy the festival while also benefiting from a reduced price. This system ensures a more enjoyable and balanced dance experience for everyone. You do not need to be a couple or romantic partners to take advantage of the Buddy Pass. You can buy the Buddy Pass with someone from your Zouk community or even from another Zouk community. So, if you are a follower, start looking for a leader who also wants to attend the festival, and you can purchase your tickets together.

How do I register if I’m coming with a partner/friend and we want to stay in the same room?That is very simple. You can either buy a Buddy Pass together or each purchase your own individual ticket for the festival. Then, separately, you can book a room on the Venue & Hotel page. Each room can accommodate up to two people. When booking, you will need to enter your festival ticket number.
