Event Pass Information

We’re just DAYS away from CWF’25, and we’re down to the last few passes before we hit our attendance cap! We expect to sell out of weekend passes by Sunday evening!

Note: Intensives, Competition Entries and Add-ons will still be available to purchase online!

In addition to Full Weekend Passes, we’re offering a limited number of Single Day and Evening-Only passes to accommodate those who can’t attend the entire event. But act fast—once these passes are gone, registration will close, and we’ll begin a Waitlist.

If you are interested in Spectator Passes, please contact us via email as to the availability of these passes.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: At-the-Door registration will NOT be available, as the event is selling out!

ALL WEEKEND PASSES HAVE SOLD OUT!

If you would like to be added to the waitlist for a pass, please send us an email at cwf25@charlottewesties.com, In the email, please include the type of pass you are interested in purchasing.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: At-the-Door registration will NOT be available!

NOTE: Intensives, Competition Entries and Add-ons will continue to be available to purchase online!

PLEASE NOTE: In efforts to ensure an enjoyable experience for our attendees, Charlotte WestieFest will be capping the event at 900 weekend passes. This will allow us to still host the Friday and Saturday night secondary room dances as well as offer a limited number of day and evening passes to accommodate those who cannot commit to attending for the entire weekend. We did not make this decision lightly, but it is our desire and commitment to ensure that the dance floor and event can accommodate those who attend in a comfortable and welcoming manner based on space considerations and other factors.

Thank you to the entire WCS community for your support. We can’t wait to welcome you to an unforgettable weekend!!

For those unable to attend for the entire weekend, there will be Single-Day & Evening-Only passes available “at-the-door”. ATD pricing will be announced as we get closer to the event.

In addition, for any non-dancers who might want to come and support their friends as they compete or just socialize and enjoy time with friends, a limited number of Spectator pass options will also be available “at-the-door”.
